As of Monday, May 10th, California Governor Gavin Newsom expanded the state's drought emergency, which includes several Bay Area counties. Alameda, Contra Costa, Napa and Solano counties are now under the drought emergency and will need to take action.
According to KRON 4, "We’re looking at not only fire danger, but also the potential of communities running out of water."
State officials are also concerned about the warmer temperatures happening since April and continuing into this month.
