Rain in South California; helps with wildfire control, raises other issues

[NPR] As much needed rain falls across Los Angeles and Ventura Counties and gives firefighters relief from ongoing wildfires, officials are warning residents of hazardous waste, toxic ash runoff and mudslides.

The National Weather Service has issued a flood watch beginning at 4:00 p.m. PDT on Sunday through 4:00 p.m. PDT Monday that includes areas scorched by the fires known as "burn scars."

Firefighters have made progress on the fires, with the Palisade Fire 87% contained, the Eaton Fire 95% contained and the Hughes Fire, which broke out on Wednesday morning, 92% contained.

#6 Bass was losing the election until 3am. Obama flew to LA to endorse the Bass election results. Now you know why everything else, including why she couldn't dismiss the fire chief, her corruption is such an open secret. Like someone here at Rantburg said, she knows where the bodies are.
