"A lifeguard spotted the waterspout about 100 yards off the Huntington
Beach pier.
Another tornado, first spotted in the northern San Diego County town of
Fallbrook, moved into Temecula, where it ripped up shrubs, blew over fences
and tore tiles from roofs.
A third waterspout came ashore in Long Beach, but only stirred up a
sandstorm before disintegrating."

"Californians braced for even more rain Tuesday as they struggled to
recover from storms that have left at least nine people dead, triggered
mudslides and tornadoes, and washed away roads and runways.
In Ventura County, officials closed the small Santa Paula airport Tuesday
after more than 155 feet of runway collapsed into the rushing Santa Clara
River. Chunks of concrete crumbled into the water throughout the day.
"We've lost nearly the entire west third of the airport," said Rowena
Mason, president of the Santa Paula Airport Association. "This is millions
and millions of dollars worth of damage."
Forecasters said another strong system expected early Wednesday could bring
severe winds and drop an additional inch or more of rain on Southern
California."

"Los Angeles -- at least this winter -- which is headed for its
second-rainiest season since 1877, when the National Weather Service began
keeping records.
Rainfall as of Monday afternoon totaled 32.03 inches downtown, more than
three times the normal through the date of 9.89 inches and bearing down on
the annual record of 38.18 inches set in 1883-84.
At Mammoth Mountain in the Eastern Sierra, for example, where snowpack
generally is measured in feet, this latest storm dropped 26 inches of new
snow. But Mountain High ski resort in the San Gabriel Mountains got 4 feet
to 8 feet of snowfall.
"We started out with 3 to 5 feet and we had 4 to 8 feet on top of that,"
Mountain High spokesman John McColly said Monday, as snow continued to fall."
