some say it is a lake that will not die. to larry lake, once the largest lake west of the mississippi disappeared as california gobble up water and new farmland. it re-services during years of extreme rain an snowfall. tulare lake is reforming thanks to historic snowpack in the southern sierra wilson walker shows us what is being done as the big melt floods in. >> i was here yesterday with friends and it was maybe an inc lower. doesn't sound like much but that is a lot of surface area. and a lot of water. >> reporter: doug snyder made his way around the roadblock t
11:10 pm
see the once in a generation spectacle. tulare lake back to claim roads, orchards, farms an anything else left on the land. a disaster unfolding in slow motion and threatening everything around it, including the city of corcoran. >> this is like a war room mess >> reporter: the city manager i now leaning heavily on his previous job as a county emergency coordinator. >> this line that you see here is a protective corcoran levy. >> reporter: the city has now wrapped itself around the southern and western side of corcoran, so the city is now dependent on these levies with the job of boxing in and protecting this land. it will b for some time to come. >> sometimes we have the abilit to add extra protection to give us more reassurance that this i going to endure the two-year-long period of water behind it. >> two years? >> two years. >> in two years, who knows? thi
11:11 pm
was a big bowl. it happens to b on the shoreline of the lake. >> reporter: just south of corcoran, california's first town founded by african-america s, allensworth was built by refugees from the jim crow south. from a makeshift emergency command center, it is leading this community through the latest crisis. >> out there you see equipment still doing repair work. the levy was breached intentionally and some farmers did not want water to go on their farm, so i the middle of the night they took equipment out and made a portion of the levy which then forced water to head in that direction. >> reporter: they stopped the flooding with a series of improvised repairs, but now the wait on the snowpack that looms on the valley floor. >> our hope is that everything stays contained in the channel.
11:12 pm
>> reporter: levee repairs are part of the emergency work goin on in every direction. los angeles county is hoping to li. to pull their equipment out of the water. california high-spee rail with at least one portion of their project currently submerged is now lending assistance and equipment to the flood response. the biggest ope question now is where the runof will be directed. >> we have to rely on the farming interests outside of ou levy to actually divert the water and put it towards agricultural production use and put it in the basins and pump i out to other areas. we are really dependent on our agricultural neighbors. >> another concern is transparency about who is makin the call in which land gets flooded. that was his personal request of governor newsom.
11:13 pm
>> a core part is establishing the organization that can now lead all of us in emergencies like this. it is largely farmers. >> i was amazed then and we always come out every time it gets high. but i have never see it this high. >> reporter: snyder saw the lak reform back in 1969, and it wil be here for at least another year or two. how much damage is caused will depend on high-stakes decisions about how the water will flow and how the weather unpacks that southern snowpack onto a lake bed once thought to be extinct. >> wilson walker really give us that look as to just how much water is there. the question now, what happens next? everybody wonders how much wate can and will flow into that lake. so darren peck is joining us tonight with a much closer
11:14 pm
look. he has actually been studying the lake levels now an how much higher it will go with some pretty cool 3-d! i will join you now so you can show us >> you are standing in front of about 150,000 acre-feet of wate right now. jules, that is the lever of water from one of the four major rivers that is feeling awake. that is the wate that is going in now. that take us through about may 15th. ther is going to be a lot more water coming over the next five weeks by the time we get to june 5th, that is where the total will go up from 150,000 acre-feet you are standing at over here, to about 300. for this one you cannot put an exact forecast on it. see how you see how red is 50 to 75%? that is where the confidence level is that by jun 5th we will probably see the peak in terms of water flowing into this. but i think the question has to be answered, what like where, exactly? because very few of us have eve
11:15 pm
experienced this and know what it is. i want to show you where tulare lake is and where the water is coming from. we will g to a google earth fly through and you can get yourself oriented. that lake is down her in a basin at the southern edge of the san joaquin valley. ther are four major rivers flowing into that. look at all the farmland! that is what the lake looked like before it filled. i is ancient! that is a floodplai from the king 's river, one of the four major rivers that is flowing out of the southern sierra right now, which just ha its biggest snowfall on record. when you look at the reservoir for pine valley reservoir , there are sensors in the sierra about that. we just did the sno survey today. one of the sensor above this reservoir that ultimately has to flow into lak tulare, if you melted all the snow you would have seven feet of standing water. there is a lot to go. it is a story. this
11:16 pm
is one of the places that wilso went. he did not fit that in. i wanted to show you the video he shot with his drone. look back there! there is still room. thi is a balancing act. the manager want to keep that lake at just the right level so that there i room for when the big snow melt comes and the water can still flow into this reservoir and no have to get released downstream that is the balancing act. we c temperatures are going down. that is part of the story paul has got in the forecast. yeah, it is just slowing down the rate at which the wate is flowing in. we also have another complicating factor tha there is more precipitation in the forecast, which is a little weird! so let's talk about the weirdness that is in store for us. we begin with an overview o what to expect. cloudy with showers out there . that will continue tonight into early tomorrow morning. off and on rain tomorrow including the potential for isolated
11:17 pm
thunderstorms, something we don't get often around here. th unsettled pattern will continue past midweek but by far the highest rain chance we will see will be tomorrow and then the forecast trends gradually in a drier and warmer direction as w finish the work week and head into the first weekend in may. let's talk about the thunderstorm potential. it is not something we typically associate with the bay area weather because usually the ai near ground level is cooler by the pacific ocean, and it is going to be cooler than the air further up in the atmosphere. for the air to rise spontaneously informed thunderstorms, the envelope of the air that you want to push upward to form into a storm has to be warmer than the air aroun it. for the bay area that area is cool, so as it runs higher and higher up it runs into thes areas like a lid and keeps clouds from developing. there is a limit to how tall the showers can grow. the differenc tomorrow is the heart of the storm system will be overhead, which means the upper atmospher will be cooler. as the air rise
11:18 pm
up, it will be spontaneously able to grow and billow up to bring not just a lightning threat but also the potential for heavy downpours and hail ou of those storms as well. right now we have a lot of shower activity extending into so county let's switch over to futurecast and track it as we head through tonight. we will see widespread showers and a little bit of snow in the highest elevations of the foothills east of san jose . a little lull in the action by late morning, but by the afternoon that is when we will likely see the showers develop into actual thunderstorms, especially further from the coast. that activity will diminish after the sun goes dow tomorrow evening. a lot of showers, a couple of which may
11:19 pm
develop into storms. temperatures will not change much from where they are right now. we are in the neighborhood of 50 degrees of the moment and we will only drop into the uppe 40s. we do not warm up a lot tomorrow. temperatures are only going to top out around 60 degrees around the entire bay area. pretty much everybody within a degree of 60 and way below normal. in the temperatures should be in the mid to low 70s this time of yea and they will not be anytime soon. keep the showers in the forecast wednesday and thursday but diminishing rain chances after tomorrow. they do not dro low enough to take the raindrop out of the forecast ys of the seven-day forecast sunday and monday, temperatures will struggle to get into the upper 60s. this is still way below normal, and of course along the coast you will be ver consistent just hovering in the mid-to-upper 50s for highs. jus a chilly weather pattern, colde than the giants bullpen, vern. oh man! straight ahead, a couple of guys with major leagu pedigree collided tonight. who was the player of giants passed who
