At least seven people were injured by a tornado that reached wind speeds of 125 mph in Jackson County, Florida, on Tuesday, according to a NWS Tallahassee report issued Wednesday night.

So far five people are know to have died as a result of winter weather in the last week.

While more is rainfall expected along the East Coast from Friday it is expected to be less than that seen during last week’s storm systems — although 1 to 2 inches of rain is still possible in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions, bringing the chance of flooding.

The number of properties without power has dropped from more than half a million on Wednesday morning to less than 100,000 across the country as of Thursday morning, according to the outage tracking website Poweroutage.us. 

In Western regions and the Rockies, more heavy snow is expected with the heaviest due for the northwestern coast of California and the Oregon Cascades, where “a few feet of snow” is likely on Saturday, the NWS said, as yet another storm makes its way inland.

Warnings for high morning tides and high surf were in place in southern California, NWS Los Angeles said.

“Add in the gusty winds & cold weather, the beach & ocean won’t make for a fun place to be. Be safe & consider staying away,” the weather service said in a post on X Wednesday night.

The LA weather service also urged people to “check on your family, friends, neighbors, pets, and plants” as temperatures drop.

A state of emergency was declared in Ventura, California, where high surf has caused $1.75 million of damage to the city’s historic pier, which remains closed.
