Thanks, tundraboomer.
Here's a sacbee page with maps showing depth and times if the dam goes. Also has this caveat:"There is no map showing exactly what will happen if the emergency spillway collapses tonight [February 12, 2017]. Officials only have a map showing a failure of the dam. That worst case scenario is useful in that it shows where water goes and how fast it gets there." [
