A cyclone emergency has been declared as a powerful bomb cyclone threatens Northern California, Oregon, and Washington. The storm, intensifying rapidly through bombogenesis, will bring heavy rain, snow, and winds up to 70 mph.

Rainfall of 8–12 inches, with up to 15 inches in some areas, may cause flooding and landslides, especially in wildfire-affected regions. Mountain passes like Siskiyou and Snoqualmie will face hazardous snow and icy conditions.

Coastal areas should brace for 26-foot waves, while strong winds may lead to power outages and falling trees. Mariners are urged to stay in port.

Residents should secure outdoor items, stock emergency supplies, and monitor official weather updates to stay safe during this severe storm.
