California-Delta
is a 1000- mile waterway system in the Sacramento and San Joaquin Valley areas. Five rivers feed the Delta, including the Sacramento River and the San Joaquin River. This unique area definitely has a laid back, unhurried kind of lifestyle. Some have even described it as a "Huck Finn" kind of place. The cities of Sacramento and Stockton are nearby, but the Delta itself is mostly made up of several small historic towns, some that date back to the California Gold Rush. Some of these towns are pretty much the way they've always been, and in some, the mail is still delivered by boat! Boating and fishing are the way of life here, and the area has over 100 marinas. In some parts of the waterway, you still cross on cable-drawn car ferries. Restaurants are plentiful along the California Delta, some with riverside views. Everything from picking wild blackberries to canoeing, kayaking, water skiing, and wind surfing are available here. And, every month of the year offers some kind of special event or festival along the Delta, where people can kick up their heels and have a fun time. Many have come to this little piece of paradise and decided to stay. You'll understand why when you visit the historic, beautiful California Delta!

California Delta Weather & Climate
|
|
|
The North Central Valley Region of California, including the California Delta, has weather that is hot and dry in the summertime, and wet and cool in the wintertime. Summers consist of low humidity levels, and occasional temperatures that climb above the 95-degree mark. In the Delta Area, where the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers meet, humidity is a little higher. Thunderstorms are possible anytime of the year, but they are usually light and infrequent. Rain is almost non-existent in summertime in the valley. In winter, the Pacific high that keeps storms at bay in summer retreats southward, bringing widespread, moderate precipitation to the area. Also in winter, a shallow layer of ground fog, known as "tule fog," frequently forms at night and can persist for two or three weeks. Flooding in winter results when rain is heavy over a period of one or two days.
