Weather Advisories
Flood Watch
As rain continued to fall on already-drenched Southern California, a greater portion of the area remained under a Flood Watch through 10 a.m. Wednesday. This affected Orange, Ventura, Los Angeles, San Bernardino, and Riverside counties in the inland and coastal areas, as well as in the mountains.
Flash Flood Warning
Some Los Angeles County residents received a Flash Flood Warning alert on their phones Tuesday night. The National Weather Service reported the Doppler radar indicated moderate to heavy rain showers across the county including Long Beach, eastern Malibu, Culver City, downtown LA, Rancho Palos Verdes, Hollywood, Alhambra, Redondo Beach, Torrance, Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach, and Inglewood.
Heavy rain was also reported in parts of the Pomona Valley and Inland Empire on Wednesday morning.
Winter Weather Advisory
The NWS issued a Winter Weather Advisory through 10 a.m. warning of wet snow, additional snow accumulation between 1 and 3 inches, and potential wind gusts up to 40 mph.
Closures
The overnight rains caused mud and rock slides that disrupted travel in the Malibu area. Pacific Coast Highway was closed in both directions between Latigo Canyon and Corral Canyon roads due to mud on the roadway, according to Caltrans.

The Sepulveda Basin -- between Burbank and Victory boulevards and Havenhurst and Woodley avenues -- remained closed due to flooding. Mulholland Drive remained closed between Skyline Drive and Bowmont Drive due to severe road damage at four locations that occurred during earlier rains. That closure was expected to last weeks, officials said.
