Field notes
The homepage separates its own readiness estimates from formal alerts: its scale ends at “Getting close,” while Watch and Warning are attributed to the National Weather Service or a utility shutoff. Its tool list also reaches beyond forecasts, with pages for flood maps, insurance timing, household kits, shutoffs, trees, cars, local help, and neighborhood groups. A sample for ZIP 95821 names Arden-Arcade and Sacramento County.
