Numerous roads were covered with mud and closed, one bridge was washed out, a broken levee flooded a neighborhood, and three swift water rescues were performed.

The wider storm

A series of storms fueled by a tropical moisture tap pounded the Mojave Desert and southern Great Basin for several days. Extremely heavy snow and widespread flooding resulted.
