"California Prepares for Double Deluge: Back-to-Back 'Pineapple Express' Storms to Bring Heavy Rain and Flooding"

California and the West Coast are bracing for severe weather with more than 22 million people under flood alerts and 32 million under high wind alerts as back-to-back "Pineapple Express" storms bring heavy rain, wind, and snow. The storms, originating from subtropical waters around Hawaii, are expected to cause widespread power outages and potential flooding. Authorities are preparing with sandbags and flood-blocking measures, while warnings and evacuations have been issued in flood-prone areas. The severe weather has already caused accidents and rescues, with a stronger storm expected to hit Sunday through Tuesday, bringing new threats of high winds and power outages.
