The Next Big City to Flood Could Be…

Sacramento?

That’s what the Sacramento Bee says.

Sacramento's levees offer less protection than those in many other cities. Officials worry they could fail or overtop if a large late winter or early spring storm system brought more water than they were designed to handle.

Wow, sound familiar? Levees may fail in a strong storm. It’s crazy to hear that a Katrina-sized disaster can happen to another even bigger city. Let’s hope they do something about it before it happens.
