The Emergency Operations Center is activated to a Level 2 to monitor the impacts and coordinate the resources needed to respond to the new storm system moving into Los Angeles. A Level 2 activation is a strongly enhanced level of operation in which every necessary agency staffs the Emergency Operations Center around the clock. Emergency crews continue to respond to the effects of the storm and potential mud and debris flows, power outages, and roadway obstructions.
The next update is expected Tuesday around 6:00 PM via a paper release.
Over the past week, the City has worked to repair more than 4,000 potholes, reinforce hills that are at risk of mudslides and prevent power outages by making repairs to underground equipment and vaults that had flooded during the previous storm.
The National Weather Service reports the potential for continued moderate to heavy rain today, Tuesday, February 20, and gusty winds continuing into tomorrow morning, Wednesday, February 21, with possibility for thunderstorms.
