Risk rises for #mudslides around #LACounty fire zones; prepare for worst-case scenario, officials warn
Alene Tchekmedyian, Rong-Gong Lin II, Melody Gutierrez, LA Times
January 26, 2025"With more rain on the way, officials warned Sunday of an increasing risk of mudslides in #LosAngelesCounty's burn areas, with a 10% to 20% chance of significant #FlashFlooding and #DebrisFlows capable of damaging roads and homes in and around areas devastated by #wildfires.
"'This is the worst-case scenario to prepare for,' said Kristan Lund, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Oxnard.
"'We do have increasing concern for the #BurnScars,' Lund said. The charred footprint of the Eaton fire, which blackened more than 14,000 acres, is the most worrisome. 'These #FlashFloods and these debris flows could happen in and near or below these burn scars.'
"A #FloodWatch took effect at 10 a.m. Sunday and was set to continue through 4 p.m. Monday for the burned areas of the #EatonFire in the #Altadena and #Pasadena areas; the #PalisadesFire and #FranklinFires in the Pacific Palisades and Malibu areas; the Hughes fire around Lake Castaic; and the Bridge fire in the San Gabriel Mountains west and southwest of Wrightwood. The flood watch started six hours earlier than originally anticipated as rain began falling steadily around Los Angeles."

#TropicalStormSara to unleash life-threatening #flooding in #CentralAmerica
Tropical Storm Sara will bring an extreme risk to lives and property in Central America where feet of rain may fall before tracking toward #Florida next week.
By Alex Sosnowski, AccuWeather senior meteorologist
Published Nov 14, 2024
"Rain may pour down for days on the northern parts of #Nicaragua and #Honduras before shifting to eastern parts of #Guatemala, #Belize and southeastern #Mexico this weekend.
"A general 8-12 inches (20-30 cm) will fall in this zone, but a large pocket of 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) of rain is forecast from northern Honduras and Nicaragua, with an AccuWeather Local StormMax™ of 50 inches (127 cm).
"'This amount of rain will trigger major #FlashFlooding and #mudslides with the potential for catastrophic loss of life and tremendous damage,' AccuWeather Chief Meteorologist Jonathan Porter warned.
"Some communities could be cut off for days due to washed-out roads and bridges or blocked by debris flows. Demands for rescue and recovery efforts, as well as food and medical supplies, will be great in the wake of the storm in the region.
"Because of Sara's proximity to the #Caribbean for several days, it will likely not unwind fully. As a result, winds, waves and #StormSurge will blast the coast of #Honduras, eastern #Guatemala, #Belize and Mexico's #Yucatan Peninsula. Sporadic #PowerOutages are likely due to #StrongWinds."

@maiakbc It's a good point about #MudSlides. I agree and yet I think one thing we have to get used to doing is solving big problems even if it creates smaller problems we have to also solve.
We aren't guaranteed that the best way out of the #ClimateCrisis has no complications. We aren't even guaranteed there is a way out. It's going to be a bumpy ride.
In this case, that's why I tagged #xeriscaping. This is something people in the southwest have some experience with, so I'm going to trust they'll do what they can to be thoughtful. Maybe some expert on that issue will chime in here. (hint, hint)
But, either way, clearly there is no way to justify the continuation of water use just for aesthetics if we are likely to run short of it for essentials. If that means people have to sometimes plant something else, or even have to move to be out of the paths of potential mud slides, that's probably better than others suffering without water.
