A powerful winter storm crashing across the West on Sunday slammed parts of Southern California with more than 7 inches of rain and promised to snarl travel with feet of snow in some areas from the mountains of the Golden State through the Midwest.
, the weather service reported. More than 4 inches swamped some areas of Los Angeles County, and localized rainfall rates of up to an inch an hour were drenching parts of southwestern California, with total rainfall reaching three inches in some areas. Flash flooding and debris flow were a concern, particularly in and near recent areas burned by wildfires in the drought-stricken region.
The National Weather Service was warning of possible severe weather Tuesday and Wednesday in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. Severe thunderstorms will be capable of producing tornadoes, damaging winds and hail, the weather service said. "Blizzard conditions possible portions of northeast Colorado late Monday night - Tuesday night," the weather service's Boulder officer tweeted."Significant travel impacts, whiteouts, road closures & harsh livestock conditions will be possible."
