Heavy rainfall and thunderstorms over the Southern California region caused flooding and dangerous conditions on Friday.
The National Weather Service said a double-barreled low-pressure system is over the region. Rainfall rates across the southern part of Los Angeles and Orange counties are approaching an inch per hour.
A CBS LA Next Weather Alert will remain in effect through the rest of the day for widespread rain and the potential for dangerous driving conditions. The alert is meant to warn communities about a weather event that may disrupt daily routines.
An NWS flash flood warning is in effect for parts of Southern California, including the Palisades Fire burn scar area, until 7 a.m. The NWS said the Doppler radar indicated thunderstorms and heavy rain. They expect the rainfall rate to be between .15 and .25 inches in 30 minutes.

Fires to follow
And nearly none of this fresh rain water will be stored but instead will all flow to the ocean.
I’m in Newport Beach at the moment and there was no heavy rain or rain at all on Friday. There was the day before.
I just mention this as an illustration of how worthless news is, especially television ‘news’.
It’s news when it rain in California. LOL
(I live in Seattle). :-)
Looks like cali may be eligible for some un climate money.
Run for the hills! We’re all going to DIE!
It pours, man it pours!
Reminds me of the old Bob Hope-Jackie Gleason movie How to Commit Marriage(1969) in which mud flows in California are shown and mentioned.
And land slides in about 2 months after the rain peculates down into the mountains.
What, no Weather Channel hosts clinging to street signs?
“What, no Weather Channel hosts clinging to street signs?”
LOL
Are LA people able to get to all that new beach made accessible by the fires?
The wealthy had it effectively closed off for decades. They even tried putting gates and locks on the few access paths.
I haven't seen the movie, but in 1969, we got a tremendous amount of rain that caused flooding and a lot of mudslides.
And the gals were not happy about it!
Sounds like the weather 60 years ago when I was growing up in the San Gabriel Valley of So Cal.
Too bad they couldn’t save some of the water somehow.
until saw the pic I was expecting a somewhat different Cali “drag show”
