An evacuation was called in Oroville, California when a massive hole was discovered in an emergency spillway which catches excess water when Lake Oroville's water level rises to overflow the dam, threatening communities downstream. some people just had a few minutes to evacuate, which was very chaotic. Stores closed and shelters opened.
I hope that everyone stays safe even though we cant control natural disasters. I hope that everyone finds the shelter they need in order to stay safe. There are so many natural disasters around the world that we cant prevent, but we can do our best to protect ourselves.

I'm so happy they have opened up shelters, I feel horrible that they have to leave their homes and move because of this evacuation.
