California…one of the driest state in USA…has been surprisingly deluged with floods…and along with it…gales of incessant winds.
At least 18 people have been confirmed to be dead in the recent series of storms that have lashed Western USA in the massive rainfall reportedly not seen in over 150 years.
Thunderstorms have soaked parts of the state and more rain is expected in the coming days.
More than 20 million people have been alerted amid fears of mudslides spreading to Los Angeles and San Diego.
At least 34,000 people still remain under evacuation orders….and around 5 million have been put on Flood watch list in the region.
But why is a state that is so drought-prone…and considered one of the arid region in USA being battered by floods, landslides and storms. In this video, we decode exactly that…and tell you the reasons behind this unusual phenomenon.
