Thunderstorms and heavy rain are returning to California. Here’s a timeline of what to expect

Just when you thought it was safe to go out without a raincoat — a big weather shift is coming to the Bay Area this week. Cooler temperatures, rain showers and even some thunderstorms and small hail are in the forecast. The most likely period for storms is Monday evening through Tuesday afternoon. Rainfall totals this week will generally stay under a tenth of an inch, reaching up to a half an inch in areas with heavy showers. Normal June rainfall amounts are generally less than a quarter inch for most of the Bay Area, making this an atypical drenching heading into early summer.

Beach erosion in California threatens nearly 70% of beaches: Survey

The impact of historic weather and changing climate trends threaten up to 70% of California beaches, which could be lost to erosion by the end of this century, a recent U.S. Geological survey found. The government report released earlier this year, which is in the process of being peer-reviewed for publication, found that between 25% and 70% of California’s beaches – and up to two-thirds of the state’s approximately 840 miles of coastline – could be washed away by 2100 due to rising sea levels caused by global temperature increases and greenhouse gas emissions.  In 2017, a study conducted by the same researchers found that between 31% and 67% were at risk of disappearing.

California pot trade linked to cartels leaves chemicals, dead animals

Standing atop a ridge in Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Mourad Gabriel watches as the last of the morning’s fog burns off, revealing the snow-capped Trinity Alps in the distance and a rolling sea of evergreens below. In this slice of rural California, about five hours north of San Francisco, narrow two-lane roads snake between towering mountains and ancient trees. … In the mountainous expanse below, drug trafficking organizations have taken advantage of Northern California’s remote wilderness to grow cannabis in deep defiance of the state’s marijuana and environmental regulations. They’ve poisoned soil, streams and wildlife with banned pesticides, leveled countless acres of forest, ignited massive wildfires, poached billions of gallons of precious water and left nothing but death and debris in their wake.

Northern California set to see impacts from low-pressure system

The temperature pendulum is set to swing back to cold as an area of low pressure quickly envelops Northern California on Tuesday, resurrecting the marine layer and reigniting some unstable air in the Sierra. Based on the intensity of Tuesday’s conditions in the forecast, some elements of the cold, unsettled weather pattern could persist through the end of the month. Tuesday’s rush of mist and high fog has a prime chance of reaching cities as far inland as Sacramento if an area of low pressure develops as strongly as some of the runs from weather models suggest.

California could lose two-thirds of its beaches by century’s end

Rising seas and hammering waves could radically transform California beaches by the end of the century, pushing the coastline straight through homes in Stinson Beach and right near a wastewater treatment plant in San Francisco. In Half Moon Bay, a beach beloved by surfers would lose all its sand. These are some of the worst-case scenarios in a new report projecting that a majority of California beaches could disappear by 2100 if more isn’t done to curb greenhouse emissions and take measures to protect the coast. The dire outlook, which foresees a range of 25% to 70% of the state’s beaches eroding completely, is based on models that incorporate historic rates of coastal erosion and projections for sea level rise and future wave heights. Though the study covers a long period, Californians got a preliminary glimpse this winter when storms pummeled local beaches.

Cleaning up ocean ‘garbage patches’ could destroy delicate ecosystems

Removing trash from the ocean may not be as harmless as it seems. That’s the conclusion of new research, which finds that marine dumps known as “garbage patches” are home to countless delicate creatures that could perish when people scoop debris from the sea. The oceans are home to five major garbage patches. They form far from land where strong currents swirl together, ferrying trash of all sizes. Some of it has been eroded by the churn into tiny debris known as microplastics. The largest of these marine debris fields is known as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Spanning 1.6 million square kilometers midway between Hawaii and the coast of California, it was first observed in 1997 by Charles Moore, an oceanographer and founder of Algalita Marine Research and Education.

Marin Municipal Water District defends plan for huge rate hike

The Marin Municipal Water District is poised to adopt one of its largest rate hikes in decades on Tuesday — a move that will increase water costs for customers by about 20% — but staff costs are not the driver, utility officials said. Agency staff and governing board members said one of the primary reasons behind the increase is to create new water supplies to avoid what occurred in 2021, when the agency faced the possibility of depleting its reservoirs amid a historic drought. … A common point of debate among ratepayers is how much of their water bills are going to staff wages, pensions and other benefits. Staffing costs account for about 40% of the district’s overall budget, but only comprise 4% of the proposed rate hike set to go before the board on Tuesday, said Bret Uppendahl, the district finance director. In 2022-2023, the district operated on a $116.1 million budget, which includes an operating budget of $92.2 million and a capital budget of $23.9 million.

Old lumber port preps for new life as California offshore wind hub

Eureka’s halcyon days as the “timber capital” of California are long gone, but the deepwater port city 270 miles north of San Francisco may see its fortunes turn as the hub of the state’s first foray in offshore wind energy. Located on Humboldt Bay at a particularly windy corner of the Northern California coast, Eureka sits across two of the five swaths of Pacific Ocean along the California coast that the federal government auctioned off to offshore wind developers this past December for a total of $757 million. The three other leases are on the Central Coast across from Morro Bay. California is a late entry in the race to explore offshore wind as a source of renewable energy because until recently it wasn’t feasible to deploy wind turbines on the steep ocean bottom off the Pacific Coast.

Remote Northern California reservoir stuck in drought despite winter’s water wealth

There has been a lot of attention on the parts of California that saw a huge winter. One example is the Tulare Lake basin, which has flooded again as the southern Sierra snowpack melts. Just about all of the state’s reservoirs are now near full. Shasta and Oroville, the two largest, are both well above their historical averages. Trinity Lake, however, is one Northern California reservoir where all the rain and snow hasn’t quite added up.  Trinity is at just 39 percent capacity — just half its historical average. It’s a reservoir that works a bit differently from others but the people living there think they missed out on this winter and they’re not happy about it.

Thursday Top of the Scroll: California drought driven by Australia’s wildfires and La Niña — study

California’s recent drought flared into the state’s driest three-year period on record before its abrupt end this spring, and few people saw it coming. Research published Wednesday suggests that the drought and the climatic conditions behind it had an unlikely driver: the Australian bushfires of 2019 and 2020. According to the groundbreaking study, the massive wildfires thousands of miles away unleashed so much smoke that they triggered a chain of events in the atmosphere, ultimately cooling the tropical Pacific Ocean and hastening formation of a La Niña climate pattern. La Niña, which stuck around for an unusual three winters, is associated with droughts throughout much of California.

Opinion: Clear Lake tule has rich history

The aquatic plant in Clear Lake that has been around the longest is without question the tule. That plant has been part of Clear Lake for at least several thousand years and is the most common aquatic plant on the lake. The tule is easily recognized. It’s a tall plant ranging in height from 3-6 feet. The stem is round, green in color and topped with brown seed clusters. The tule is almost always found standing in water. They are located around the lake and are a native plant. Tules die during the winter months and come back in the spring and early summer months. They are a hardy plant and can withstand drought as well as flooding.

Stinson Beach to begin study of sea-level rise defenses

As sea level rise threatens to inundate hundreds of homes, cut off roads and swallow the sands of Stinson Beach, Marin planners and town residents are preparing a new defense plan in an effort to save the popular coastal destination. Bordered by both the Pacific Ocean and Bolinas Lagoon, the town of about 500 residents is in the vanguard of Marin communities most vulnerable to rising ocean waters. Residents such as Jeff Loomans, who has owned a home in the town for 13 years, said the future their community faces is driven home by recent incidents such as the January winter storms that battered homes, broke pilings, flooded roads and washed away tons of sand.

California’s illicit marijuana is making water shortages worse

California’s stubbornly persistent illegal cannabis industry isn’t just undercutting the legal market — it’s also behind some of the world’s most blatant water theft. The state’s estimated $8 billion underground marijuana industry consumes staggering volumes of the precious resource, despite the state legalizing recreational use back in 2016. Some participants have been known to truck in stolen water, while others take it from fire hydrants or dig illegal wells. Years of off-and-on droughts in the state have exacerbated the problem. … An average cannabis plant requires as much as 5 gallons of water a day and takes anywhere from 90 to 275 days to grow … In California’s northern Siskiyou County, where there’s been a longtime heavy presence of illegal marijuana growing and drought conditions are among the worst in the state, Nores said he’s seen drilling of wells without permits and other obvious water theft.

NASA discovers potential effects of sea level rise for Northern California

Tidal flooding is not currently a regular issue for the California coast, but scientists say it could be by the end of this century. A new “Flooding Analysis Tool” produced by scientists at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory shows that in the coming decades, the number of days with tidal flooding will likely increase for all locations mapped around the United States. That increase in high tide flooding is directly linked to global sea level rise, spurred on by climate change. “There are things that cause sea level to rise and we know those things quite well,” said Dr. Ben Hamlington, who is one of the research scientists contributing to the flooding analysis tool at JPL. “On global scales we know that melting ice contributes to rising sea levels” Hamlington says the challenge is communicating how local factors will affect the severity of the impacts of sea level rise.

‘A new spike’ in global temperatures in the forecast

Forecasters from the World Meteorological Organization are reporting increased chances that the global climate pattern known as El Niño will arrive by the end of summer. With it comes increased chances for hotter-than-normal temperatures in 2024. While there is not yet a clear picture of how strong the El Niño event will be or how long it might last, even a relatively mild one could affect precipitation and temperature patterns around the world. … El Niño is associated with warmer-than-normal ocean surface temperatures in the central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean. In the United States, it tends to lead to rainier, cooler conditions in much of the South, and warmer conditions in parts of the North.

Big Valley Pomo respond to federal decision not to give Clear Lake hitch emergency listing

In the wake of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service saying it will not grant an emergency Endangered Species Act listing for the Clear Lake hitch, the Big Valley Band of Pomo Indians voiced its disappointment with the decision. On Tuesday, Fish and Wildlife announced that it wouldn’t give the listing, which the California Fish and Game Commission, Lake County’s tribes and the Center for Biological Diversity asked for the agency to do last year. The hitch, a fish native to Clear Lake, is known as the “chi” to Lake County’s tribes, for whom it has had an important cultural role due to being a primary food source historically.

Ocean water to fresh: First-of-its-kind wave-powered pilot project in Fort Bragg set to test

Fort Bragg is embarking on an innovative pilot project to desalt ocean water for the Mendocino Coast community using carbon-free wave action to power an energy-intensive process that in other cases generates climate changing greenhouse gases. The design comes from a young Quebec-based company called Oneka Technologies that makes floating, raft-like units containing the equipment needed to draw in water, pressurize and force it through reverse-osmosis membranes, then send it back to shore in a flexible pipe on the ocean floor. Fort Bragg will start with a single, 16-foot by 26-foot unit, anchored about a mile off shore of the Noyo Headlands, Public Works Director John Smith said. It could be deployed in perhaps six or eight months, once a variety of tests are completed to determine the best location for it.

Bolinas Lagoon wetlands project gets another $325K in county funding

A project that will aim to restore wetlands at the north end of Bolinas Lagoon and reduce the chance of flooding on the only road leading to Bolinas has reached its final design stage. Marin County supervisors have allocated an additional $325,000 to the project from Measure A sales tax revenue. The apportionment reflected increases in contracts with WRA Inc., a San Rafael environmental consultancy, for design and permitting work that now totals over $2 million. … Pearson said all of the additional $8 million in funding necessary for project has been secured, and an environmental analysis required by the California Environmental Quality Act will be made available to the public for comment in September. The lagoon work, which is slated to be done over two years, could begin as early as the summer of 2024.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife denies emergency listing for Clear Lake hitch; full species evaluation to be completed in 2025

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said Tuesday that it will not grant an emergency endangered species listing to the Clear Lake hitch, however, a listing under the agency’s regular process could still happen after a species evaluation is complete in two years’ time. The Fish and Wildlife Service said it will continue to invest in projects that support the hitch’s recovery while moving forward with its full evaluation of the species scheduled to be completed by January 2025. Lake County News reached out to Sarah Ryan, environmental director for the Big Valley Pomo on Tuesday, to ask for the tribe’s comment. However, as of press time, the tribe did not offer a formal response to the federal emergency listing decision.

California redwoods suffer from effects of climate change-fueled weather whiplash

At hundreds to thousands of years old, California’s iconic redwoods — the tallest trees in the world — have truly stood the test of time. But all of our atmospheric river storms have left them with a case of weather whiplash in this age of climate change. Todd Dawson is one of the only researchers in the world to explore an ecosystem few of us have ever seen up close before; he and his team are expert tree climbers, conducting research at the tops of the redwoods more than 200 feet high. … Dawson, a professor of integrative biology and environmental science policy & management at UC Berkeley, said the weather extremes are taking a toll on California’s official state trees. Dawson said coast redwoods and giant sequoias are now dealing with weather whiplash.

Hundreds of hazardous sites in California are at risk of flooding as sea level rises, study finds

Hundreds of hazardous industrial sites that dot the California coastline – including oil and gas refineries and sewage-treatment plants – are at risk of severe flooding from rising sea level if the climate crisis worsens, new research shows. If planet-warming pollution continues to rise unabated, 129 industrial sites are estimated to be at risk of coastal flooding by 2050 according to the study, published Tuesday in the journal Environmental Science & Technology by researchers from University of California at Los Angeles and Berkeley, as well as Climate Central. Researchers also found that residents living within a kilometer — about 0.6 miles — of these contaminated sites tend to be more vulnerable: people of color, the elderly, unemployed and low-income communities.

BOS declares end to local drought emergency in Mendocino County

A drought emergency declaration in place over the past two years was lifted in the Mendocino County Board of Supervisors meeting Tuesday. “Current conditions are not beyond the control of the services, personnel equipment and facilities of the county” after a stormy winter and spring helped replenish local water reserves, the resolution states.  The board voted unanimously to approve the item as part of this week’s consent calendar. Governor Gavin Newsom lifted some drought provisions, such as emergency water deliveries, around the state last month. The measure maintained the ban on wasteful water uses like ornamental lawns and preserved emergency orders focused on groundwater supply, among other responses to drought.

El Niño is looming. Here’s what it means for weather and the world.

Earth is under an “El Niño watch” as scientists eye signs that the climate pattern is developing. Its arrival could mean significant impacts worldwide, including a push toward levels of global warming that climate scientists have warned could be devastating. Since March, a rapid increase in average ocean temperatures has been helping to fuel speculation that El Niño is imminent. The pattern could mark a quick departure from an unusually extended spell of El Niño’s inverse counterpart, La Niña, which scientists say ended in February. … Some of the most severe El Niños have delivered heavy rainfall and mudslides to Southern California, for example. Impacts can vary depending on the strength of an El Niño, however. Larger temperature and wind anomalies mean a stronger El Niño.
