Southern California is in the middle of 4 separate storm systems this week and what extremes! We start with a picture of snowplows on the Grapevine, a hill on the I5 in southern CA.
This is a picture of someone being towed on a skim board down a main street in about 2 feet of water.
Mud and water tearing down the hillside filled this tunnel with debris.
The fires from last summer resulted in bare hillsides which are now threatening mud landslides. This shows 7 areas which are under evacuation orders; in total 2000 housesholds must move out.
The green on the map shows where the rain is pouring down which is almost everywhere. We were driving on I10 Tuesday and it took us an hour
to do a 20 minute 
trip because there was a foot of rain on the freeway and you had to crawl along at 10 mph.
