    California is battered by Mother Nature: Death Valley FLOODS
    as tornado warning issued for San Diego and 5.1-magnitude
    earthquake rocks the state... before Tropical Storm Hilary
    smashes LA with 80mph winds

    Death Valley National Park has closed due to flooding as a
    result of the downpour brought by Tropical Storm Hilary

    The park, often one of the hottest and driest places on earth,
    released shocking footage of streams coursing through its arid
    land

    Also on Sunday a 5.1 magnitude quake centered in Ventura County
    was felt across parts of Southern California on Sunday afternoon

    A tornado warning has been issued for San Diego and the
    surrounding Alpine and Descanso areas

    . . .

    Nature's out to GET California it seems !

    Actually the flooding will also push into
    most of Nevada too.

    That part of the world is NOT set up for heavy
    rain. The soil is hard, long-baked, the water
    either runs downhill really really fast or it
    finds a chink and creates huge mud-slides.
