El Niño Prep: County Readies for Big Storms | California News
Description
L.A. County braces for a potentially historic El Niño this winter, with forecasters predicting a 90% chance of a strong storm season bringing heavy rain and dangerous waves. Emergency teams are running a major drill on September 13th to test readiness, while crews already inspecting drains and flood control systems ahead of October 15th. Fire-burned zones like Eaton and Palisades are especially at risk for mudslides — residents there are urged to report any signs of instability. Flood insurance, roof checks, and drain maintenance are key prep steps for all homeowners, and special attention is being paid to shelters for unhoused individuals. With rainfall timing still uncertain, officials are focused on being as prepared as possible for whatever comes.
