SANTA CLARA — How the 49ers’ roster evolves from today through Feb. 11 will be fascinating, especially if they’re indeed playing at season’s end for the Lombardi Trophy in Las Vegas.Tuesday’s 53-man roster reveal was not fascinating, not shocking, and not troubling.The 49ers made their biggest roster move four days earlier, when they unloaded quarterback Trey Lance on the Dallas Cowboys for a fourth-round pick. It was a combined effort to move on with other quarterbacks, grant him a trade, save a few million on next year’s salary cap, and, here it comes, take accountability and criticism for trading up in 2021 to the No. 3 pick for such a raw prospect.“Fortunately, we still have a really good football team that I think has a legitimate shot,” general manager John Lynch said Friday night. “We’re focused on Game 1, but we have a championship-level roster. Now it’s what we make of it.”Lynch will have more to say about th...Big housing complex near downtown San Jose adds some affordable units

OROVILLE — Lake Oroville is down 40 feet from the start of the summer when the water level was at capacity thanks to a string of heavy winter storms.The storms also boosted the snowpack, allowing for consistent and often substantial runoff into the lake. Earlier this year, the California Department of Water Resources, which oversees the lake as well as the Oroville Dam, began releasing water from the reservoir’s main spillway in an effort to keep up with the inflows.The view of Lake Oroville from the top of the Oroville Dam in Butte County, California on Tuesday, Aug. 29, 2023. The 40-foot difference makes for a dramatic shift from what it was in May and June. (Jake Hutchison/Enterprise-Record) Because of this, the lake nearly reached its 900-foot capacity for the first time in years and for months following the storms. However, the slowing of the melt-off and the summer dryness have conspired to once again cut the water level. As of 4 p.m. Tuesday, the lake sits at an elevatio...Hurricane Idalia makes landfall on Florida's west coast as a dangerous Category 3 storm

CEDAR KEY, Fla. (AP) — Hurricane Idalia made landfall on Florida’s west coast as a dangerous Category 3 storm on Wednesday and was unleashing life-threatening storm surges and rainfall in an area not accustomed to such pummeling.More than 200,000 customers were without electricity as trees snapped by strong winds brought down power lines and water submerged streets. Along the coast, some homes were submerged to near their rooftops, and structures along the ocean crumpled in the surge. As the eye moved inland, destructive winds shredded signs and rooftops. “We have multiple trees down, debris in the roads, do not come,” posted the fire and rescue department in Cedar Key, which was taking some of the biggest storm surge. The department's post said most of the streets around the downtown area were under water. Idalia came ashore in the lightly populated Big Bend region, where the Florida Panhandle curves into the peninsula. It made landfall near Keaton Beach at 7:45 a.m. as a high-end ...28-year-old woman killed in Salinas home, boyfriend arrested

NEW YORK (AP) — Shawn Batey was sweating in the August sun on the 100th day of the writers strike, carrying her “IATSE Solidarity” sign on the picket line outside Netflix’s New York offices, but she was glad to be there. A props assistant and documentary filmmaker, Batey is a member of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees, the union that represents most Hollywood crew members, and has recently worked on “Pose” and “Russian Doll.” But since the writers strike began in May and the actors joined them on July 14, Batey has had trouble covering her expenses — so she applied to the emergency fund from the Entertainment Community Fund for help.“They say apply when you’re at a critical point,” said Batey, adding that she needed to show her union card, her wages and, in her case, that she’d worked as a member of the union for a certain number of years. The application is lengthy, but she said, “It is definitely worth for people to apply. Just be patient.”Batey...Haymarket teen charged in Prince William Co. car crash that killed 19-year-old
