TL;DR Summary

Officials issued an evacuation warning for some Topanga Canyon residents ahead of heavy rainfall expected late Sunday into Monday, with 1 to 2 inches of rain expected to drench the area and the possibility of thunderstorms. No flood watches were in effect for Los Angeles County as of Sunday evening, but a flood watch was issued for San Diego County on Monday. Last January, heavy rainfall caused a mudslide and a tumbling boulder, prompting the closure of a section of Topanga Canyon Boulevard. Residents are encouraged to monitor local weather and gather loved ones, pets, and supplies, with the evacuation warning in effect from 9 p.m. Sunday to 6 a.m. Tuesday.
