Video: Severe Weather and Flooding Delay Planting

California’s State Water Project will provide full allocations this year to 29 water agencies for the first time since 2006. The agency was aided in their decision by 700 inches of snow that has fallen this season in the Sierra Nevada mountains - the 2nd largest amount since 1952.
