Current Rainfall & Flooding Risk in Fire-Scarred Areas 

January 27, 2025 – Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department officials announce heavy rain is currently affecting our region, and we urge everyone—especially those in recently burned areas—to stay vigilant. The recent fires have left the soil unstable, increasing the risk of mudslides, flash floods, and debris flows.

What to do now:

• Avoid flooded areas: Do not attempt to drive or walk through floodwaters
• Stay away from slopes: Areas burned by wildfires are especially vulnerable to mudslides
• Monitor conditions: Stay updated with local weather alerts and warnings
• Stay indoors when possible until conditions improve

Your safety is our priority. Please remain cautious and take the necessary precautions.
