The latest in a series of atmospheric river storms spread across California on Tuesday, bringing another deluge of rain to the already-saturated state, while a Nor'easter swirling over New York and New England buried parts of the region in white.
Up to 10 inches of rain were forecast in some areas of California, while in higher elevations of 5,000 feet and above, where snow accumulations were already rooftop-high, up to 3 feet of fresh powder was expected to drop, according to the National Weather Service .
Nine atmospheric rivers already lashed California in rapid succession from late December through mid-January, triggering widespread flooding, levee failures, mudslides and punishing surf. At least 20 people perished. Mandatory evacuation orders remained in effect for residents in 10 California counties on Tuesday, according to the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
