A powerful storm, known as a "bomb cyclone," has caused significant damage in the US Northwest, resulting in two fatalities from falling trees. Over 600,000 homes and businesses lost power due to hurricane-force winds and heavy rainfall. The storm began on Tuesday and has led to school closures and warnings for flash floods and debris flows.
