The Santa Clara Vector Control District is planning an aerial larva-control operation using pesticides to reduce nuisance mosquitoes in the Palo Alto flood basin on Valentine's Day.

Palo Alto deals with storm aftermath, causing tree collapses and power outages with ongoing clean-up efforts and a few facility closures. The city advises caution and preparedness for more potential adverse weather.

San José declares an emergency due to an incoming storm expected to bring heavy rain and strong winds, which could cause the Guadalupe River to flood. Residents are advised to stay informed and prepared to evacuate if necessary.
