The cold upper low pressure system that brought moderate to heavy precipitation across much of the area on April 5 and 6 was situated off the southern California coast on April 7 then tracked slowly northeast toward central California on April 8 and across the area on April 9. As a result, additional precipitation spread into Kern County during the evening of April 7 and spread northward across the area on April 8. This system produced periods of heavy rainfall across Kern County on April 8 where there were widespread reports of a half inch to an inch of rainfall which resulted in several instances of debris flows and nuisance roadway flooding. Further north, much of Fresno, Kings and Tulare Counties measured between a quarter and a half inch of liquid precipitation while areas north of Fresno County generally picked up between a tenth of an inch to a quarter inch of liquid precipitation. Several stations above 5500 feet in Kern and Tulare Counties picked up between 3 and 6 inches of new snowfall. The precipitation finally ended by the evening of April 9 as the low moved out of our area.
