Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeAn upper-level short-wave moved into California on April 10th, flattening the ridge. ||This set the stage for back-to-back strong storms to move through the central California interior on the 11th, 12th, and 13th. Each storm triggered severe thunderstorms over the central and southern San Joaquin Valley with hail up to 1.75 inches in diameter. Tallies of agricultural and crop loss approached 100 million dollars due to the extensive hail damage across Kings, Tulare, Fresno, and Merced counties. Funnel clouds were observed, although none touched down. The first storm brought up to a foot of snow to the Southern Sierra Nevada, and the second���colder���storm dropped up to 30 inches of snow at Lodgepole in Sequoia National Park.||Record rainfall fell on the central and southern San Joaquin Valley. By 8 AM on April 11th, the rainfall at Meadows Field, Bakersfield, had already broken the record for the date. Two days later, the rainfall records at both Bakersfield and Fresno had fallen by 11 AM. Some street flooding was reported, especially near the Fresno State campus.||Some urban street flooding was also reported with the renewed thunderstorms on April 13th in the Fresno area. ||The high temperature at Bakersfield on April 13th was only 57 degrees, and occurred at 2 AM. The high tied the record low maximum temperature for the date, last set in 1939. Fresno���s high of 55 degrees on the 13th occurred at 1:50 AM, and just missed the record low maximum temperature of 54 degrees, set in 1998.
