Authorities lifted the evacuation order in California after controlling the risks associated with a damaged dam. Around 20,000 evacuees can return home after the Oroville Dam overflowed due to rain, compromising spillways. Residents were initially warned of a potential dam collapse. Many evacuees, especially those with limited resources, sought shelter as they couldn't afford hotels. The timeline for dam repairs remains uncertain. Authorities continue to lower Lake Oroville's level in anticipation of more rain.
