New El Niño Storm Moves Into California
SACRAMENTO (CBS13/AP) - The thousand-mile coast of California is covered in warnings, watches and advisories for rain, flooding and high surf as another El Niño storm moves in from the Pacific.
The system Wednesday will pack colder temperatures, stronger winds and heavier rainfall than the two previous storms that have battered the state since the weekend.
Motorists in mountain areas are warned that blizzard conditions are possible above 4,000 feet -- including several inches of snow and wind gusts up to 60 mph.
Flash flooding and flows of mud and debris are a worry in foothill neighborhoods beneath areas left barren by last year's wildfires.
