The Pacific Northwest and Northern California experienced a severe storm this week, fueled by an atmospheric river, leading to deaths and widespread power outages.
The storm caused power outages for half a million customers in Washington, with the Seattle area experiencing the worst impacts and resulting in at least two fatalities.
As the storm continued into Northern California, it disrupted hundreds of flights, caused creeks to flood, and dropped heavy snow in the Sierra Nevada and Cascade mountains.
Despite the storm weakening, residents faced ongoing challenges with over 90,000 customers in Washington and 17,000 in California still without power and flooding expected to persist.
