West Coast drought reveals surprises beneath Lake Mead

West Coast drought reveals surprises beneath Lake Mead

The drought emergency in the west stretches beyond California. The water level in Nevada’s Lake Mead is at a record low of about 37 percent. John Blackstone reports on how the nation’s largest man-made reservoir is now bursting with surprises for history buffs.

    Stupid people who talk about tourism and war, insted of famine, and no drinking water, or fresh food to eat. Dam it I’m thirsty, oh well at least we all got to see the B1 bomber.

    Does anyone else see the sad irony of tourists driving from their homes with watered lawns and gardens to see a dried-up reservoir?

  3. Brian Wilson on August 22, 2021 at 10:15 am

    Well let california do without they want all the illegals they can get talk about talk about using a water resource up

    Did it reveal how Polsie and Newsom killed California?… That’s would be a great episode on unsolved murders!…

    California having an ocean right next to them, should have figured out years ago how to make the ocean water usable for drinking and whatever else they needed it for.

    I would suggest using water from the Columbia River. But not to water people’s ornamental citrus trees in Phoenix. Word of the day kids, Zeroscaping. We don’t grow lawns in the desert. We have zeroscape in the desert. A park with grass is a luxury in the desert, and to many in one desert city is an overindulgence.

    make it rain: Cloud seeding, the main type of intentional weather modification, began in the late 1940s. The basic idea was to use aircraft or rockets to inject silver iodide or another substance into the atmosphere to mimic ice nuclei. The amount of rain or snow a cloud can produce depends on a balance between the number of ice nuclei inside it and the amount of water available to grow around those nuclei. Clouds often lack naturally occurring ice nuclei, so injecting them with silver iodide particles (which are very similar in structure to ice) increases the number of nuclei. This makes the clouds more efficient at generating ice crystals that either fall as snowflakes or melt to produce raindrops, depending on temperatures in and beneath the cloud. Cloud seeding is also used to disperse fog banks near some airports.

    Would it not make sense to clean up the bottom now while the level is low

    They are showing footage in 2021, when this is old news.

    This vid was made years ago. Stuff has been going on for a while.

    It’s 2021 you wanna come to the present

  15. Brodrick Travis on August 22, 2021 at 10:25 am

    Ridiculous you guys aren’t understanding what climate change is doing to our planet as you can see here in this lake is drying out and it’s even further now than it was then sadly everyone is making it seem like it is a beautiful sight when it is a terrible thing and we have a increased Demand on water in the area but there isn’t enough water coming to the area get ready to hear the next idea for pipelines and more my point is that this is not a good thing that the water is receding so fast and that we all need to do something globally to fix all of our Global issues

  16. John Mendoza on August 22, 2021 at 10:28 am

    This is all just a plot so the boomers can raise the B-29 without the courier

    You know, we’ll build pipes to pump oil across states, why don’t we build a WATER pipeline across the US to feed these places that are dying for water, from the east coast where they are getting drowned with water. How’s that for a infrastructure modification. They could dump some on the farms on the way also, ensuring plenty of food.

  19. Eagle on August 22, 2021 at 10:29 am

    Imagine living in a beautiful area and being forced to move so people could flood your home.

  20. Super Street on August 22, 2021 at 10:31 am

    Earth be like, here’s a place it’s so inhospitable absolutely nothing should live there, humans be like, let’s damn this valley turn it into a lake and waste trillions of Tara joules of energy on water irrigation because the earth is going to heat the water up and take it back to where it should be and where we should live.

  21. Ed Kendrick on August 22, 2021 at 10:34 am

    Why the drought? Check 1PacificRedwood channel for analysis.

  22. Natu Davis on August 22, 2021 at 10:34 am

    How many ppl clicked this video thinking this was the 2021 Drought?…damn…smh

  23. Manuel Festoli on August 22, 2021 at 10:35 am

    Surprise? Aliens, Bigfoot, Jimmy Hoffa? If it’s a flooded town, no.

    Yeah who needs water on a lake in the desert

  27. Kevin Bergin on August 22, 2021 at 10:45 am

    Droughts can be fun and fundamental!

  28. Fire Thylacine on August 22, 2021 at 10:47 am

    John Powell warned us when he mapped out the watersheds of the American Southwest that it would be unwise to settle the region en masse, as there simply wasn’t enough water. Of course, politicians and businessmen laughed at him, and mocked him some more when the miracle of the Hoover dam "proved" that the West would have as much water as it needed, nature be dammed. Of course, you can only push nature so far before it pushes back.

    The B-29 was not the most popular US heavy bomber by a long shot during ww2. B-17 dropped 640k tons of bombs, B-24 around 400k, B-29 only 100k. Perhaps in the Pacific theater it was the most popular heavy bomber.

  31. Donald Jones on August 22, 2021 at 10:51 am

    they might want to remove trees and bushes that have grown up since the water has receded

  32. tylercw07 on August 22, 2021 at 10:52 am

    Me : imagine its the b29 from fnv lol
    2 minutes later : NO WAY-

  33. SCRAPEY HAWKINS on August 22, 2021 at 10:52 am

    So correct me if I’m wrong, lake Mead was created for drinking water?…. And a town sits under along with airplanes…and boats are on it everyday….

  34. Brian Jewell yeah that guy on August 22, 2021 at 10:53 am

    Remains of folks that refused to leave even? Be interesting to search…

  35. Captain Cook on August 22, 2021 at 10:54 am

    Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.

  36. JamMasterRon on August 22, 2021 at 10:54 am

    Lake mead will be a pond soon

  37. Max Hart on August 22, 2021 at 10:55 am

    thank the good lord for global warming hey

  38. YAAZHINI S on August 22, 2021 at 10:55 am

    Wow

  39. Player Prime on August 22, 2021 at 10:56 am

    Wow this is something

  40. Arc0w on August 22, 2021 at 10:56 am

    Leave it to the US to make something terrible still sound like a blessing, new beaches, new historic treasures overall new places to visit, great.

  41. albert dean castillo on August 22, 2021 at 10:56 am

    If we’re standing here 1990’s we we’re under water it’s not going happen because you were 4th grader 🤔

  44. Judgment Proof on August 22, 2021 at 10:58 am

    I guess if I didn’t want to leave for whatever reason, I wouldn’t leave either! At least during that time the people who lived there doubted their area would ever flood. Well, there came a time things changed from the usual norm and they were forced out

  45. Snow Zen on August 22, 2021 at 11:00 am

    The California drought is caused by almond famers. California rerouted water to accommodate farmers who only make up 3% of gdp. Why?

  46. YOYO YOOO on August 22, 2021 at 11:00 am

    Imagen there is a big water drought what is crucial for everyone, probably made by climate change and the exaggerated water usage of the 2021 century. But hey now divers can reach a useless plane under water. Man it sounds like these people have no brain.

  47. James Stewart on August 22, 2021 at 11:02 am

    Build solar powered desalination units. Earlier is better than later.

    Exactly the same thing happened in my country of origin. Then we took heed of the following, we did it and against all scientific predictions and meaningless plans, it rained…

    When I shut up heaven and there is no rain, or command the locusts to devour the land, or send pestilence among My people, if My people who are called by My name will humble THEMSELVES HUMBLE, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to prayer made in this place.
    II Chronicles 7:13‭-‬15 NKJV

    God(Satan), has the whole entire world believing that "climate change" is doing this. Nooooo….

    This is all YAHUAH’s work, people in these last days want to disobey the Torah, which was given to Moses at Mt. Ciyniy(Sinai). Therefore his wrath has come upon the Earth. Abd it’s only going to get worse.

    And I called for a drought upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the grain, and upon the new wine, and upon the oil, and upon that which the ground brings forth, and upon men, and upon cattle, and upon all the labor of the hands. CHAGGAI (HAGGAI) 1:11 CEPHER

    Out of the south comes the whirlwind: and cold out of the north. By the breath of El frost is given: and the breadth of the waters is straitened. Also by watering he wearies the thick cloud: he scatters his bright cloud: And it is turned round about by his counsels: that they may do whatsoever he commands them upon the face of the world in the earth. He causes it to come, whether for destruction, or for his land, or for mercy. IYOV (JOB) 37:9-13 CEPHER

    For the wicked, that denied to know you, were scourged by the strength of your arm: with strange rains, hails, and showers, were they persecuted, that they could not avoid, and through fire were they consumed. CHOKMAH SHALOMAH (WISDOM OF SOLOMON) 16:16 CEPHER

    For he says to the snow, Be on the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength. IYOV (JOB) 37:6 CEPHER

    I would seek unto Yahuah, and unto YAHUAH would I commit my cause: Which does great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number: Who gives rain upon the earth, and sends waters upon the fields: IYOV (JOB) 5:8-10 CEPHER

    And also I have withheld the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest: and I caused it to rain upon one city, and caused it not to rain upon another city: one piece was rained upon, and the piece whereupon it rained not withered. AMOC (AMOS) 4:7 CEPHER

    YAHUAH is what they are referring to as climate change or nature or whatever it is. And he’s punishing the earth with plagues because alot of people have forgotten their creator.

    Aluah of Abraham isaac and Jacob and their decendants whom are the Negroes, Native Americans and their mixed decendants. Yes the negroes are indeed the decendants of Abraham isaac and Jacob.

    Study the scriptures.

    YAHUAH is calling a drought for America, water is being cut off by him now as we speak.
    A drought is upon her waters; and they shall be dried up: for it is the land of graven images, and they are mad upon their idols. YIRMEYAHU (JEREMIAH) 50:38 CEPHER
    (BABYLON AMERICA’S REIGN IS SLOWLY COMING TO AN END!!!
