Monday’s storm was preceded by a wind event called the Palmdale Mountain Wave in Lancaster and the surrounding areas that brought sustained winds of 50 mph with gusts up to 70 mph, said Kristen Stewart, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service. The high winds, which felled several trees overnight, are expected to weaken later in the morning.
