Winter storm brings flash flood warnings to Ventura, Orange counties

Written By kolimtiga on Senin, 23 Februari 2015 | 12.56

A cold front sweeping through Southern California on Sunday night is expected to bring mostly light to moderate rainfall, but those living in burn areas and at higher elevations could see treacherous weather conditions.

In the Camarillo Springs burn area in Ventura County, the National Weather Service issued a flash flood warning until at least 9:15 p.m. Sunday, predicting "imminent" floods and possible debris flows. Residents are advised to remain at home.

Farther south in the Santa Ana Mountains, the Silverado Canyon is under a flash flood watch extending through early Monday morning, with debris flows expected on account of heavy rains.

The Colby fire burn area in Glendora and Altadena isn't expected to see flooding or debris flows, but out of caution, Glendora city officials elevated the emergency alert level and advised residents not to put their garbage cans in the street in the event that heavy rains topple them.

Mountains across Southern California -- with the exception of the Santa Monica Mountains -- are expected to see snow at elevations above 6,000 feet, according to the weather service. 

Los Angeles and Ventura counties could see up to 7 inches of snow at high elevations by Monday morning, while Riverside and San Bernardino could see up to a foot of snow.

Drivers at lower elevations aren't immune to hazard. Those passing through the San Gabriel Mountains, especially on Highway 2, could see icy conditions and low visibility.
