Record Rainfall and Flooding Hit San Francisco Bay Area

San Francisco and the Bay Area are experiencing severe flooding due to a powerful atmospheric river, marking the second such storm this week. Flash flood warnings have been issued across the region, with significant rainfall causing road closures, flight delays, and trapping residents in flooded areas. Sonoma County has been particularly hard hit, with record-breaking rainfall leading to swollen waterways and potential 500-year flood events. Experts attribute the intensity of the storm to climate change, which is increasing atmospheric moisture levels.
