A large part of the state is under a Flash Flood Watch with another atmospheric river on the way.
“We have back-to-back lows, one of which spinning up and bringing in some moisture across the northern tier of the Golden State, and then we have another low and another low behind that,” Minar added. “All of this is going to funnel in, our next atmospheric river, and that’s what we’re watching as we go into Tuesday.”The previous storm pounded parts of California Thursday and Friday.An EF-1 tornado briefly touched down in Tuolomne County on Saturday.
“Tuesday morning is when I think we’ll see the heaviest of that rain, just bullseye parts of Redding, California, toward Napa Valley and then work its way down the coast from Sacramento through San Francisco,” said FOX Weather meteorologist Michael Estime. Some mountain residents are still trapped by snow while other homeowners can’t even get through the unplowed roads to check on their homes.
A person walks a dog near snowbanks piled up from current and previous storms as snow continues to fall in the Sierra Nevada mountains.But, the weight of wet snow brings even more danger to the homes as roofs have started to collapse.Quickly melting the near record-breaking snowpack could create catastrophic flooding and landslides. Communities above 7,000 are in for another 1 to 3 feet of snow.
We have also seen dramatic video of raging fires in the snow after a roofalanche severed natural gas and propane lines leading into homes. The ground is already saturated and wind gusts from 45 to 60 mph and up to mph at the highest peaks will knock more trees down. Power is still being restored from the last wind and rainstorm, yet utilities are warning residents to be ready for blackouts. The worst of the mountain winds will likely be on Tuesday.
