In light of the storms forecasted through mid-March, Governor Newsom has proclaimed a state of emergency in 21 counties.

California is mobilizing personnel and resources to storm-impacted communities throughout the state. Residents are urged to avoid unnecessary travel in affected areas, and details on staying safe during the storms can be found online. B-Roll of storm response efforts can also be found online.
