High Water Tests River Channels In California

Sponsored by:

Sonora, CA — High water will test river channels and levees in much of California, as spring rains continue to fall.

Hydrologists from the state Department of Water Resources said Tuesday that they believe most major water systems will be able to handle the added water.

In the Mother Lode several creeks and streams have already over flown; however the larger reservoirs have safety measurements in place to prevent flooding.
