San Francisco Boomers Are Moving To This Lovely Outdoorsy City Just Under An Hour From Lake Tahoe

When Bay Area baby boomers — that's anyone born between 1946 and 1964 — decide it's finally time to move away from the misty air of San Francisco, there's one spot that seems to be drawing the eye more than others. It lies over the great Sierra Nevada Mountains to the east, on the bends of the Truckee River in Washoe County, on the far northwest edge of the state of Nevada. Its name? Reno.

FAA ground stop lifted, stranded travelers at California airports await what's next

A ground halt at all U.S. airports ordered Friday afternoon by the Federal Aviation Administration has been lifted, according to federal officials. At a White House news briefing, Sean Duffy, secretary of transportation, said the order had been lifted, but it would take time to “unwind what’s happened.” Flight cancellations and delays as a result of the freeze may last through the weekend, Duffy said, noting that tens of thousands of travelers were stranded at airports across the United States. “We’re going to have some makeup to do,” Duffy said. He said he expected flights to be “back up and operational” by peak Thanksgiving travel. Stranded California airline passengers are in for a long wait despite end of ground stop Federal officials said they will prioritize larger flights moving more passengers as air operations resume. Duffy blamed a communications problem at air traffic control centers in a post to X. At the briefing, he said outdated routers became overwhelmed with data and began reporting inconsistent results, prompting the shutdown with more than 3,500 flights in the air. Mullin said there was no indication the problem was related to a cyberattack or other attack. He said prompt action by federal officials

Heavy rains flood Sacramento-area roadways, trigger brief regional flood advisory

Heavy rain pounding the Sacramento area began to swamp local roads and triggered a regional flood advisory Friday afternoon with the California Highway Patrol reporting numerous calls of roadway flooding across the region. The advisory is in place until 5 p.m. The National Weather Service in Sacramento reported urban, roadway, and small stream flooding and forecast in low-lying areas and areas with poor drainage. “Rain will taper off by 5 p.m., but rain impacts may linger through the evening,” National Weather Service forecasters said in a social media post about 2:20 p.m. Forecasters anticipated wet, windy weather into Friday evening with more stormy weather ahead Sunday and into the work week. The National Weather Service announced a winter storm warning for the higher elevations until 10 a.m. Saturday, with up to a foot of snow above 6,000 feet, 18 inches at the highest Sierra peaks, and as much as 2 inches of snow down to 5,000 feet. Flooding was reported in a number of locations in Sacramento, Placer, El Dorado and Yolo counties in little more than an hour’s time after 1 p.m., during the heaviest of the rainfall, according to CHP traffic logs reviewed by The Sacramento Bee.

German cockroaches and rodent droppings at East Sacramento brunch spot. What else

Sacramento County Health Inspectors found German cockroaches and rodent droppings at one East Sacramento brunch facility. Additionally, nine eateries were cited including a country club after health inspectors found uncovered ice cream in the freezer. What do these inspections mean? While a yellow placard signals two or more major violations, these are typically corrected or mitigated during the inspection, according to the Sacramento County Retail Food Inspection Guide . A red placard, however, signals “imminent danger to public health and safety” and suspends an establishment’s health permit until violations are corrected. This could include, but is not limited to, major vermin contamination . In contrast, a green placard means a restaurant passed inspection. The county performs about 14,000 inspections annually and about 97% of establishments pass, spokesman Ken Casparis previously told The Sacramento Bee. Approximately 1% of inspections result in a closure, he said. These were the results of Sacramento County food facility inspections for Thursday, Nov. 5, through Wednesday, Nov. 11. If an inspection listed below needs clarification, business owners can email The Sacramento Bee at servicejournalists@sacbee.com .

Massive waves expected in Coos Bay, power rates surge in northern California, and local debates over a baseball park and Flock cameras

A powerful Pacific storm is driving extreme ocean swells toward the Oregon coast, with waves expected to reach 30 to 35 feet. While land winds remained relatively light around Coos Bay, offshore gusts reached 60 mph, creating hazardous beach inundation and severe erosion risks. A high wave warning remains active through Monday morning. The Coast Guard restricted traffic across the Coos Bay Bar and warned that 30-foot seas exceed lifeboat operating limits, leaving helicopter crews from Air Station North Bend as the sole search-and-rescue asset.

Sac City Unified rejects all of state's budget review candidates, asks for more names

The Sacramento City Unified School District board Thursday rejected all nine candidates on the state’s list for a Budget Review Committee and asked the state superintendent for more names, saying they didn’t believe the candidates could provide the independent review they sought. The unanimous vote came days after the district’s fiscal overseer, the Sacramento County Office of Education, rejected its revised budget , sending SCUSD into a state review process. “Given that the county, in concert with FCMAT, has not been supportive of the budget, we want an independent set of eyes to look at it and offer recommendations that we’d be willing to look at as well,” Taylor Kayatta, a board member of the district, said. “In that vein, the committee unfortunately believes that all nine names on the list aren’t able to provide us with that independent view.” The district officials are grappling with a fiscal crisis marked by a $222 million structural deficit while clashing with the county education office and the Fiscal Crisis and Management Assistance Team, the state-funded financial group that provides fiscal oversight to school districts and evaluates their financial health. The state-provided list included six candidates with ties to FCMAT — current chief
