As a winter storm rolls in from the Pacific Northwest, forecasters warn about high winds and possible flooding.
Heavy rain and high winds are expected to wallop parts of Southern California Saturday night and Sunday as a winter storm rolls in from the Pacific Northwest.
“Showers should begin Saturday night, but it looks like the bulk of the rain will fall on Sunday, as a cold front sweeps across the region,” the National Weather Service said. “Rainfall should be most widespread and locally heavy near the time of frontal passage.” The agency posted a flood watch from Saturday night to Sunday afternoon, mainly within the San Gorgonio Pass and around the mountain slopes in the San Bernardino National Forest, where “excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams and other low-lying flood-prone locations.”
A wind advisory is also in effect from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday, with the NWS noting that southwest winds of 15 to 25 mph are anticipated, with gusts to between 50 and 70 mph in some locations. Alert RivCo message sent: Significant rains forecast to impact area. Anyone living in, hiking, cycling, horseback riding, or playing in the Santa Ana river bottom or channels leading to it should move to higher ground now. Heavy rains may result in dangerous water flows
