Massive rainfall and heavy winds hit Northwest as ‘Bomb cyclone’ approaches


Residents in Lake Stevens, Washington, are surveying the extensive storm damage caused by a rare “bomb cyclone” that brought 70 mph wind gusts, knocking over trees and power lines and leaving nearly half a million residents without electricity. At least two people have died in Washington, and many others have been injured. The storm system also caused havoc in other states, including Oregon, California, and British Columbia.

Firefighters and paramedics have been responding to emergencies, such as a tree falling onto a trailer and trapping two people in Maple Valley, Washington. Social media images show fallen trees on buses, utility cables, and roads in Seattle and Sammamish, Washington. In San Francisco, California, workers were seen distributing sandbags as the storm approached.

In Lake Stevens, a power line pole lies splintered in the middle of a road, and workers are busy removing downed trees from roadways. Local resident Tiffani Palpong is anxiously waiting for her son Logan, who is trapped by downed power lines and trees on their property.

The storm has caused significant disruption and destruction across the region, with authorities urging residents to stay safe and avoid unnecessary travel. Cleanup and recovery efforts are expected to be extensive in the aftermath of this powerful storm.
