California Braces for Record-Breaking Snowmelt Flooding

With California experiencing heavy rain and snow, concerns have been raised about potential flooding once the snow melts. However, most areas, including the watersheds for the American and Sacramento rivers, as well as Shasta, Oroville, and Folsom dams, are not expected to have any issues. Some areas in the eastern Sierra, such as the Merced River through Yosemite, the San Joaquin River, the West Walker River in the Coleville area of Mono County, and areas south of Tulare Lake, could see some flooding by mid-to-late June.
