Climate change affects Modesto's poorest areas the most. What is the city's plan?

For the first time, Modesto will have an environmental justice element in its general plan, the blueprint that will guide city growth from 2027 to 2050. Those years are expected to pose challenges with climate change , access to clean water, air quality and soil contamination from polluting industries of the past. An overarching goal for the general plan’s environmental justice section is promoting a healthy environment where residents can live, work and play in their neighborhoods without a disproportionate burden of pollution and health impacts. Senate Bill 1000, effective in 2018, requires environmental justice policies in city general plans to engage the community in decision-making and set priorities for improvements and programs to address needs. At a public meeting Thursday, the city unveiled a map showing underserved areas based on indicators such as pollution exposure, environmental issues, socioeconomic factors and vulnerable populations. The areas include west Modesto, the Bret Harte and Shackelford neighborhoods, airport neighborhood, central Modesto south of Briggsmore Avenue, La Loma and Empire. The map also marks the city’s undeveloped northeast corner as underserved. The city has proposed policies and actions to address some environmental justice issues and received input at Thursday’s meeting for addressing other problems.

Giant California Swell Hurls Coast Guard Rescue Boats Into The Air (Video)

For most people, getting caught in the impact zone, taking waves on the head, is something you try to avoid. That is, unless you work for the U.S. Coast Guard. Drone footage shared by Northern California aerial surf cinematographer DroneGuy650 shows Coast Guard rescue boats taking on towering surf in the San Francisco Bay Area. Rather than retreating to calmer water, the crews steer into the waves. The bows climb steep walls of water, briefly launching into the air before slamming back down.

This weekend's California weather: Enjoy the calm before atmospheric river rainstorm

Enjoy the wonderful weather this weekend, because it won’t last much longer. This weekend, high temperatures will sit comfortably in the low 70s and upper 60s across Central California, and even into the low 80s for portions of Southern California; all just slightly above average for early November. With mostly sunny skies and light winds, it is the perfect weekend to spend outside, whether it be on the coast or in the mountains. This is all thanks to a weak ridge of high pressure that is setting up over the western U.S. As it sits overhead, skies are cleared and temperatures underneath the ridge will stay slightly above average alongside calm and stable skies. For the Sacramento area, high temperatures Friday will rise into the upper 60s and low 70s with some briefly passing clouds, and rise a few degrees more on Saturday as skies remain sunny. A few extra clouds to go around Sunday, but even then temps remain steady. Lows in the 40s during this stretch are typical for early November. It is the same story elsewhere. For the San Joaquin Valley, highs in the low 70s for Modesto, Merced, Fresno and San Jose on Friday will rise
