California Braces for Another Round of Heavy Rain from Atmospheric Rivers
TL;DR Summary
California is facing its 12th atmospheric river this season, causing flooding, mudslides, and evacuations. The storms have replenished reservoirs but also caused chaos, with Governor Gavin Newsom declaring an emergency in 43 of 58 counties. Levee breaches in Tulare County have forced residents to evacuate, while a levee break in Monterey County submerged local farms and closed Highway 1. In the Sierra Nevada, warm rain from atmospheric rivers has added weight to snow piles, causing roof collapses and avalanches.
