The intense precipitation from the atmospheric river has caused widespread chaos in California, with warnings of severe flooding particularly impacting the Eel River Delta.
Meteorologist Douglas Boushey highlighted the dangers of flooding, recalling a tragic event in 2019 when a man died trying to reach his children amid rising waters.
Evacuation warnings are in effect for lower-lying areas in Ferndale, emphasizing the urgency for residents to leave, especially those with pets or special needs.
Boushey described the recent storm as highly unusual, noting that it has brought rainfall two to four standard deviations above normal for this time of year.
