California on High Alert as Another Atmospheric River Prompts Widespread Flood Watch

A state still grappling with the aftermath of a recent powerful storm is now facing the threat of another atmospheric river, putting nearly all of California under a flood watch.

California remains saturated from the significant rainfall delivered by the previous storm system, setting the stage for potential flooding and other weather-related challenges as a new atmospheric river approaches from the Pacific. The Weather Prediction Center has issued an "excessive rain" outlook for most of California through Tuesday.
