Los Angeles, CA – The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is urging residents to remain cautious as more rain is forecast to hit the region later this week. Although the recent storm has passed, officials warn that road and hillside conditions remain hazardous.

According to the Sheriff’s Department, wet roads will stay slick for several days, and additional rainfall could worsen conditions. Drivers are being advised to slow down, avoid standing water, and never go around barricades or closed roads.

Authorities also caution residents to stay alert near hillsides where mud or debris flows may occur, particularly in areas previously affected by heavy rain. Fallen branches, palm fronds, and rocks could also pose dangers along roadways.

Officials recommend signing up for emergency updates through ready.lacounty.gov or the Ready L.A. County alert system.

Residents are reminded to stay vigilant and plan extra travel time, especially during early morning and evening commutes when roads are most congested.

Stay safe out there, Los Angeles County.
