Deeply sad to see the @sacbee_news layoffs.

Southern Claifornia has achieved monsoon flow state. We just have huge thunderstorm complexes spawning out of nowhere. Not a single forecast model saw this coming. All the EPS members were dry.

Wow. I have no words. Everyone missed this.

San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose have NEVER seen a 90° day in the month of March. Next week we could have several days of 90°+. This will be an unprecedented March heat wave beginning Monday. For context, temperature records in SF go back to 1874.

Impact: Community activism and reporting from @ByIanJames has led to Orange Co. backing off from spraying herbicides in water ways. Democracy works. https://t.co/XLDQiVWmo2
