People walk down a path at the Golden Gate Overlook in San Francisco, on Thursday. It’s just the second time water has been released from the rebuilt spillway, following the 2017 disaster that upended life around Gold Country and forced the evacuation of more than 180,000 people. Recent storms prompted the state to release water from the main spillway at Lake Oroville midday Friday, with snowmelt likely to further swell lake levels in the coming months. Weeks of relentless snowfall has kept the state's transportation agency busy clearing roads of 45 million cubic yards of snow in the past month, enough to 'fill more than 100 Rose Bowls,' said California Department of Transportation Chief Deputy Director Mike Keever. 'And we're also likely to see this weather pattern continuing as we go into at least the first half of next week.' 'We will see additional rounds of both rain and heavy mountain snow redevelop across much of Northern and Central California as we go through the weekend,' Lawrence told reporters at OES headquarters in the Sacramento suburb of Mather.
