California declares a state of emergency to face a “dangerous” winter storm. Authorities alert millions of residents in eight counties due to heavy rainfall and violent gusts of wind.

A new storm system entered the State on Saturday, causing heavy rains and winds that have already left 800,000 users without electricity service. This is expected to last several days, which could leave a record amount of precipitation. In the upper parts of the State, atmospheric rivers will also leave a significant amount of snow.
