Heavy snowfall over the weekend in the Sierra Nevada Mountains and northern Plains caused multiple water rescues, road closures, and power outages, resulting in the deaths of at least two people. In Sacramento County, emergency crews responded to fallen trees and disabled vehicles in the flood waters, while US Highway 101 was closed in South San Francisco due to flooding and high tides. More wet weather is expected in the West this week from storms brewing in the Gulf of Alaska.

The Federal Election Commission records show suspicious expenditures, and the Eastern District of New York and Nassau County District Attorney are probing his finances and inconsistencies in his résumé. Santos has admitted to fabricating and "embellishing" several claims about his background, and his campaign donors have expressed shock and betrayal. The outcome of these investigations remains to be seen.
