Episodes
Sub-tropical jet stream aided in advecting sub-tropical moisture plume from over the Central Pacific into the California Coast starting March 9th through the 11th. This led to widespread flooding around the CWA, numerous landslides, sharp rises in rivers in Monterey County, and widespread power outages from downed trees and powerlines due to strong, gusty winds. Widespread wind gusts 45 to 55 mph were reported on the evening of the 9th and into the early hours of the 10th. Heavy rains during the same time flooded numerous streams, creeks, rivers, and roads. 4-7 inches of rain fell across the Santa Cruz Mountains while 5-10 inches of rain fell on the Santa Lucia Mountains.
A plume of moisture from the tropical Pacific brought an Atmospheric River to the Bay Area January 26th-29th. This system generated heavy rain rates causing flooding and debris flows over area burn scars as well as 15 to 20 inches of rain in the Santa Lucia Mountains. Mudflows near the River Fire burn scar in Monterey County caused damage to homes, covered roadways, and trapped animals at local ranches. Debris flows near the Dolan Fire burn scar caused an entire section of Highway 1 near Rat Creek to collapse into the Pacific Ocean. This was an unusually cold system for an Atmospheric River resulting in lower snow levels and allowing for accumulating snow as low as 1300 feet in elevation. Additionally, strong south to southeast winds gusted to 60-70 mph across area peaks with Mt Diablo reaching 80 mph. Valley locations were gusting up to 40 mph. Numerous trees fell across the region including into homes and onto cars. Multiple power outages were also reported. It is estimated that the storm caused millions of dollars in damage across Santa Cruz County https://www.ksbw.com/article/emergency-declaration-made-in-santa-cruz-county-for-millions-in-damages/35400060. Full storm summary https://www.weather.gov/mtr/AtmosphericRiver_1_26-29_2021.
A low pressure system moving in from the Gulf of Alaska and drawing in moisture from the tropics combined to bring the first atmospheric river event of the winter season to the Greater Bay Area. This system brought widespread heavy rainfall, roadway flooding, and strong winds to the region. Rare Storm Warnings were issued over the coastal waters where buoys reported wind gusts in excess of 50 mph. Bay Area peaks recorded wind gusts between 60 to 70 mph with gusts along the Monterey Peninsula and Big Sur Coast at 50 to 60 mph. These winds caused downed trees and power outages across the area. Additionally, convection associated wit the main low caused severe flooding in the city of Chualar where homes were flooded. and cars were stranded on a flooded highway.
An atmospheric river with an associated cold front moved through the region from February 12th to the 15th bringing widespread flooding and debris flows. Multiple mainstem rivers flooded prompting evacuations from local officials. Strong wind gusts caused downed trees, power outages, and structural damage. Additionally, a tree fell on a car causing one fatality and one serious injury on Highway 17 while another downed tree caused a serious multi-car traffic accident that resulted in another fatality as well as major injuries. The areas peaks received upwards of 10 inches of rainfall and widespread wind gusts of 50 to 60 mph were observed. Mount Saint Helena recorded wind gusts of 80 mph.
A moderate to strong atmospheric river impacted much of California in the middle of the month. A weak surface low developed off the coast on January 15th bringing moderate to heavy rainfall to portions of the region. Over the next 24 to 36 hours a second strong low pressure system moved to the north and east bringing heavy rain, destructive winds, high surf, flooding, and thunderstorms to the Bay Area. Numerous reports were received of downed trees and power lines. Winds were recorded between 60 and 100 mph. Downed trees resulted in two fatalities.
A powerful west to northwest swell impacted the central coast from Dec 16th to Dec 20th prompting a High Surf Warning and a High Surf Advisory along the coast. This was also accompanied by an upper level low that produced gusty winds and heavy rainfall. This led to large breaking waves up to 50 feet at Mavericks and caused damage to a bay front restaurant. There were also multiple water rescues during this surf event.
A strong winter storm finally impacted California following up on nearly a month and a half of no rain and the driest January on record. The storm brought heavy rain, gusty winds, and damage to trees and power lines along with some minor flooding of urban areas. Rainfall amounts were heaviest in the mountains with 5-10 inches or more occurring. Generally 1-3.5 inches fell in low elevation areas and urban spots, with less than an inch in Southern Monterey County. Winds gusted 50-70 MPH with the highest gusts in the mountains of the region. Several small mudslides were reported with the largest occurring in the Santa Cruz Mountains north of Boulder Creek on Highway 9.
A winter storm impacted the Bay Area with rain and wind, bringing some flooding issues as well as downed trees and power lines across the area.
A Pacific storm system moved across the Bay Area on February 28. It dropped several inches of rainfall and brought gusty winds to the area. This resulted in flooding of urban areas, small streams and creeks, and damage to power lines and trees as well as a few localized mud and rockslides.
A series of storm systems, part of a large Atmospheric River type of pattern, impacted the area during late December 2012. From the 21st through 26th of December, heavy rain, gusty winds, flooding, and mudslides occurred across the Bay Area in these consecutive events. Downed trees, powerlines, and flooded roadways impacted residents over the Christmas holiday season. The event included a tornado touchdown on the coast of Santa Cruz County which brought extensive damage to portions of a greenhouse and flower growing operations. These storms followed a series of significant storms in late November and early December.
A series of significant winter storms impacted the district during late November and early December 2012. The first storm arrived November 28 and then was followed by three more winter storms. Each brought strong and gusty winds, heavy rainfall, high surf, and flooding to the region. During the second storm on November 30, at noon time there were reported 13,800 power outages in the Bay Area.
A potent and unseasonably cold storm moved through the San Francisco Bay Area and the cenrtal California coast producing brief heavy rain, small hail, strong wind and even a dusting of snow down to sea level. These weather elements combined to cause minor flooding, slick roads, small mudslides, and falling trees and power poles.
The third in a series of significant storms brought strong winds and heavy rain to the San Francisco and Monterey Bay areas. This storm, the strongest of the week, developed over the Pacific Ocean with a strong parent low pressure based in the Gulf of Alaska. Around 159,000 customers lost power across the San Francisco Bay area with nearly 22,000 customers without power in the Monterey Bay area. Numerous power lines and trees were knocked down when strong wind combined with saturated soil. Also, areas of flooding occurred causing mainly problems for vehicles.
The first in a series of significant storms brought strong winds and heavy rain to the San Francisco and Monterey Bay areas. This storm developed over the Pacific Ocean with a strong parent low pressure based in the Gulf of Alaska. Over 51,000 customers lost power across the San Francisco Bay area with nearly 3,500 customers without power in the Monterey Bay area. Numerous power lines and trees were knocked down when strong wind combined with saturated soil.
A strong low pressure system made its way through Northern and Central California accompanied by deep tropical moisture and very strong winds. Heavy rain combined with the wind to cause numerous trees, tree limbs and pole/telephone powers to fall. Pacific Gas and Electric reported over 277,000 customers had lost power in the San Francisco and Monterey Bay Areas with a cost of over thirteen million dollars in damages. The record breaking heavy rain also led to flooding and debris flows.
A powerful winter storm produced a 73 mph wind gust at the Los Gatos Raws site in Santa Clara County.
This unusual early summer record breaking heat wave was responsible for 10 deaths in the Bay Area and a large number of heat related injuries. Temperature record of 103 degrees in San Francisco tied the all time record high temperature. Other record highs for the day were Livermore had 107 degrees, Oakland 106 degrees, Santa Rosa 108 degrees High temperature caused over loading of power resources and rolling blackouts were implemented to keep the power system from exceeding capacity so many people lost power for a period during the heat.
Widespread rain with twenty four hour accumulations of more than 5 inches occured over the area on Feb 13 into February 14th. Urban and small stream flooding occured in nost counties of the area. Many roads including Hwy 1 and Hwy 116 were closed. Hwy 129 was closed by a mudslide in Santa Cruz County. 29 people were evacuated in Pescadero due to high waters. . A number of houses in Daly City had to be abandoned and eventually distroyed due to mudslides which were a result of the consecutive years of above average rain. Winds of more than 50 mph were recorded in Marin county and a number of trees were downed knocking out power to as many as 42,000 residents throughout the bay area. A tree blew down into one residence causing in excess of $250,000 damage. there were no deaths and only minor injuries.the russian river in sonoma county reached near flood stage but, damage was confined to low lying areas near the river such as some trailers and camping areas near forestville. Numerous traffic accidents and flight delays at SFO occurred during the storm.

Power Outage FAQs
What is Power Outage?
Power outage (also called a power cut, a power blackout, power failure or a blackout) is a short-term or a long-term loss of the electric power to a particular area.
What Causes Power Outages?
- Severe weather (high winds, lightning, winter storms, heat waves, rain or flooding can cause damage to power lines or equipment);
- Other damage to electric transmission lines (vehicle accidents, trees, and animals can cause damage to power lines or equipment);
- Repairing, maintenance or upgrades on power lines and equipment.
What are the Top Outage Safety Tips?
- Stay away from the downed power lines, park vehicles in protected areas;
- Unplug appliances and electronics, limit cell phone use to conserve battery life;
- Use portable generators outdoors only, well away from open windows and doors;
- Pack perishable foods into a cooler, keep refrigerator and freezer doors shut as much as possible.
