Beyond the Buildings What Was it Really Like to Live Through the California Floods? Our Team Spills
The Golden State has endured months of inundations from atmospheric rivers and bomb cyclones. As a result, the news is awash with images of submerged streets and mudslides, replacing our collective imagination of California as a state perennially filled with sunny beaches and golden hills. But not everyone in the state has had the same experience with this weird weather.
In Part 1 of this episode, host Maiclaire Bolton-Smith sits down with Kent David, a senior leader in analytics consulting, and Tom Larsen, an expert in catastrophe risk management and insurance solutions, to discuss what it has really been like to live through the continuous rain that has made headlines in California since these atmospheric rivers began at the start of the year.
