As Storm Approaches, New Evacuation Orders and Warnings Go Into Effect
LOS ANGELES - The city is currently under EVACUATION ORDERS for specific addresses and EVACUATION WARNINGS for several areas. Due to the heavy storm inbound from the northwest, the risk for mudslides and debris flows is very high. Recently burned areas are especially susceptible to runoff, as ash coverage creates a layer over the ground that is unpredictable in its response to rainfall.

Evacuation orders and warnings take effect on 7am on Thursday, February 13, 2025.

While the above map displays the affected areas, residents are encouraged to inspect maps labeled "PHASE 2" at the bottom of this page, in order to better understand debris flow risk and predictions.
Residents are also encouraged to create an account with the County of Los Angeles Department of Public Works e-Notify system and sign up to receive email/text message alerts for up-to-date mudflow forecasts.
Additionally, residents may employ the Genasys Project Map to search and locate their address within pre-demarcated zones, used for issuing evacuations and other emergency alerts.
As always, lafd.org/alerts will have the latest information and alerts on any situation that can potentially impact residents. LAFD encourages all residents to stay informed, stay prepared, and stay safe.
