• Endless onslaught of atmospheric river events in California claim 14 lives, residents urged to be hyper-vigilant

    ByTeo Blašković

    California is once again under threat as an energetic low pressure system quickly gathers strength off the West Coast, bringing with it heavy precipitation, thunderstorms and several feet of snow in the Sierra Nevada region. This, along with already saturated soils and high river levels, is expected to exacerbate ongoing flooding, prolong the risk of flash flooding, and mudslides, especially in recent burn scar regions. The National Weather Service has issued a warning for residents to be prepared, as the heavy rainfall, especially in southern California, is expected to be excessive today and tonight.

  • Parade of intense storms continues to batter California — rapid river rises, mudslides, and burn scar flash floods expected

    The continuous rounds of heavy rain on already saturated soils across California will likely lead to significant flooding, rapid river rises, mudslides, and flash floods or debris flows in burn scar areas. In addition, gusty winds may cause trees and power lines to fall. Travel in the mountains may also be hazardous due to heavy snowfall.

    A multi-hazard storm will bring a swath of heavy snow, sleet, and ice in the north and central Plains and Upper Midwest during the next couple of days, the National Weather Service (NWS) warns. Across the Arklatex region and into the Mid-South, severe storms with all hazards and heavy to excessive rain can be expected, with the primary severe threats of tornadoes, some strong, and damaging winds.

    An Arctic front will continue widespread, dangerous cold, with areas of blinding snow squalls and flash freezing over the central and eastern U.S. through the rest of this week. A strong winter storm will form on this front and bring blizzard conditions to the Plains, Upper Midwest, and Great Lakes. The eastern U.S. will see heavy rain, high winds, and coastal flooding ahead of the cold blast.
