If you manage water in California, you’ve felt the frustration of making high-stakes decisions with vague outlooks or shifting forecasts.

For decades, leaders in agriculture, reservoir operations, and water policy have been stuck with seasonal precipitation outlooks that arrive too late, change too often, or are too unreliable to act on.  

That uncertainty forces hesitation. 

It delays action. 

And it costs money and opportunity.

What if you could:

• Know in November whether the year will be dry, normal, or above normal—and by how much
  
  
• Make confident reservoir storage and release decisions months before official allocations
  
  
• Stop chasing a moving target; use a forecast that stays fixed all season

That’s exactly what the Weather Tools product suite delivers.

Just ask Randy Fiorini.

Randy has spent decades making critical decisions in farming, reservoir operations, and statewide water policy. For most of that time, long-range forecasts fell short. 

When he first encountered Weather Tools, he was skeptical. 

But after seeing years of proven accuracy and spending time with the Weather Tools team, he became an advocate.

Today, Randy believes the Weather Tools precipitation and reservoir inflow products (CAP and CRAFT) can reshape water management across California.

As Randy puts it: “Whether you’re operating a ranch, running a water district, or planning at the state level—if you can base your decisions on sound information ahead of time, you’re not guessing. You’re leading.”
