A flash flood warning was sent across L.A. County through the emergency alert system at about 4 p.m. — but the warning wasmeant for the Fish Fire burn scar area in Duarte, according to the National Weather Service's John Dumas.The mass alert seems to have been a tech issue."There was some problem with our hardware system," Dumas said.
"The box we drew is not the warning that went out."NWS tweeted out map of the area Dumas referred to. The warning is in place until 4:45 p.m.Apologies for the confusion over the Flash Flood Warning . A glitch changed the small box for the area near the Fish Fire burn scar into all of LA County just as it was sent. We cancelled it and sent the correct FFW for the small Fish burn scar as shown in the image.
