    🌅 Some offices have cubicles. We have this. Officer Findrick captured this morning’s sunrise along Highway 50. We’re not saying our office is better than yours… but the view speaks for itself. 😎 chpcareers.com #PlacervilleCHP #CHPMadeForMore #BestOfficeView

    ⚠️ Earlier this evening, a large boulder rolled onto US-50 near 39 milestone, creating a hazard. Officers responded and, with help from a Good Samaritan, safely removed it from the road. If you see hazards, slow down and report to 9-1-1. #PlacervilleCHP #US50 #DriveSafe

    As seasonably hot temperatures arrive late weekend into early next week, Moderate HeatRisk is expected to become more widespread Sunday-Tuesday. Highest chances for temperatures reaching the triple digits are currently anticipated Monday & Tuesday 🌡️ #CAwx
    Moderate HeatRisk returns to the region Sunday through Tuesday as high pressure builds in and temperatures become seasonably hot. Moderate HeatRisk means that this level of heat will affect most individuals sensitive to heat and those without adequate cooling or hydration.
    Probability of high temperatures exceeding 100 degrees Sunday through Tuesday, May 10 to 12, 2026. Highest chances, up to 60 percent or greater are forecast for Tuesday.

    Parents: This is your wake-up call. A CA mother now faces felony charges after her 14-year-old, riding an illegal e-motorcycle, critically injured an 81-year-old man. We’re seeing the same here—reckless riding, fleeing, and illegal bikes. “I didn’t know” won’t protect you.
