California is currently battling a series of intense storms that have brought widespread flood warnings and road closures throughout the state. Southern California has been particularly affected, with areas such as Rocky Butte in San Luis Obispo County recording nearly 4 inches of rainfall. This has led to the closure of key transportation routes, including a section of Highway 1 near Big Sur and Topanga Canyon Road in Los Angeles County, due to hazardous conditions and debris flows. Northern California is also facing severe weather, including an avalanche in Nevada County, with ongoing flood and high wind advisories in place.
