California faces more blizzards, floods in multistate storm -
Overnight lows could drop below freezing in some areas while downtown San Francisco could see record-breaking cold temperatures Saturday morning, according to the National Weather Service. Projected temperatures of 38 degrees Fahrenheit would see the city at its coldest since 2009, the weather service said.
Meanwhile, people farther east were struggling to deal with the fallout from storms earlier this week. Back in California, the Weather Prediction Center of the National Weather Service predicted heavy snow over the Cascade Mountains and the Sierra Nevada into the weekend. An avalanche warning was issued for the Sierra Nevada backcountry around Lake Tahoe, which straddles the California-Nevada border. Nearly 2 feet of new snow had fallen by Friday and up to another 5 feet was expected when another storm moves in with the potential for gale-force winds and high-intensity flurries Sunday, the weather service said.
The wintry blasts have led to hundreds of cancelled flights at airports around the country and shut down miles of major highways in several states.
