Los Angeles (CNN) -- An overnight storm delivered surprise
snowfall and
windy chaos to Southern California, stranding
more than 100 motorists in the mountains, ripping
boats
from moorings and apparently killing a coastal island
harbor patrolman.
In all, at least two people in California were killed in storm-
related incidents since Tuesday, authorities said
Wednesday.
In the Northern California city of Redding, a woman was
killed in her sleep at 2:15 a.m. Wednesday when a tree fell
on a corner of the house where she, her husband and 3-
year-old daughter were in the same bed, authorities said.
The woman's death was attributed to the windy weather,
and the husband and toddler were also pinned under the
fallen gray pine but were later freed with minor injuries, said
Deputy Fire Chief Gerry Gray in Redding.
