Californians are finally seeing relief after what officials are calling an “historic” three-day atmospheric river storm, but officials are warning that mudslides and floods may still threaten the Los Angeles area as another smaller storm system approaches the region just one day later. Atmospheric rivers, including “Pineapple Express” storms like the one that swept through California on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday have caused significant damage and killed dozens of residents in the past. In January 2023, a similar series of storms killed at least 20 people in the Golden State. The state has not released an official death toll for this year’s storm yet, but Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass confirmed that so far no Angelenos have been reported killed from effects of the storm. But Bass warned Tuesday night: “Though the rain is easing up we cannot drop our guard…even when the rain stops, the ground may continue to shift.” Elsewhere in the state, as many as nine people have been killed, the Los Angeles Times reported. At least three people were killed on Sunday evening in northern California by falling trees, while a fourth was killed by a fallen tree in Sacramento County. On Monday, the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office confirmed one person died after their car crashed before being swept away by floodwater. Another three people across the state were killed in car wrecks caused by the weather, state officials told the Los Angeles Times. On Tuesday, a man was found dead trying to cross the Tijuana River along the border of California and Mexico. The man’s identity and immigration status have not been confirmed, NBC San Diego reported.
