The latest in a series of atmospheric river storms spread across California on Tuesday, bringing another deluge of rain.
In anticipation of the approaching “atmospheric river” — a narrow current of air laden with dense tropical moisture from the ocean — emergency crews have stepped up sand-bagging operations in recent days and mounted round-the-clock patrols of levees and rain-swollen riverbanks.
“The impact of this is really ramping up today,” said Marc Chenard, a meteorologist with the NWS Weather Prediction Center in College Park, Maryland. Most of the heavy weather would occur on Tuesday and Wednesday, he said, but flooding will persist. U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said on Monday on Twitter that he had been in touch with California Governor Gavin Newsom, and that the Federal Highway Administration stood ready to assist the state as needed.Article contentIn the Northeast and New England, a Nor’easter storm had already dumped 20 inches of snow in the Berkshires in western Massachusetts and northwestern Connecticut, and 8 inches of snow had fallen in Albany, New York.
Rock salt and snow shovels were flying off the shelves on Tuesday at Rocky’s Ace Hardware in Worcester, Massachusetts, 40 miles west of Boston, said the manager, Joshua Rivera, 21.
