LAFD has info and maps for the various #Evacuation warnings they've issued for the coming rains and #DebrisFlow risks.

They've sent deputies into the field because while there are warnings for general areas, specific addresses will have mandatory evacuation orders. This is pretty smart really, and deputies can inform non-ordered addresses of risks, so educational.

Due to the forecasted high rains which have the potential to trigger mudslides and debris flows on March 12-13, the City of Los Angeles is issuing EVACUATION WARNINGS for several areas and limited, address specific Evacuation Orders which will go into effect from 7AM Wednesday (3/12/2025) to 6pm Thursday (3/13/2025)

Info on #DebrisFlow cameras. Snipped from FB. #AtmosphericRiver #CAwx

"Update: all seven new cameras are now online
With a major atmospheric river projected to hit Southern California this week, ALERTCalifornia's field team has been working hard to install seven new cameras around Los Angeles to help emergency managers monitor potential debris flows from the Eaton and Palisades burn scars. The Bailey Canyon 1 & 2, Sierra Madre Canyon 1 & 2, and Sierra Madre Bridge cameras are already online for the the Eaton Fire scar. Cloudcroft 1 & 2 cameras will be online soon for the Palisades Fire scar. Search camera names at cameras.alertcalifornia.org to see their locations."

When this map opens it is centered on the #EatonFire area and shows the drainage ways with a black dot at the low end of each one. The map also shows the weather radar with yellow areas indicating heavier rain than green areas.

There is concern that heavy rains may cause #DebrisFlow

You can drag the map over to the area of the #PalisadesFire and see the same thing.

The colors on this map always show an estimate from NOAA of the rainfall expected over the next 5 days. As is typical, south facing slopes are expected to receive increased rain.

The map also shows pink shading for recent fire perimeters including for the #EatonFire and #PalisadesFire where there is at least some #DebrisFlow risk.

Butte County:

What about Flood Insurance?
Butter County California

"Due to the recent fires, many areas of Butte County will be more susceptible to flooding and debris flows as we move into the rainy season. Did you know that homeowners insurance does not typically cover damage caused by flooding and debris flows? Flood insurance is available, but it’s important to know that it takes 30 days after payment of premium for a flood insurance policy to go into effect. If you are considering purchasing a flood insurance policy, don’t wait for rain to be in the forecast! "
