Storms across US bring heavy snow, dangerous ice and a tornado in California
SHARE

The first half of the weekend saw severe weather affecting various parts of the US, including heavy snow in upstate New York, an ice storm in the Midwest, tornado activity in Central California, and severe weather warnings around Lake Tahoe.

An ice storm starting on Friday evening caused hazardous driving conditions in Iowa and eastern Nebraska, leading to temporary closures of Interstate 80 as numerous vehicles slid off the road.

Upstate New York reported over 33 inches of snow near Orchard Park, a common area for lake-effect snow accumulation.

On Saturday, a tornado hit near a shopping mall in Scotts Valley, California, causing damage to cars, trees, and utility poles.

The tornado in Scotts Valley resulted in injuries and hospitalizations, while San Francisco also experienced tree and roof damage from the storm.

The weather service assessed the damage to determine if it was indeed caused by a tornado, a rare occurrence for the city.

More than a foot of snow fell at Lake Tahoe ski resorts, with strong winds recorded at Mammoth Mountain resort and Sierra Nevada expecting up to 3 feet of snow.

The severe weather in the Midwest led to at least one fatality, with businesses announcing delayed openings as temperatures began to rise and melt the ice.

Western Washington state experienced power outages as rain and strong winds hit the region over the weekend.
