The National Weather Service has issued a Flood Watch through 8 p.m. for Los Angeles, Ventura and much of Santa Barbara counties. Additional rainfall of 0.50 to 1 inch is expected through tonight, with isolated heavier showers or thunderstorms capable of producing brief downpours, localized flooding and shallow debris flows, especially near recent burn scars.
Forecasters say isolated thunderstorms remain possible through early evening, with a 15–20% chance today and the potential for gusty winds and small hail. Rockslides and mudslides remain possible, particularly along canyon roads.
Showers are expected to continue into Sunday night, with many areas receiving an additional 0.50 to 1 inch of rain.
Officials advise residents to avoid flooded roads, limit travel during the heaviest downpours, prepare for delays and follow instructions from local law enforcement as conditions worsen.
