For nearly a decade he’s covered how warming temperatures are altering the lives of Californians. He’s reported on farmers worried their pistachio trees aren’t getting enough sleep, families desperate for water, scientists studying dying giant sequoias, and alongside firefighters containing wildfires. His work has appeared on local stations across California and nationally on public radio shows like Morning Edition, Here and Now, All Things Considered and Science Friday. ",

National Weather Service meteorologist Dalton Behringer said the cold snap follows a recent atmospheric river, as clearing skies allow heat to escape the atmosphere more efficiently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This shift marks a change in weather messaging, Behringer said, with the new “extreme cold” designation moving away from agricultural terminology to focus on broader human health risks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While some people may see this and say 32 degrees is not extreme cold. For us in the Bay Area, it can be dangerous, especially for people experiencing homelessness,” Behringer said. “Infrastructure and people are not built for this here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meteorologists are advising commuters to allow extra time on Friday morning to scrape frost off windshields and are urging residents to protect the “four Ps”: plants, pipes, people and pets. Behringer noted the hills may remain slightly warmer than valley floors because of a warm air mass aloft, but the risk of frost remains high.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The life-threatening drop in temperature has prompted Santa Clara County’s Office of Emergency Management to activate its cold weather response.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12068301\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2560px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-12068301 size-full\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/12/GettyImages-2252316412-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/12/GettyImages-2252316412-scaled.jpg 2560w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/12/GettyImages-2252316412-2000x1333.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/12/GettyImages-2252316412-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/12/GettyImages-2252316412-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/12/GettyImages-2252316412-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A couple walks near Fort Point as the Golden Gate Bridge is covered with dense fog during cold as rainy weather, as an atmospheric river hits the San Francisco Bay Area on Dec. 20, 2025. \u003ccite>(Tayfun Coskun/Anadolu via Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Charles Harris, with the county’s emergency office, said officials are working closely with public health and supportive housing departments to reach those most at risk. While the county cannot mandate that individuals move indoors, outreach teams are working to distribute survival gear to unhoused encampments through the evening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We give out emergency blankets, we give out water, tents, tarps, blankets,” Harris said. “As a county, we can’t force people into housing, but we can meet them where they are.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The county is operating eight \u003ca href=\"https://oem.santaclaracounty.gov/disaster-preparedness/cold-weather-safety\">warming centers\u003c/a>, Harris said. In San José, the city has activated additional locations, including community rooms and libraries. The sites serve as temporary shelters during the cold weather, providing access to warm food and restrooms overnight before returning to normal public use during the day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beatriz Ramos, chief programs officer for HomeFirst, said teams are targeting specific geographic areas, including southern and western portions of San José. HomeFirst operates overnight warming locations at sites such as the Roosevelt Community Center and the Evergreen Library. While the sites are typically referral-based, Ramos said entry requirements are relaxed during inclement weather activations.[aside postID=news_12068963 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/02/Russian-River-flooding-15_qed-1020x680.jpg']“Currently, we do have a full program with a waitlist. However, if someone comes to the door, they would not be turned away,” Ramos said. “We would work for them to ensure that they have safety and protection against the elements for the night.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ramos said larger facilities, like the Boccardo Reception Center, have 250 beds and can increase capacity during emergencies. If a specific site is full, staff coordinate transportation to other shelters within the network.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Infrastructure officials are also on alert. Liann Walborsky, with San José Water, said the utility’s operations team is prepared for potential main breaks, noting local water mains are buried deep enough to provide natural insulation. Because water moves continuously through most of the system, that flow helps prevent freezing. The county roads department said it will monitor for hazards such as black ice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>County officials are coordinating with PG&E to monitor the power grid as residents increase heater use through Friday morning. Harris encouraged residents to sign up for \u003ca href=\"https://oem.santaclaracounty.gov/prepare-4-steps/register-alerts\">AlertSCC\u003c/a> to receive ZIP code-specific emergency notifications and urged the public to avoid using open flames or stoves to heat homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Along the coast, California State Parks rangers and lifeguards are monitoring conditions as a high surf advisory remains in effect through Friday night.

City officials encouraged residents to keep pets cool, limit sun exposure and stay hydrated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Flynn said that although weather officials haven’t issued specific advisories related to schools, as the academic year is back in session for most districts, there is general guidance for students to be vigilant in the heat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said taking breaks in the shade and staying as hydrated as possible are some best practices for preventing heat stress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lauren Schwartz, from the San Rafael City Manager’s office, told KQED that city staff have also been dealing with a large structure \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12053120/san-rafael-apartment-building-fire-injures-8-displaces-50-residents\">fire\u003c/a> affecting residents, but said the office has an advisory \u003ca href=\"https://www.cityofsanrafael.org/beat-the-heat-all-about-heat-advisories-excessive-heat-warnings-and-red-flag-warnings/\">online\u003c/a> in place for residents to use for safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Flynn estimated that temperatures will start to cool off by Sunday, although it will be a gradual return to normal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s not like a big cold front coming that’s going to bring noticeable relief right away,” he said. “By the time we get to the middle of next week, we should be closer to normal temperatures.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",
