But this year, after one of the wettest winters in modern times, the storied Tulare Lake is re-emerging. The rivers and creeks that fed it have swelled with so much rain and snowmelt that they’re overwhelming the dams and levees designed to hold the water back. Already, a small inland sea has formed. When the wind picks up, there are even waves and whitecaps.
The stunning influx of water has set off what many fear is a slow-rolling crisis. Farmland is being submerged and roads and rural homes are going under. With heavy runoff from the mountains expected through spring, several low-lying communities in Kings and Tulare counties, if they haven’t taken in water yet, remain at chronic risk of flooding.
I agree with you. It's all a money grab.

Climate change lets me down. These Californians weren't killed.
They were supposed be sunken into the ocean by now.
Based lake.
