Flooding as Atmospheric River Drenches North California

A powerful atmospheric river drenched Northern California on the morning of October 24, with the National Weather Service issuing flood warnings.

The downpour broke the one-day rainfall record for downtown San Francisco, while also making it the area’s second-wettest October on record. Some rainfall totals passed a one-foot mark.

The storm led to 143,000 power outages, according to Pacific Gas & Electric.
