Millions under flood watch as deadly California storm moves north
BBC News, Washington and San Francisco
The barrage of wind and rain have left neighbourhoods under water, downed trees and caused rockslides.More than 4.5 million Californians were under flood watches early on Wednesday, with thousands still displaced.Mr Newsom said Californians must get used to "this weather whiplash", or bouts of extreme dry to extreme wet, as they will become more common as a consequence of climate change.
"It's all personal stuff, like stuffed animals from when I was younger, school projects I made in elementary school - just soaked through. Photos that have been smashed," she told the BBC. This newest round of storms is expected to pummel the state's northern coast with torrential downpours and gale force winds, the National Weather Service said, with the threat of flooding in place until Friday.
Around 50,000 residents are still in the dark, about one-fifth the number on Tuesday. And in Santa Barbara County - home to celebrities like Oprah Winfrey, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle - all evacuation and shelter-in-place orders were cancelled.
