In a recent study, it has been hinted that this US city may face Mega Flood in near future.

The name of that city is California.

Co-author of the study Daniel Swain said that such massive statewide floods have occurred every century or two in California over the past millennia.

Such a flood happened in California in the year of 1862 and it stretched up to 300 miles long and 60 miles across.

As per the study, now a flood of this category would displace 5-10 million people.

It would cut off the state’s major freeways for perhaps weeks or months with massive economic effects, and submerge major Central Valley cities as well as parts of Los Angeles.

According to the study, "Parts of cities such as Sacramento, Stockton, Fresno and Los Angeles would be under water….

… even with today’s extensive collection of reservoirs, levees and bypasses. It is estimated that it would be a $1 trillion disaster, larger than any in world history,"

The study said, Climate change would be the main force behind such disaster.
