Normally we get these rains every winter and it doesnt create damage here but sometimes the pressure system from Alaska gets pushed south and bypass us. Hence when CA gets the rain, we get mild winters.
My family lives near LaConchita so my father has friends living there. He has been worried about them. This is the second time and the last time, my father s good friend lost his house. The state wouldnt let him go back to the house to retrieve any belongings so the house was left there for years before getting salvaged. This friend had another house built there so hopefully it didnt strike him again.
It is not an action of God. It is just that California gets these heavy rains every decade or so and the hills are not used to having so much water that they become oversaturated, creating mudslides.
My grandparents live on a hill but it is much more stable than the hill in La Conchita so Im relieved. They have been very worried since the rains begun.
That is how nature works its course.
