Aerial photos show California's devastating flooding. California has been experiencing extreme weather, including a "relentless parade of atmospheric rivers" -- storms that are long plumes of moisture stretching out into the Pacific capable of dropping staggering amounts of rain and snow. With the rolling series of storms have come powerful winds and high surfs. The storms have caused mass evacuations, along with widespread power outages, downed trees and difficult driving conditions.
