With a storm bringing a risk of mudslides and debris flows, some areas of Los Angeles recently burned by wildfires will face evacuation warnings this week as the region braces for heavy rain and possible flooding.

Evacuation warnings have been issued for parts of Los Angeles County, near burn scar areas due to high mudslide and debris flow risks.

The Los Angeles Fire Department issued evacuation warnings on Tuesday for residents living in the areas of the city savaged by recent wildfires ahead of heavy rain and mudslides expected later this week.

A strong storm system is expected to “blast through” Los Angeles and Orange County tonight, bringing a heavy dose of rain over a short period of time and prompting evacuation orders, flood warnings and road closures.
