Los Angeles County is monitoring the forecast of light to moderate rain expected to arrive in the region on Thursday night (11/13/25) and continue through Sunday (11/16/25). The National Weather Service predicts varying rain totals and intensities across the mountains, foothills, valleys, and basin.
Based on the latest forecast, County Public Works has issued a Phase 1 debris flow assessment — the lowest threat level — for first-year burn areas. As a precaution, all first-year burn scar areas across Los Angeles County have been placed under an **Evacuation Warning** due to mudflow vulnerability.
### Evacuation Warnings Issued
Evacuation Warnings will be communicated this afternoon through mass notification systems and in-person alerts by Law Enforcement. Residents in affected areas are advised to have a go bag prepared and be ready to evacuate if necessary.

### Mud and Debris Flow Forecast
Weather forecasters and engineers anticipate the possibility of small, isolated debris and mudflows in recent burn scar areas. Potentially vulnerable locations in the Third District include:
– Palisades
– Hurst
– Kenneth
– Sunset
– Franklin burn areas
Streets in these areas may be flooded or blocked by debris, and a few structures could be endangered. Residents in these zones are urged to stay prepared and ready to evacuate with any forecast of rain.
### County Preparedness Efforts
LA County Public Works crews will mobilize storm patrols to monitor vulnerable communities. They have been actively preparing debris basins, dams, channels, and stormwater capture facilities, which are ready to operate during the rain event.
