A quick look at \u003ca href=\"https://usa.fishermap.org/depth-map/pacific-ocean/#map\">a coastal ocean depth map\u003c/a> will show that the shallow water around San Francisco extends about 26 miles, past the Farallon Islands.[aside postID=\"news_11916632\" label=\"Related Coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But down by Monterey there’s something called \u003ca href=\"https://www.mbari.org/know-your-ocean/monterey-canyon/\">the Monterey Canyon\u003c/a>. It’s one of the deepest ocean canyons on the West Coast, starting near Moss Landing and extending out across Monterey Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are a few types of orcas. The transient orcas, which feed on mammals, tend to prey on seals, sea lions, sea otters, porpoises and also baby whales from other species. That means orcas hunt during sea lion and seal pupping season, which is happening right now at the Farallon Islands, said Pierson — and could explain some of the higher level of activity there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They also hunt during humpback and gray whale migration season. The humpbacks and gray whales stay close to shore, in shallower water, to protect their babies. Where they need to cross the deep water channel, or get near the deep water in Monterey Bay, orcas can pick off their babies. That’s also happening right now. (Because of this, humpbacks really don’t like orcas; \u003ca href=\"https://www.science.org/content/article/why-did-humpback-whale-just-save-seals-life\">they have even been known to save other animals\u003c/a>, like seals, from orcas.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]So far, whale experts don’t think there’s a larger trend happening, although climate change has certainly affected gray whales’ ability to eat enough in Alaska — warmer waters are making the shrimp they dine on rare, and that’s caused a recent increase in gray whales dying during the trip.

Mostly, we get humpback and gray whales. Sometimes, there are orcas or blue whales. “Recently, we’ve been seeing [whales] daily in Monterey,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are the best times to see the following whales:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.montereybayaquarium.org/animals/animals-a-to-z/gray-whale\">\u003cb>Gray whales\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gray whales make a 12,000-mile round trip every year, summering in Alaska and then traveling to Mexico to winter off the coast of Baja, where they give birth in protected lagoons before heading back. They’re typically found around Monterey and the Bay Area from December to February, and then from April to May, although they’re not all on the same schedule.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.montereybayaquarium.org/animals/animals-a-to-z/humpback-whale\">\u003cb>Humpback whales\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The humpback whales that winter in Mexico tend to spend their summers around here or in Oregon. Often, whole pods feed throughout the summer in Monterey Bay, and can be seen from April or May through October or November. Activity can be especially high in August and September, said Scrutton. “They’re the most acrobatic of whales we see,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.montereybayaquarium.org/animals/animals-a-to-z/blue-whale\">\u003cb>Blue whales\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The largest animal on earth, blue whales are also incredibly rare to spot. They tend to live in deeper waters, but feed off Monterey in the summer from June to October.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.montereybayaquarium.org/animals/animals-a-to-z/orca\">Orcas (aka killer whales)\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While orcas are constantly on the move, ranging all up and down the West Coast, there is typically more activity around the Bay Area during the spring when gray whales are migrating, because that’s a good time to catch a calf for eating. However, because orcas constantly go where the food is, they don’t tend to spend more than a few days in one place — though they will travel and come back.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 id=\"jump\">Where can I see whales in the Bay Area?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Unfortunately, it’s very rare to see orcas near San Francisco, even at this time of year, because of our shallow water. While humpback whales might occasionally come into the bay to feed, Black said she had never heard of orcas coming into the San Francisco Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s also a math problem. There are, by Black’s estimate, about 120 killer whales that regularly frequent the waters off Monterey and the Bay Area. (One unique thing that likely contributed to recent sightings was a group of orcas that typically live in Canada traveling to become part of the large groups spotted here.) By comparison, there are about 5,000 humpback whales that make the migration. So your odds of seeing humpbacks are better.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Whale watching from shore\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Your best bets from shore, said Pierson, are places with high vantage points, like near the lighthouses at Point Reyes or Point Bonita. Lands End, in the city, can be good, if you look out in the distance. Or go where deep water comes close to shore down at Point Lobos or near the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Still, it’s really just luck.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Whale watching from a boat\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>You’re much more likely to see whales if you head out to where they are.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both Pierson and Black run whale-watching tours, with the \u003ca href=\"https://www.oceanicsociety.org/\">Oceanic Society\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://montereybaywhalewatch.com/trips.htm\">Monterey Bay Whale Watch\u003c/a>, respectively. In the Bay Area, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.oceanicsociety.org/expedition/farallon-islands-wildlife-expedition/\">Oceanic Society goes out to the Farallons\u003c/a> every Saturday and Sunday; right now, you can also see 300,000 to 500,000 birds during their nesting season. (\u003ca href=\"https://sanfranciscowhaletours.com/whale-watching/golden-gate-whale-watch/\">San Francisco Whale Tours\u003c/a> also takes boats out to the Farallons.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How do the tours find whales? By looking for spouts or spray far off in the distance. Using smell on foggy days is another way to find them, said Pierson. It “smells like rotten broccoli and fish,” he said. “Once you smell it, you never forget the smell.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"tellus\">\u003c/a>Tell us: What else do you need information about?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>At KQED News, we know that it can sometimes be hard to track down the answers to navigate life in the Bay Area in 2023.

Sometimes, there are orcas or blue whales. “Recently, we’ve been seeing [whales] daily in Monterey,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are the best times to see the following whales:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.montereybayaquarium.org/animals/animals-a-to-z/gray-whale\">\u003cb>Gray whales\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gray whales make a 12,000-mile round trip every year, summering in Alaska and then traveling to Mexico to winter off the coast of Baja, where they give birth in protected lagoons before heading back. They’re typically found around Monterey and the Bay Area from December to February, and then from April to May, although they’re not all on the same schedule.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.montereybayaquarium.org/animals/animals-a-to-z/humpback-whale\">\u003cb>Humpback whales\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The humpback whales that winter in Mexico tend to spend their summers around here or in Oregon. Often, whole pods feed throughout the summer in Monterey Bay, and can be seen from April or May through October or November. Activity can be especially high in August and September, said Scrutton. “They’re the most acrobatic of whales we see,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.montereybayaquarium.org/animals/animals-a-to-z/blue-whale\">\u003cb>Blue whales\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The largest animal on earth, blue whales are also incredibly rare to spot. They tend to live in deeper waters, but feed off Monterey in the summer from June to October.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.montereybayaquarium.org/animals/animals-a-to-z/orca\">Orcas (aka killer whales)\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While orcas are constantly on the move, ranging all up and down the West Coast, there is typically more activity around the Bay Area during the spring when gray whales are migrating, because that’s a good time to catch a calf for eating. However, because orcas constantly go where the food is, they don’t tend to spend more than a few days in one place — though they will travel and come back.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 id=\"jump\">Where can I see whales in the Bay Area?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Unfortunately, it’s very rare to see orcas near San Francisco, even at this time of year, because of our shallow water. While humpback whales might occasionally come into the bay to feed, Black said she had never heard of orcas coming into the San Francisco Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s also a math problem. There are, by Black’s estimate, about 120 killer whales that regularly frequent the waters off Monterey and the Bay Area. (One unique thing that likely contributed to recent sightings was a group of orcas that typically live in Canada traveling to become part of the large groups spotted here.) By comparison, there are about 5,000 humpback whales that make the migration. So your odds of seeing humpbacks are better.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Whale watching from shore\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Your best bets from shore, said Pierson, are places with high vantage points, like near the lighthouses at Point Reyes or Point Bonita. Lands End, in the city, can be good, if you look out in the distance. Or go where deep water comes close to shore down at Point Lobos or near the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Still, it’s really just luck.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Whale watching from a boat\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>You’re much more likely to see whales if you head out to where they are.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both Pierson and Black run whale-watching tours, with the \u003ca href=\"https://www.oceanicsociety.org/\">Oceanic Society\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://montereybaywhalewatch.com/trips.htm\">Monterey Bay Whale Watch\u003c/a>, respectively. In the Bay Area, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.oceanicsociety.org/expedition/farallon-islands-wildlife-expedition/\">Oceanic Society goes out to the Farallons\u003c/a> every Saturday and Sunday; right now, you can also see 300,000 to 500,000 birds during their nesting season. (\u003ca href=\"https://sanfranciscowhaletours.com/whale-watching/golden-gate-whale-watch/\">San Francisco Whale Tours\u003c/a> also takes boats out to the Farallons.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How do the tours find whales? By looking for spouts or spray far off in the distance. Using smell on foggy days is another way to find them, said Pierson. It “smells like rotten broccoli and fish,” he said. “Once you smell it, you never forget the smell.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"tellus\">\u003c/a>Tell us: What else do you need information about?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>At KQED News, we know that it can sometimes be hard to track down the answers to navigate life in the Bay Area in 2023.

Construction is scheduled to begin in 2024.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11943355\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11943355\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/03/Alfredo_Torres_2-800x450.jpeg\" alt=\"An aerial view of a flooded river overflowing into two sides of the town with a bridge going over it.\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/03/Alfredo_Torres_2-800x450.jpeg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/03/Alfredo_Torres_2-1020x574.jpeg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/03/Alfredo_Torres_2-160x90.jpeg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/03/Alfredo_Torres_2-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/03/Alfredo_Torres_2-1920x1080.jpeg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/03/Alfredo_Torres_2.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The flooded Pajaro River on March 11, 2023. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Alfredo Torres)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The Monterey County Sheriff’s Office, North Monterey County Fire and the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (Cal Fire) said in a statement on March 1 that they are currently assisting community members who did not evacuate earlier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The California National Guard said they conducted 56 rescues of people who were stranded by the flooding throughout the night.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"singleTwitterStatus","attributes":{"named":{"id":"1634582211239505920"},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://montereyco.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=905a9458324b4868804d96b5593eb978\">Up-to-date road closures and evacuation maps can be found here.\u003c/a> The \u003ca href=\"https://quickmap.dot.ca.gov/\">Caltrans QuickMap\u003c/a> app also provides up-to-date information on road closures and openings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weather-related \u003ca class=\"c-link\" href=\"https://gis.data.ca.gov/datasets/CalEMA::cumulative-statewide-power-outages-public-view-2/explore?layer=2&location=37.024088%2C-119.404500%2C6.62\">power outages\u003c/a> affected more than 17,000 customers in Monterey County late Saturday, according to Cal OES.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The County of Monterey has been advising residents of Pajaro to not use tap water for drinking and cooking until further notice, saying that wells for the Pajaro/Sunny Mesa water district were flooded and that “flood water may be contaminated with chemicals that would not be made safe by boiling or disinfection.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Residents in the evacuation zone in need of help should call 911 immediately.

Pacifica Lays Claim to Iconic Jack Cheese | KQED","labelTerm":{},"content":"\u003cp>Whether melted in a quesadilla or a grilled cheese sandwich, or sliced on a charcuterie board next to one of its stinkier cousins, Monterey Jack is a staple cheese. Its flavor is similar to cheddar, but it contains a bit more moisture. Despite its popularity, there remains some mystery around Monterey Jack’s true origins. Though it may have the name “Monterey,” the town of Pacifica lays claim to the iconic cheese.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[baycuriouspodcastinfo]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The recipe for what we now call Monterey Jack is believed — by some — to have originated in California’s missions in the 1700s. But the soft, mild cheese got its name — at least the “Jack” part — much later from a wealthy Monterey landowner named David Jack. Jack popularized and marketed the cheese. But how he got his hands on the recipe is wrapped up in local pride — and lore.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>David Jack and Monterey\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>David Jack was born in Scotland in 1822 and had emigrated to America by the time he reached adulthood. After a stop on the East Coast, where he acquired a shipment of guns, Jack arrived in California in 1849 in the midst of the Gold Rush. Firearms were a hot commodity in those days, and Jack sold the guns for a huge profit. He took that money and went prospecting, but never found gold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11916550\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 590px\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-11916550 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/06/David_Jack.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"590\" height=\"686\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/06/David_Jack.jpg 590w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/06/David_Jack-160x186.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 590px) 100vw, 590px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">David Jack \u003ccite>(I.W. Taber/Public domain)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Jack began calling himself David Jacks at this point, and moved to the small town of Monterey, where he began to acquire land. Kathleen Manning from the Pacifica Historical Society says much of that acquisition was through what she called “shady land deals.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1851, at the end of the Mexican-American war, as part of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, the land around California was divided up and sold. The pueblo of Monterey, as it was then known, hired an attorney named Dalos Rodeyn to handle some land deals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the town had no money to pay him and had to sell land to pay that debt. That attorney teamed up with Jacks to buy the entire town of Monterey and much of the adjacent land at a very low rate. Jacks became the de facto landlord of the region, and began lending money against people’s land, and then foreclosing and taking ownership of even more land in the region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was able to take advantage of a lot of people. He has a very bad reputation,” said Manning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The town of Monterey tried a few times to buy itself back from Jacks, even sending a case to the U.S. Supreme Court in 1906, but Jacks won.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Besides land, Jacks had another business interest: dairy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There were hundreds of dairies making milk and various types of cheese around Monterey at the time, and several were on Jacks’ land. One of those dairies was making a mild, soft, white cheese — sound familiar? Jacks would market and sell that cheese with his name on it, and the official Jack cheese was born.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The original recipe for the cheese Jacks would sell as his own could have come from any number of places — but where?\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Pacifica connection\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>According to a 1938 cookbook, “Eating Around San Francisco,” the recipe for what we now know as Jack cheese originated on Mori Point in Pacifica. The author visited Mori Point and wrote:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“I was interested to discover that it was Stephano Mori, who first made what we today call Monterey cheese. Having been born and brought up in Italy, Stephano and his wife learned there how to make cheese. They made it on their Mori Point property. The cheese was very good.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“An Italian named Baldocchi was a friend of the family. He learned how to make the cheese and went to Monterey and manufactured it on a commercial scale. As he was on the Jack ranch. The cheese is now known as Jack or Monterey cheese.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>If this book is to be believed, Baldocchi took the recipe from the Moris, moved to Monterey and mass-produced it with David Jacks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery columns=\"2\" ids=\"11916551,11916552,11916562,11916563\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Other theories\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Not everyone is sold on Jack cheese being from Pacifica. In fact, there are a number of claims to the lineage of Monterey Jack. Some point to Domingo Pedrazzi of Carmel Valley, who made a cheese called “jack cheese.” It required pressure to remove moisture, which he accomplished with a “jack press.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s also been argued that a local woman who sold homemade queso del país — like the cheese made at California’s historic missions — could be the person Jacks took the recipe from.

But the soft, mild cheese got its name — at least the “Jack” part — much later from a wealthy Monterey landowner named David Jack. Jack popularized and marketed the cheese. But how he got his hands on the recipe is wrapped up in local pride — and lore.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>David Jack and Monterey\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>David Jack was born in Scotland in 1822 and had emigrated to America by the time he reached adulthood. After a stop on the East Coast, where he acquired a shipment of guns, Jack arrived in California in 1849 in the midst of the Gold Rush. Firearms were a hot commodity in those days, and Jack sold the guns for a huge profit. He took that money and went prospecting, but never found gold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11916550\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 590px\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-11916550 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/06/David_Jack.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"590\" height=\"686\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/06/David_Jack.jpg 590w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/06/David_Jack-160x186.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 590px) 100vw, 590px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">David Jack \u003ccite>(I.W.

Kathleen Manning from the Pacifica Historical Society says much of that acquisition was through what she called “shady land deals.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1851, at the end of the Mexican-American war, as part of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, the land around California was divided up and sold. The pueblo of Monterey, as it was then known, hired an attorney named Dalos Rodeyn to handle some land deals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the town had no money to pay him and had to sell land to pay that debt. That attorney teamed up with Jacks to buy the entire town of Monterey and much of the adjacent land at a very low rate. Jacks became the de facto landlord of the region, and began lending money against people’s land, and then foreclosing and taking ownership of even more land in the region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was able to take advantage of a lot of people. He has a very bad reputation,” said Manning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The town of Monterey tried a few times to buy itself back from Jacks, even sending a case to the U.S. Supreme Court in 1906, but Jacks won.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Besides land, Jacks had another business interest: dairy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There were hundreds of dairies making milk and various types of cheese around Monterey at the time, and several were on Jacks’ land. One of those dairies was making a mild, soft, white cheese — sound familiar?

Having been born and brought up in Italy, Stephano and his wife learned there how to make cheese. They made it on their Mori Point property. The cheese was very good.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“An Italian named Baldocchi was a friend of the family. He learned how to make the cheese and went to Monterey and manufactured it on a commercial scale. As he was on the Jack ranch. The cheese is now known as Jack or Monterey cheese.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>If this book is to be believed, Baldocchi took the recipe from the Moris, moved to Monterey and mass-produced it with David Jacks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"gallery","attributes":{"named":{"columns":"2","ids":"11916551,11916552,11916562,11916563","label":""},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Other theories\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Not everyone is sold on Jack cheese being from Pacifica.
