Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA low pressure system dropping south along the California coast brought showers and thunderstorms to central California March 1st and 2nd. Although many areas received some rain, the greatest impacts from the storm were across Kern county. Parts of Kern county received 0.25 inches to 0.75 inches of rain, especially the area in the lower Kern River Canyon east of Bakersfield. This resulted in minor rock and mud slides onto Highway 178, closing the road for several hours. On the west side of Kern county, rain was a contributing factor the the development of a sink hole in the city of Taft.||Snow also fell across the mountains of Kern County during the early hours of March 2nd. Snowfall amounts ranged from 1 inch to 5.5 inches at elevations above 5000 feet. Since snow levels remained above the level of the major highways, no significant impacts were reported.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeRainfall of 0.49 inches fell at the APRS station in Taft. The rain contributed to the development of a sinkhole that was 200 feet long, 1 to 2 feet wide, and 1 to 4 feet deep. Five homes were evacuated as a precaution, but no damage was reported to any buildings or utilities.
