Rivers remain high as storms continued to roll into the state.
This week, storms have increased their spacing, allowing more recovery time for residents. The jet stream has shifted weather patterns to the southern part of the state, allowing rivers in northern California to recede. In the rest of the West, precipitation was the heaviest across the southern states, while states along the Canadian border remained dry. The snowpack across the West is following a typical El Nino pattern at this time, with heavy snow in the south and below average amounts in northern states. Northern states also experienced warm weather this week, with new record highs in Alaska and Montana.
