'Powerful' storm on the way for California; more severe weather in the South

Two storms will join forces over the northeastern Pacific Ocean by Sunday night, AccuWeather says, which is set to arrive in the state by Monday night.
"A powerful Pacific storm system will begin to approach the West Coast on Monday. Moisture spreading inland will significantly increase precipitation chances across northern California and the Pacific Northwest," the National Weather Service said.
The weather service added the storm will result in moderate to heavy rainfall along the coast, with heavy snow in the northern coastal ranges of the state and the southern half of the Cascade Mountains.
