Houseboats sit in a narrow section of water in a depleted Lake Oroville in Oroville, Calif., last month. Lake Oroville is at 23% of its capacity because of extreme levels of drought.

Last year in 2017 it's like that. When nonstop raining season came, it flooded the dam.  ;D
Back in 1997, rivers and lakes were flooded. The water reached 15 feet above bridges and park resort. Every Oroville citizens fled to higher terrain while others fled to another city like Chico and Paradise.
