DEATHNOTICES Students in Tehama County will be joining other schools and scien- tists around the county in observance of the week, Hinkston said. The week will be focused on sharing with students within the schools in Te- hama County the facts re- lated to the use of drugs and alcohol and the sci- ence behind what chem- icals can do to the body. Hinkston said there are a lot of myths out there, such as marijuanaisnaturaland therefore not harmful and to get sober you can either take a cold shower or drink a lot of coffee, that are not true. "We are not just telling kids drugs are bad for them but also showing them how they are bad for them," Hinkston said. Through locally planned events, students will have the opportunity to ask questions and learn scien- tific facts about drugs and alcohol and the myths they may have heard. Through- out the week there will be morning announcements, posters displayed, informa- tion booths, in-class discus- sions, "I want to Shatter the Myths" pledge cards and videos. Students will also have the opportunity to take the interactive National Drug and Alcohol IQ Challenge and to participate in a chat day in which students join in a live, online chat with scientistsfromtheNational Institute of Drug Abuse to get questions answered aboutdruguse,theireffects onthebodyandhowtohelp friends and family that are abusing drugs.

Rodeo FROM PAGE 1 equally raging Sacramento, the state's largest river. More storms Thurs- day raised fears of mud- slides in Southern Califor- nia and clogged commutes statewide. The Russian River in Northern Cali- fornia's wine region was among the tributaries still in flood. Residents in the resort town of Guerneville used canoes and kayaks to get around flooded areas, and even inside their inun- dated homes. Forecasters said rain and snow would continue into Thursday afternoon. But the heaviest of the back-to-back systems fueled by an "atmo- spheric river" weather phe- nomenon had passed after delivering the heaviest rain in a decade. "Everything is on the way down," said Steve Anderson, a meteorologist at the Na- tional Weather Service of- fice in Monterey. The past week's storms were enough to double the snowpack in parts of the Sierras, runoff from which provides Californians with much of their year-round water supply. Stations up and down the mountain chain were reporting twice the amount of normal rain and snow for this time of year. The state's reservoirs were brimming above aver- age for the first time in six years. "It's been so wet in some places this winter we would do pretty well even if it ta- pered off right now," said Daniel Swain, a fellow at the University of Califor- nia at Los Angeles whose weather blog has been a closely watched chronicle of the drought. Water experts look at fac- tors including soil moisture, stream levels and snow pack in determining drought, said Claudia Faunt, a San Diego-based hydrologist with the U.S. Geological Survey. Atthepeakofthedrought in 2014 and 2015, urban Cal- ifornians were under a man- datory25-percentwatercon- servation order from Brown. Dozens of threatened native species suffered as water- ways shriveled. More than 100 million trees in the Si- erra Nevadas died, forest- ers said. California's underground water reserves have been so depleted by extra pump- ing in the drought that they would take decades, at a minimum, to replenish, ex- perts said.
