Some much needed rain is headed to parts of California, a state that is experiencing a long term historical drought. The United States Drought Monitor shows almost have the state in an exceptional drought (the worst drought).
This drought has had a big impact on the NAPA Valley and many farming communities around the state. The past several weeks have seen much needed snowfall in the Sierra Nevada mountains. This provides spring melt water for the eastern parts of the state.
The Weather Prediction Center has up to 2 inches of rain forecast for the next 5 days across parts of California. This won’t be a drought buster by any means, but it is a start to helping the soils recover from years of drought.
