Severe flooding in Bolivia have effected an estimated 60,000 families. La Niña is such a beast. Rawr:

The flood waters, which have killed at least 60 people, are threatening to inundate the Amazon city of Trinidad, sparking large-scale evacuations.
The government has declared a state of emergency in the worst-hit areas.
The rains, which have swept away crops and communication lines, are blamed on the La Nina weather phenomenon.
La Nina is a periodic cooling of the waters in the Pacific Ocean, which results in severe weather conditions.

Severe conditions in our pants. For serious, though, our hearts go out to the people of Bolivia.

Our heart-ons, however, are all for La Niña. ‘Sup girl.
