- Story Text: Storms pounded California on Saturday (January 14) in the latest of a series of atmospheric rivers rarely seen in such frequent succession since December 26, killing at least 19 people and bringing floods, power outages, mudslides, evacuations, and road closures.
The latest storm, the season's eighth, was dumping heavy rain on California from early on Saturday, the National Weather Service's Weather Prediction Center said.
The six-day forecast called for 4 to 6 inches (10 to 15 cm) more rain in California's north and 1 to 3 inches (2.5 to 7.5 cm) in its south, the state's water resources department said on Friday.
At least seven waterways were officially flooded, it added.
The ninth and final atmospheric river of the series is due to make landfall on Monday ( January 16) and last a couple of days.
