News about California, flooding

Even when the air is hot, the water can be cold! Rivers, streams, & creeks are very cold due to snow melt. Even experienced swimmers can lose muscle control very quickly. Use extreme caution and never go in the water alone! #CAwx pic.twitter.com/Ku4OrZ2j89

There is an isolated threat for strong thunderstorms this afternoon, mainly over the Sierra south of I-80 and far northeast CA and northwest NV. Main threats include lightning, gusty outflow winds, small hail, and brief heavy rain. ⛈ #nvwx #cawx pic.twitter.com/nSIVgra4YZ

Area 3: Main line for this eve/Tue with widespread severe and flash flood potential. pic.twitter.com/GaDReA053b
