Storm Rages Across California With Fresh Flood Threat
A Pacific storm, among winter’s strongest, drenched California towns with up to 2 inches of rain and threatened coastal winds to 60 mph and 30 foot waves. The storm follows a weekend of mudslides that killed at least five, with 11 dead and $100 million in damage from four storms last week. The system moved into Southern California by Monday afternoon, delivering 2.18 inches in San Gabriel and prompting flood fears from Louisiana to the Carolinas due to another Gulf storm.
