The San Francisco Bay area is the first region to host a Super Bowl in a state where marijuana is readily available, though technically only legal for medical purposes.
California regulators approved rules that for the first time require mandatory water reductions across the state as a historic drought gripping the region enters its fourth year.
A slow-moving storm causing flooding and power outages in northern California would need to be replicated at least five more times for meteorologists to declare an end to the states historic drought.
