Storm creates mudslides
LOS ANGELES -- A powerful storm battered Southern California yesterday with winds of up to 60 mph and heavy rain, causing power outages and mudslides.
Meteorologists predicted unstable, wet weather through next week -- with rain possible for the Rose Parade on New Year's Day. It hasn't rained on the Rose Parade since 1955.
Police said the storm might have contributed to the death of a young man who apparently tried to surf in 10- to 12-foot waves. Residents were ordered to evacuate about 50 homes in one section of the San Bernardino County town of Devore.

Building explosion kills two
RAMSEY -- An explosion flattened a commercial building yesterday, killing at least two persons and critically injuring a third. A fourth person was missing.
A small flame was visible in the ruins, suggesting a gas-line break. But sheriff's Capt. Robert Aldrich said the cause of the midmorning blast was not known. The building housed a real-estate business and bank offices.
