The National Weather Service is predicting “increasingly unstable” atmospheric conditions later Sunday afternoon and are warning of possible showers and thunderstorms.
While the winds in the mid and upper levels of the atmosphere will be rather strong, there is a high likelihood of training thunderstorms with very heavy downpours.
“This will result in the potential for flash flooding, especially in the mountains, the Antelope Valley, the Cuyama Valley, and in recent burn areas such as the Alamo, Whittier, La Tuna, Sand and Fish burn areas,” according to the National Weather Service Flood Watch.
“Rainfall rates over 1 inch per hour are possible with thunderstorms,” the warning stated.
The National Weather Service provided a set of instructions for what to do during a flood watch.
“A flash flood watch means that conditions may develop that lead to flash flooding. Flash flooding is a very dangerous situation,” according to the National Weather Service. “Southern California residents in or below the recently burned areas are urged to take the steps necessary to protect their property.”
Any persons in the area are strongly encouraged to remain vigilant for updates from emergency preparedness officials.
