After weeks of dry conditions exacerbated by Santa Ana winds, Southern California is set to receive light to moderate rain from an approaching cold storm. This much-needed precipitation will aid fires and rejuvenate dry vegetation, yet poses risks of flash floods and mudslides, particularly in areas impacted by recent wildfires. The National Weather Service has issued a flood watch, particularly for regions like Hughes, Bridge, and the central area affected by the Eaton fire. Residents are advised to prepare for possible emergencies during the watch period.
