☆ A California superbloom is springing to life and the best is yet to come
  + stars: | 2024-03-17 | by ( Mary Gilbert | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +6 min
CNN —California will soon be decorated with a rainbow of wildflowers after drenching winter rain set the stage for a spectacular spring superbloom. The phenomenon isn’t unique to California; wildflowers can paint parched desert landscapes, mountains and grasslands in Arizona and Nevada, too, but some of the most dense and therefore spectacular displays are found in Southern California. David McNew/Getty Images/FileBut there’s hope for another brilliant superbloom following the wet winter, Meyer said. Desert sand verbena and dune evening primrose wildflowers bloom in Anza-Borrego Desert State Park's Coyote Canyon on Thursday, March 14. “We don’t know as of yet if it’s going to be a good year for the poppies, given the rain,” Turner cautioned.

Atmospheric rivers caused downpours in the Bay Area on Wednesday, bringing cable car services to a halt, before moving on to Los Angeles and San Diego by Thursday. Officials in Santa Barbara County raised evacuation advisories to orders on Saturday, calling on residents to be at a "very high state of readiness." Heavy rain and extreme weather caused roadway erosion at San Onofre's lower parking lot, with images on social media showing sections of the lot collapsing onto the beach below. A Sunday update from the National Weather Service Weather Prediction Center predicted risks of rainfall exceeding flash flood guidance across swathes of the state with "high risk" — estimated at 70% probability — for San Diego and Orange Counties. The storm comes as the San Diego County Medical Examiner's Office announced it was investigating three deaths in late January as related to California's last encounter with heavy storms.

Around 10 a.m. Monday, the lifeguard swam out to get the barrel from the lagoon and opened it on shore, finding a “non-responsive” person inside, the lieutenant said.

☆ My partner and I reduced our cost of living by 80% and saved over $100,000 after moving into a van. Here why it's the best decision we've made.

This is how van life has enabled them to save $108,000 since 2020, as told to PollyAnna Brown. In September 2020, I got a management company to bring me brand deals for user-generated content — content that aligned my channel with sponsored items. By cutting our expenses, growing my business, and doing van life our way, we've saved $108,899.92 in just over two years. Van life also requires more oil changes, and we had to increase our phone plan so that we could hot spot for WiFi. That's how we've approached van life, and we love it.
