A powerful "bomb cyclone" struck the northwest U.S. on Tuesday, resulting in one death and widespread power outages. Over 600,000 homes in Washington lost electricity, with additional outages reported in Oregon and California. The storm brought hurricane-force winds and heavy rain, causing significant damage. A falling tree in Lynnwood, Washington, killed a woman at a homeless encampment. In Seattle, another tree fell on a vehicle, trapping an occupant briefly. Flood and high wind warnings are in effect as the storm moves south. Northern California could see up to eight inches of rain, while the Sierra Nevada may receive up to 15 inches of snow. The Pacific Northwest remains on high alert for ongoing severe weather.
