California threatened by more flash flooding from back-to-back storms: Live

Back-to-back storms are heading for the US west coast, bringing more heavy downpours and raising the risk of flash flooding.

A plume of moisture from the Pacific is set to surge over the region on Saturday, the National Weather Service said.

The downpours will start across southern Oregon and northern California on Friday night before spreading south into central and southern California.

Although conditions are not expected to be as severe as the impacts of an atmospheric, “river in the sky” event which hit the state last week, officials say there is cause for concern.

Many parts of California are already saturated from the heavy rain and there have been hundreds of landslides so far.
