A hurriedly winter storm rushed into Southern California early Thursday, yield in heavy snow, battering rain and tornado warnings, but by mid-morning, the sun had slightly appeared.

A tornado warning was expressed for parts of Santa Barbara County until 10:30 p.m. Wednesday, and was later canceled as the storm depleted in the area.

A second tornado warning was issued for western Orange County around midnight Thursday morning, but was canceled shortly afterward as the storm lessened, leaving behind excessive rainfall.

The worst of the storm has passed, but it probably would remain damp throughout the day. Some areas are going to see a bit of sun, and then an hour later, it’ll cloud up again.

It’s going to be one of those days. Taking into consideration that people in the area are warned to find shelter and that flying debris can cause bruises to walking people, damage to buildings and cars.
