The latest spate of harsh wintry weather from the Pacific Ocean churned into storm-weary California on Tuesday, with forecasters warning of wind gusts reaching hurricane force, accompanied by torrential rain and heavy mountain snow. | Reuters

Flood watches were in place for a region of more than 17 million people, including most of greater Los Angeles and a large swath of western and central Arizona.

It marked the 12th so-called atmospheric river to sweep the U.S. West Coast since December. Coming in two waves that struck California in rapid succession along with other winter storms, the torrential cloudbursts have unleashed widespread flooding, mudslides and punishing surf. More than 20 people have perished.

Unlike earlier atmospheric rivers this season, the latest packed a cooler load of moisture, meaning more snow will fall in the higher coastal mountains and Sierra Nevada range.
