I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Choose less frequented parks and trails. Do not park in a crowded parking lot or use a crowded trail. Do not hold social gatherings at parks or anywhere.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Stay close to home and avoid crowds\u003c/strong>: Look for nature nearby, now is not the time to explore or travel far from home.

Visit nature virtually — there are many options online.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Stay safe and healthy\u003c/strong>: Do not visit parks that have been closed by local authorities. Many restrooms and other facilities have been closed, so plan ahead before you go. Shorten your visit to ensure a safe experience for everyone.

The data \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/science/1936797/why-we-cant-stop-talking-about-californias-sierra-snowpack\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">help scientists\u003c/span>\u003c/a> determine how much water will run off during the spring and summer months to replenish California’s reservoirs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">Sierra snowpack accounts for about one-third of California’s annual\u003ca href=\"https://sierranevada.ca.gov/ca-primary-watershed/\"> \u003cspan class=\"s1\">water supply\u003c/span>\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">DWR’s Jan. 2 snow survey tracked the Sierra snowpack at close to average for the start of the year. By the end of January, the statewide percentage was down to 72%. At the end of one of the driest Februarys in state history, the snowpack is now below half of the historical average.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About 23.3% of the state is now in “moderate drought,” up from 9.5% last week. That’s according to the \u003ca href=\"https://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/CurrentMap/StateDroughtMonitor.aspx?CA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">U.S. Drought Monitor\u003c/a>, a weekly report issued by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p2\">DWR spokesman Chris Orrock says the dry winter is in stark contrast to last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p2\">“In February of 2019, it was probably one of the wettest Februarys we’ve ever had. Some areas of the Sierra accumulated up to 50 feet of snow,” Orrock said. “This year in the majority of the Central Valley and Northern California we had little to no measurable precipitation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p2\">But thanks in part to a snowy and cold 2019 in California’s mountains, Orrock says the state’s reservoirs still have plenty of water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p2\">“They’re all at or near those averages that they would be at this time of year anyhow because of that good snowpack we had last year,” Orrock said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p2\">California typically receives about half of its annual precipitation in the months of December, January and February.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Snowpack is an important insurance policy to protect against wildfire, says John Abatzoglou, a climatologist at University of California, Merced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">Snow melt provides a sustained, gradual source of moisture and keeps those forested areas wet later into the spring and early summer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A subpar snowpack year sets the stage for an early start to fire season, Abatzoglou says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">“California certainly has seen longer fire seasons, lasting both later in the fall and starting early in the spring,” he said. “And unfortunately, the lack of precipitation across the state — we’ve basically struck out during the two wettest months of the year.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">Cal Fire, the state agency responsible for fire prevention in California, says that the current dry and windy conditions have already contributed to wildfires, which is usual for wintertime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Orrock says water officials are now hoping for a repeat of the 2018 wet season, when a series of March storms replenished the snowpack in time for the spring runoff.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Some areas of the Sierra accumulated up to 50 feet of snow,” Orrock said. “This year in the majority of the Central Valley and Northern California we had little to no measurable precipitation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p2\">But thanks in part to a snowy and cold 2019 in California’s mountains, Orrock says the state’s reservoirs still have plenty of water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p2\">“They’re all at or near those averages that they would be at this time of year anyhow because of that good snowpack we had last year,” Orrock said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p2\">California typically receives about half of its annual precipitation in the months of December, January and February.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Snowpack is an important insurance policy to protect against wildfire, says John Abatzoglou, a climatologist at University of California, Merced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">Snow melt provides a sustained, gradual source of moisture and keeps those forested areas wet later into the spring and early summer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A subpar snowpack year sets the stage for an early start to fire season, Abatzoglou says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">“California certainly has seen longer fire seasons, lasting both later in the fall and starting early in the spring,” he said. “And unfortunately, the lack of precipitation across the state — we’ve basically struck out during the two wettest months of the year.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">Cal Fire, the state agency responsible for fire prevention in California, says that the current dry and windy conditions have already contributed to wildfires, which is usual for wintertime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Orrock says water officials are now hoping for a repeat of the 2018 wet season, when a series of March storms replenished the snowpack in time for the spring runoff.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
