California’s recent record-breaking storms have filled major reservoirs up and down the state — dramatically improving the outlook for the 2024 water season for cities and growers.

And, while Valley residents will welcome the warming trend that’s in the National Weather Service Hanford forecast, more rain and snow could be on the way by mid-February.

According to the Climate Prediction Center, there’s a 40% to 50% chance of above-average precipitation six to 10 days from now. Odds of above-average precipitation are 60% to 70% for next week.

As we dry out for the next few days, the CPC gives us a 40 to 50 percent chance of above average precipitation 6 to 10 days from now and a 60 to 70 percent chance of above average precipitation next week. #CAWx #Bakersfield #Fresno pic.twitter.com/HhMbHOfLM5
