From lightning and hail to dangerous flooding, SoCal Easter weekend storm has impacted neighborhoods all across the region, and a long stretch of Topanga Canyon remains closed.
Though the conditions were mostly dry on Sunday, a pool of rain still sits at the bottom of the hill.From lightning and hail to dangerous flooding, Southern California's Easter weekend storm has impacted neighborhoods all across the region, and a long stretch of Topanga Canyon remains closed.The ongoing closure, between Pacific Coast Highway and the neighborhood of Fernwood, began March 9 in the aftermath of a massive landslide that blocked the entire roadway.
Though the conditions were mostly dry on Sunday, a pool of rain still sits at the bottom of the hill. Residents can walk and even ride their bikes along Topanga Canyon but no vehicles are allowed through."Obviously, I can't go towards Malibu," said resident Olivia Corbett. "I used to catch the beach bus. I'd go into Santa Monica or Topanga mall, and now that's not going, so it's a lot of catching Ubers and getting deliveries.
Crews monitored activity during the weekend. Caltrans urges people to seek alternative routes, preferably the 101 Freeway.Forecasters said the rain would move on by Monday, though daytime temperatures will remain well below normal, with most highs in the 50s and low 60s. A high pressure system will move temperatures substantially higher Tuesday and Wednesday, into the mid-70s in some areas. Gusty northwest winds and cooler conditions will increase the chances of another round of light rain by the end of the week.Copyright © 2024 KABC Television, LLC. All rights reserved.
