The Latest: Rain-swollen Sacramento River flows over barrier

The bypass is an expanse of farmland and natural habitat that stretches from Sacramento to Davis and was created a century ago.

A storm dumping rain in much of Northern California is expected to weaken as it moves south, though the southern part of the state could see scattered showers or drizzle.
