LOS ANGELES — At least one person was killed as a wet and windy storm arrived in California on Tuesday, delivering more rain, snow and hazards to residents of the Golden State on the second day of spring.
The person, who has not been identified, was killed when a tree fell onto a vehicle on Alpine Road in Portola Valley, according to the California Highway Patrol.
The death was reported as the low-pressure system rocked the Central Coast, where widespread rain and damaging wind gusts also snarled traffic, knocked glass out of skyscrapers and left tens of thousands without power.
