on a related non-trump note - I hope that the storms will make the county/state change their building codes (similar to what happened in Florida after some of the major hurricanes).
in San Fran they reworked the coes related to earthquakes
but maybe requiring non-asphalt shingles - replacing them with tile or metal and requiring windows to have one layer of heat resistant glass - and replacing exterior wood with stucco?
It might bring insurance companies back to the state
And while I have no love for the new prez - I can see the Feds saying "we're not going to bail you out with taxpayer money if you keep doing the same things over and over"
unlike North Carolina/Tennessee with the flooding - fire season in California is a regular thing - and it may be heading to year round threats.
