While rain is expected to subside in Los Angeles by Monday evening, the risk of flash floods and mudslides remains high in areas affected by recent wildfires. The National Weather Service has issued flood watches for several burn scar regions, warning of intense, localized rainfall. Authorities have taken precautionary measures to protect properties and the environment, including installing barriers and sandbags.
Although rains are expected to subside Sunday evening into Monday, flash-flood and mudslide risks for the wildfire burn scar areas will persist through Monday afternoon, according to the National Weather Service. The rainstorm’s center is expected to move over L.A. County on Monday, creating a risk of intense, localized rainfall throughout the day. Ahead of the storm, the National Weather Service issued flood watches for the Palisades, Eaton, Hughes, Franklin and Bridge fire burn scars.
Sunday and other areas receiving less than a tenth of that, according to the National Weather Service. A National Weather Service station at Eaton Dam, near the Eaton fire burn scar, recorded 0.13 of an inch of rain. A Monte Nido station — in the Santa Monica Mountains near the Palisades fire burn scar — recorded 0.55 of an inch.
