Weathering #LARain: A Resource Guide
Storm season is here. Residents living in recent burn areas should monitor this page for updates regarding any evacuations, road closures or media releases. All residents should heed any and all emergency notifications. The potential for falling rocks and mud and debris flow exists and residents should maintain good situation awareness. Many canyon and local roads will be slippery and all motorists are urged to drive cautiously and slow down. Do not attempt to cross flooded areas and never enter moving water.

As we close out #RRSAW2021, we hope you will remember that having a safe (road) system, where everyone gets home safely, is a shared responsibility. Will you do your part as we Live, Work and Explore along the #RuralRoadtoZero? Lives depend on it! #RuralRoadSafety
For our last day of #RRSAW we’ll be discussing Post-Crash Care. When a person is injured in a crash, they rely on emergency responders. But first responders rely on us too! When you see lights, vests, and reflectors...slow down and move over to keep our emergency responders safe.
Coming up, more monsoonal moisture will bring a chance of showers for our area. We could see some sprinkles by late Sat night, with more significant showers Sun night-Mon. Keep an eye on the forecast and plan accordingly! #socal #CArain #CAwx
