The winds also led to the closure of Yosemite National Park.
Caltrans blocked Highway 41 on the way to Yosemite because windy conditions made it too dangerous even if crews could ve cleaned up all the trees already knocked over.
The park is expected to remain closed until Friday morning.
Yosemite will likely remain closed until Friday morning as the park conducts damage assessments, repairs facilities, and clears trees. While some facilities have been damaged, no injuries have been reported as a result of the high winds in the park.
