The dam itself is apparently holding, but the Emergency Spillway which is being used for the first time in the 50 year history of the dam is eroding away quickly and expected to fail. Oroville is below the dam.
Residents have been told to evacuate. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |

Sounds like Harvey and his wife are ok also, with their house on high ground.
