The bad weather will continue in 2023, as experts announced winter storm Hudson is about to devastate several states. Warnings have been issued from Utah to Wisconsin, according to The Sun.

“A severe winter storm is looming over the Plains and Upper Midwest. It is likely that in some areas heavy snowfall and significant accumulations of ice occur,” reported the National Weather Service (NWS) on social media.

Residents of Northern California are bracing for another round of powerful storms this week after deluge flooding on New Year’s Eve killed one person, prompted the evacuation of more than 1,000 inmates at a county jail and washed away a section of a levee system that mainly protects rural farmland, the AP said.

In south Sacramento County, crews rushed to repair a 200-foot section of a levee system roughly 34 miles along the Cosumnes River that protects some more than 53 square miles (137.27 square kilometers) of vineyards and mostly cattle ranches, according to the Associated Press.

“The first tornado watch of 2023 has been issued for parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, and Arkansas. 2022 ended with a total of 591 storm and tornado warnings,» the National Weather Service (NWS) said in a recent tweet. Filed Under: Winter Storm Hudson Victims
