Another day of high risk for flash flooding for California

-

The high risk for flash flooding continues Monday for California — after the UCLA area clocked nearly 10 inches of rain and a month’s worth of rain fell in downtown Los Angeles on Sunday. 

About 80% of flood-related damages and 40% of flood-related fatalities occur on days when high-risk warnings for heavy rainfall and flash flooding are issued by the NOAA’s Weather Prediction Center. 

As of Monday morning, torrential rain is drenching Southern California, and flash flooding and debris flows have been reported in the Hollywood Hills area. 

The highest flash flood risk stretches from Los Angeles to Long Beach and inland toward Big Bear Lake. The downpour will continue Tuesday from Los Angeles to San Diego and move into parts of Arizona, and showers will linger into Wednesday.
