[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 428435, member: 21536"] Yep, last I heard it was about 200,000 impacted. I had heard some complaints that the mandatory evacuation was overkill, but in my view it is much better to be safe than sorry. I think the authorities made a good call. I also heard the town of Oroville would be hit by a 100' wave if the dam let loose. I don't know if that is true, but it is sure scary enough for me. I attempted to attach a before and after image here. Couple of years ago this Lake was pretty much a mud hole. OOPS - Just realized I attached a before/after of Folsom Lake (near Sacramento) instead of Lake Oroville. Still is fairly descriptive of the impact on many of our larger reservoirs. [/QUOTE]
