I think CA is in for one of the worst rain/snow storms it has seen in a long time. Flooding, road washouts, stranded motorists and multiple wrecks on highways are highly probable.

Just looking at what is coming at us at THIS LINK (click on 'Loop 12) makes prior storms pale in comparison. There is one bright side to it - for the time being it looks like this will sail through rather rapidly, rather than sitting on top of us for days or hours within days.

Forgot to say - look at the monster-amount of rain just west of Hawaii - all of it (or most of it) appears headed California way pretty fast...

Thanks,...looks like the really heavy stuff is up toward San Francisco.
