Southern California experienced a powerful storm, leading to evacuation warnings due to heavy rainfall and threats of mudslides. Officials warned of flood and thunderstorm conditions with up to 4 inches of rain expected in valleys and damaging wind gusts. Areas near burn scars are particularly susceptible to significant flooding and debris flows, posing risks to roadways and structures. Emergency services reported incidents such as rescues from water entrapment while meteorologists warned of intense weather patterns that could lead to hazardous conditions across the region.
"The most likely outcome is that we're going to see shallow to minor debris flows, minor flooding and some amount of ponding and flooding on roadways," Schoenfeld said.
"This could include impacts such as roads being covered by mud or water, cars stuck in mud or water, and some amount of structures threatened in burn scars," Schoenfeld said.
