What is an atmospheric river? How will the next one affect Northern California?

The next several days in Northern California will be dry and warm for late January, but recent headlines have been pointing attention towards wetter weather for the West Coast as February begins.

The KCRA 3 weather team has rain chances in the forecast late Wednesday through Friday next week.

This rain will be fueled by an atmospheric river system, but so far, the impacts look very manageable for the region.
