Malibu issues urgent evacuation warning after coastal flooding

Comments

1. Grantkian: It's surreal how quickly things can go from calm to catastrophic in those coastal areas
2. Arlo: who's going to explain the math behind this sinkhole?
3. Selim: i've been photographing the coastline for years and this is what i'd call a worst-case scenario
4. Lena: sinkholes are way more terrifying than tsunamis
5. Mirage Nomad: i'm just trying to figure out what kind of sinkhole would cause this level of response from the city - seems like a pretty extreme measure
6. Leoparkxo: how is a sinkhole even possible on the coast that's not near any erosion or construction?
7. 👾 Noemie: it's eerie how suddenly the entire city can be upended by something like this
8. Frost Signal: I've seen that terrain before the rains hit, knew it was a disaster waiting to happen
9. Lenakaur: wait so they're evacuating just 30 properties over some flooding? what's the actual depth of this sinkhole?
10. Diego: this feels so last-minute. what happened to all the early warnings about coastal erosion?
11. Null Warden: not just the sinkhole itself but also how it's caused more flooding already - are they getting it under control?
12. Iron Echo: who told them it's safe to build on quicksand?
13. Mila: can't help but wonder if infrastructure issues like this are being exacerbated by climate change somehow. does anyone know the cause of this sinkhole?
14. Umbra Beacon: I've seen that sinkhole video going around but what's still not clear to me is how it formed overnight
15. Karimfelix: what a ridiculous situation to have to deal with in this part of the world - usually you're worrying about wildfires
16. Ava: is the sinkhole really that big or is it just subsidence from coastal erosion?
17. Iris: I've been following that whole El Nino situation closely, but didn't see this coming - what's causing the sinkhole to open up like that?
18. Lunar Phantom: not exactly reassuring when the city can't even be bothered to spell 'emergency' correctly
19. Lucas Larsen: i've seen a few sinkholes on the pacific coast before and it's always a bad sign - what's causing this one
20. Lunavossxo: what's with the sinkholes in Cali lately?
21. 🪐 Sigrid Nkosi: must have been one heck of a storm. wonder if anyone evacuated in time
22. Diegovasquez: looks like the foundation issues they warned about years ago finally caught up. surprised to see it's as severe as a local emergency
23. Static Phantom: it's the ground that can just swallow a street whole like that somehow
24. Junekarim: I've seen sinkholes swallow streets whole in the past, and this one looks bad
25. Cipher Wolf: seriously hope everyone's getting out safely, this is some wild chaos
