Final round of Christmas storm

The third and final round of a Christmas storm arrived overnight with continued rainfall in the morning hours. 

The Brief

    • A second wave of heavy rain is hitting Southern California today, threatening to cause dangerous flooding, mudslides, and rockslides on already saturated ground.
    • Mandatory evacuation orders and flood watches remain in effect for high-risk burn scars across L.A. and Orange counties, with multiple emergency shelters now open.
    • Officials are urging residents to avoid travel as crews respond to record-breaking rainfall that has already closed major freeways and downed power lines.

LOS ANGELES - Another surge of rain is battering Southern California on Friday, with a high potential for flooding, after record rainfall drenched the area on Christmas Eve.

Record-breaking rainfall

What we know:

Forecasters said another 2 to 5 inches of rain are likely to fall in the mountains during the second wave, but other areas should receive less than 2 inches, unless isolated thunderstorms develop with heavy rains.

Gov. Gavin Newsom's office and Los Angeles County both issued emergency proclamations due to the storm, freeing up added resources.

RELATED COVERAGE:

The first wave of a "very dangerous" atmospheric river storm dumped sometimes-torrential rain on the area Wednesday, with double-digit precipitation falling in some mountain areas, freeway flooding and fears of debris flows in recent burn areas, where residents were under evacuation warnings or orders.

The NWS reported that Wednesday's rainfall totals set daily records in several areas, including:

  • 1.88 inches at LAX, breaking the previous record of 1.60 inches set in 1971.
  • 3.42 inches at Hollywood/Burbank Airport, breaking the previous record of 2.29 inches set in 1971.
