This is one minute away from my home in Santa Barbara right now. This creek rarely even has water in it. Luckily my family and house are safe, but don’t forget that these floods are a direct result of the CLIMATE CRISIS, and this is just the beginning… pic.twitter.com/tWobr8ERDB

That's just some crazy stuff. It's looking really bad out there and more is on the way. Here's hoping everyone stays safe and it clears up soon.
California has been in a severe drought for years, this storm will obviously help that situation but it's causing its own level of destruction.
