A powerful storm off the coast of California is bringing heavy rain and posing a high risk of potentially deadly flooding to Los Angeles County. The storm has caused flooding, mudslides, and power outages, with life-threatening flash flooding expected in areas near the LA County border and the Santa Monica Mountains. Multiple days of rainfall have led to a moderate to high risk of flooding, with hazardous winds and seas occurring along most of the coast. The Weather Prediction Center has upgraded portions of the southern California Coast to a high risk for excessive rainfall, with widespread, life-threatening flash flooding expected. The storm has prompted flood advisories for various counties, including southern Santa Barbara, west Central Ventura, central and western LA, northern Ventura, and northern LA County. The Hollywood Hills and the Santa Monica Mountains face life-threatening landslides and flash flooding, with 5-9 inches of rain fallen and additional flash flooding expected. The storm has led to power outages from high winds and is considered one of the most dramatic weather days in recent memory. Residents are urged to sign up for local emergency alerts to stay safe.
