The National Weather Service estimates up to two inches of rain could hit areas Los Angeles, Ventura, San Louis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties, bringing flood and debris advisories in recent burn areas.

This type of storm is called a “bomb cycle” or “atmospheric river” ad is caused by a long and wide band of moisture pulled in from the Pacific Ocean.

The storm has already brought record-breaking rainfall to the northern part of the state.

San Francisco received a record-breaking 5.5 inches of rain over a 24-hour period. The rainfall led to traffic accidents in the Bay area, according to local reports.

There are over 100,000 people without power across California as of Monday afternoon, according to Poweroutage.us.

The rain comes after long spells of droughts and wildfires in the area.

“This event may cause flooding in the city, including on highways, streets, underpasses, as well as other poor drainage or low-lying spots,” NYC Emergency Management Incoming Acting Commissioner Andrew D’Amora said in a statement. “New Yorkers should give themselves additional travel time and take the appropriate precautions if they must move about the city during the storm.”

The NWS said roadways are likely to flood and there is a threat of minor mud and debris flows in recent burn areas.

Over the past 12 hours, several cities in the area experienced wind gusts above 60 mph.

The current record stands at 123 and was set in 2018. So far, there have been 119 tornadoes this month. But with possible tornadoes Monday and Tuesday, AccuWeather predicts a new record will be set.

The Storm Prediction Center (SPC) already reported at least 15 tornadoes on Sunday, mostly from Missouri.

Areas stretching from southern Pennsylvania to Maryland and into northern Georgia and South Carolina could be affected by tornado warnings this week.

Meanwhile, the Northeast and mid-Atlantic will face nor’easter conditions into Tuesday.

The heavy rainfall has made visibility difficult on the road.

Long Beach has set up several locations where residents can pick up sandbags.

The Los Angeles County Fire Department also shared where people can pick up sandbags.

“Not all fire stations have sand,” the department said on Twitter. “However, they can direct you to a public works yard where sand is available.”

“There is no longer an immediate threat of significant damaging debris flows,” NWS Los Angeles said. Scattered showers will continue.

There is a flash flooding warning in place as “flooding and debris flows are imminent or happening now,” Santa Barbara County tweeted.
