even if they get oakland city council to sign off on this this summer. and that's the deadline that the a's have said. they want. it's in the hands of a judge this lawsuit and they really don't have control over that and don't know where this will go in there, hoping for the best as our fans. of course, lot of people are if they get the city council get the judge him, it would seem that there won't be another surprise hurdles. so hopefully hopefully thank you grant you that. season is and the verdict, not much snow. it was the 4th survey at phillips station confirming a dry year overall april. first usually is when the snow pack is highest. but the survey found the statewide snowpack peak early last march and the sierra peak in january. the latest storm out forecast only 44% of average. and with that in mind, let's get a look at our forecast with our chief meteorologist
