The storm could lead to dangerous flash flooding, travel disruptions, and potential road closures. Flood watches are in effect, with significant rainfall expected in higher terrain areas. The wet weather is welcome after a dry start to the water year, but the Sierra Nevada snowpack remains low. Climate scientists attribute the changing precipitation patterns to climate change and a strong El Niño.
