USACE Rebuilds Weather Stations in California for Flood Risk Management
DEFENSE
In 2025, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers rebuilt two weather stations in Sequoia and Kings National Parks—Upper Tyndall and Mitchell Meadow—to enhance flood risk management. The new 30-foot towers, equipped with updated sensors and data loggers, will provide crucial data on snowpack and rainfall for the Kern and Kings River watersheds. The construction utilized helicopter transport for equipment due to the remote locations of the stations.
