San Francisco was hit with its first-ever tornado warning after a devastating storm tore through northern California, flipping cars and leaving multiple people injured.
Around one million people woke up to an alert urging them to 'take shelter' early Saturday, after the warning was extended into parts of neighboring San Mateo County.
Forecasters have since confirmed that a tornado ripped through Scotts Valley, located an hour and a half south of San Francisco.
Several people were treated for minor injuries after cars were flipped over on Mount Hermon Road, KION reports.
Terrifying video showed motorists struggling to maintain control of their cars amid the heavy winds and trees downed in the middle of the road.
Another clip taken in Scotts Valley showed the powerful funnel of wind whipping up branches and detritus as it rampaged through a Target parking lot.
Gusts of up to 80mph also toppled power lines and plunged around 221,000 people into blackouts, with tens of thousands still to regain power.
The stormy conditions are the result of a powerful atmospheric river which battered the West Coast.

Slamming and san francisco in the same headline has very gay vibes.
Since 1891, 435 tornadoes have been recorded in San Francisco.
NWS San Francisco seemed to be pretty non-plussed about it. I imagine they’ll have a report on their website in a few days.
I saw some pretty concerning cloud rotation overhead at Sun Valley Mall one stormy day some years back. Nothing came of it, but it’s definitely not what we’re used to out West, here. Typically, our storm clouds move along in straight lines, so seeing that vortex type motion grabbed my attention.
funnel clouds over SF could turn into a real s**t-storm.

Scotts Valley, CA is 51 miles away from San Francisco “as the crow flies”...just up Hwy. 17 from Santa Cruz, CA, and the former home of a “Santa’s Village”.
The DM strikes again, just like this blunder: https://freerepublic.com/focus/chat/4284581/posts?page=19#19
Santa’s Village (I attended as a kid...no longer there):

Interesting coincidence, as Israel just took military control over the peaks of Mount Hermon in Syrian Golan, overlooking Damascus.
This is the San Fran Nan effect. San Fran Sicko is a helluva hard luck town.
🤔🤔🤔
I bet it stirred up some sh**! Literally!
It’s like a combination of Antifa violence and green energy blackouts.
“NWS San Francisco seemed to be pretty non-plussed about it. I imagine they’ll have a report on their website in a few days.”
So this is what it means when the proverbial “Sh*t hits the fan.”
I am happy at the devastation of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Good for them. Probably just blew the feces around a little.
This moral Amish community has never experienced such events.
The headline is BS! Scotts Valley isn’t in San Francisco. It’s about 70 miles to the south.
