The latest in a series of winter storms rolling through California has triggered evacuation orders in San Mateo County after closing several major highways.
Officials are ordering residents in multiple coastal communities, including Big Sur, Loma Mar and Año Nuevo Island, as well as
Butano State Park, to evacuate in anticipation of the heavy rain expected Tuesday evening.
A triple play of wet weather is bringing much-needed rain to drought-stricken California, but the latest round has forecasters warning of
an atmospheric river that could deliver significant rain and snow. The heaviest precipitation in the state is expected Tuesday night, when the latest system connects with the stream of high-moisture-content air that could create a pipeline of water.

A storm system arriving during the second half of next week has the potential to bring widespread moderate to heavy rain to Southern California, the National Weather Service says.
Rainfall rates could be high at times, raising the possibility of debris flows in the recent burn areas, as well as mud and rock slides on mountain roads. Significant snow accumulations are possible with the storm, mainly above 5,000 feet.
We are in for big changes in our weather pattern, with 3 storm systems moving through. The 1st and 2nd storms are colder systems with mainly snow impacts, and the 3rd storm is warmer w/ample moisture, shaping up to be a potentially big rain event. #socal#LArain#CAsnow#CArainpic.twitter.com/8qKMWlkQEY NWS Los Angeles (@NWSLosAngeles) January 22, 2021
