Landslides of rock and mud closed roadways Friday across California as heavy rains kicked off what will be a series of storms poised to usher in the new year with downpours and potential flooding across much of the state.
This Friday, Dec. 30, 2022, photo released by California Highway Patrol Dublin Area Office shows Niles Canyon Road closed between Pleasanton Sunol Rd and Fremont near Palomares Rd., in Alameda County, Calif. A landslide has closed a highway in the San Francisco Bay area as crews clear rock and mud debris from Niles Canyon Road, also known as State Route 84, between Fremont and Sunol according to the California Highway Patrol and Caltrans District 4.
A flood watch was in effect across much of Northern California through New Year’s Eve. Officials warned that rivers and streams could overflow and urged residents to get sandbags ready. It was the first of several storms expected to roll across California over the next week. The current system is expected to be warmer and wetter, while next week's storms will be colder, lowering snow levels in the mountains, said Hannah Chandler-Cooley, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service in Sacramento.
Sacramento's fire officials planned to broadcast evacuation announcements from a helicopter and a boat along the American River — a spot where many unhoused people live in encampments — to warn of flooding. Avalanche warnings were issued in the backcountry around Lake Tahoe and Mammoth Lakes south of Yosemite.
