Northern and Central California have been experiencing a series of flood advisories and warnings due to excessive rainfall, as reported by multiple branches of the National Weather Service (NWS) and local meteorologists on 3/6/2024 and 3/3/2024. The advisories, which have been issued and updated frequently over the past few days, have highlighted the risk of flooding caused by the heavy rains. Specific counties mentioned include Alameda, Santa Clara, Contra Costa, Santa Cruz, San Mateo, and San Benito.

Radar updates have shown slow-moving downpours and intense thunderstorms, increasing the risk of localized flooding. Despite the challenging weather conditions, the advisories have been actively managed, with several being extended, updated, or canceled as conditions evolved, including advisories in effect until 8 PM.
