More than 32 trillion gallons of rain have inundated the state since late December.
. That percentage has since dropped to zero, although more mild levels of drought still cover most of the state.Between Dec. 20 and Jan. 15, at least nine atmospheric rivers blasted California like a fire hose — only shutting off for short intervals. Atmospheric rivers are narrow strips of deep subtropical moisture generated by ocean storms. Their moisture can originate from as far away as Hawaii.
Atmospheric rivers transfer massive amounts of water over thousands of miles, bringing flooding and winds to wherever they make landfall. Stagnant high pressure is in the process of building west of Vancouver Island. This dome of high pressure will deflect the jet stream northward. That will lead to a lengthy stretch of dry weather as the high-pressure zone fends off any intrusions of the jet stream, atmospheric rivers or moisture. In other words: no storms, no atmospheric rivers.
