It is suppose to rain, we are not at summer time yet in North Hemisphere. It is spring season for north hemisphere(is what i should've asked) till May. When you say barely flowing you mean the river is drying up?

It is the Calavaras river. It comes out of Hogan Reservoir, and flows west to the San Joaquin river. From there it flows out the delta waterways past SanFrancisco and under the Golden Gate bridge and out to sea. No its not dry, but its not way up the banks like it was the other day. Hogan must have plenty of water in it for them to release it like that though.

The El Niño-fueled storms that have swept through Northern California in recent weeks have swelled some of the state’s largest reservoirs to encouraging levels even as the state's drought persists.

One of the biggest beneficiaries has been Lake Shasta, a keystone reservoir of the Central Valley project, which serves California growers.


To make room in Shasta for water from last weekend’s storms, the Federal Bureau of Reclamation ramped up releases from 5,000 cubic feet per second to 20,000 cubic feet per second on March 18. It was the first time since 2011 that the bureau released water into the upper Sacramento River at such a rapid rate, said spokesman Shane Hunt.

So hows the south doing right now. Its Summer.
