Zephyr News

Zephyr News is KZFR’s weekly, volunteer-powered 30-minute local news program, created to inform, engage, and uplift the communities of the North State. Each episode features a mix of original reporting, interviews, and curated public affairs content drawn from KZFR’s long-standing news and community programming. The show focuses on the issues that matter most to our region, including local government, environmental and social concerns, Indigenous affairs, emergency information, and stories highlighting the people and organizations shaping life in Northern California. Produced by KZFR volunteers in collaboration with the station’s News Coordinator and Public Affairs programmers, Zephyr News brings together diverse viewpoints, community voices, and hyperlocal reporting not found in commercial media. During emergencies, the program serves as a trusted source for essential updates on evacuations, road conditions, and public safety information—continuing KZFR
