ORANGE COUNTY (KNX) - A high surf advisory will be in effect for the coastal parts of Orange County through the weekend, according to the National Weather Service as a powerful winter storm sweeps through Southern California.
A high surf advisory means breaking wave action could pose a threat to people or property within the surf zone. The advisory is in effect until 10 p.m. Sunday.
A flood watch will be in effect in Orange County coastal and inland areas Saturday evening through late Saturday night.
Rain is expected across Southern California, leading to declarations by local politicians to be prepared.
In Los Angeles, Mayor Karen Bass declared a state of local emergency Friday, as the city recovers from a series of strong storms and prepares for more rain and wind in the coming days.
Additional rain is bad news for crews that are still working to clean up after this week's storms across the Southland. A number of highway closures were still in place Friday due to mudslides or other damage, and a sinkhole that developed on a Calabasas roadway and swallowed two vehicles continued growing in size.
