Southern California Storm Causes Flooding and Triggers Flash Flood Warnings
A fast-moving storm swept through Southern California, causing significant flooding on several major freeways, including the 5, 710, and 110. The National Weather Service reported that the storm brought over 1.5 inches of rain to Ojai in Ventura County and nearly three-quarters of an inch to downtown Los Angeles. The storm also triggered a flash flood warning in a local burn scar area. Fierce winds accompanied the rain, with gusts reaching up to 71 mph in the Antelope Valley. The storm moved eastward faster than anticipated, resulting in higher rainfall rates. Despite the heavy rain, no major issues were reported, although some areas experienced minor flooding. Rainfall totals varied across Los Angeles County, with coastal and valley areas receiving between 0.25 to over an inch, and foothills and mountains receiving 1 to 2 inches. Some high-elevation areas also saw snowfall.
