LOS ANGELES (AP) A rare October storm arrived in California on Tuesday and threatened to pummel wildfire-scarred Los Angeles neighborhoods with heavy rain, high winds and possible mudslides. Some homes were ordered to evacuate.
Downpours were moving through the area early Tuesday, with drivers hydroplaning and some accidents reported on flooded roads.
A flash flood warning was in effect for part of Santa Barbara County, where the sheriffs office issued a shelter-in-place order for an area that experienced a wildfire last year and was subject to debris flow.
Rainfall amounts by Tuesday morning ranged from less than half an inch (1.3 centimeters) in Los Angeles County to about 1.5 inches (3.8 centimeters) in San Luis Obispo County, the weather service said.
