Evacuation warnings lifted for Yucaipa, San Bernardino communities
Evacuation warnings were in place for San Bernardino and Riverside County communities in the Southland on Saturday due to heavy rainfall and the potential for flooding.
Residents in Oak Glen, Forest Falls, Mountain Home Village, Angelus Oaks, and northeast Yucaipa have been put on notice due to the rainfall that is expected to fall on Saturday.
However now that the storm system has passed through the Southland, evacuation warnings were lifted for Oak Glen, Forest Falls, Mountain Home Village, Angelus Oaks, and Northeast Yucaipa.
These communities considered burn scar areas where there is a high risk for mud and debris flows.
CBSLA Meteorologist Alex Biston reports that a low pressure system will pass through the Southland on Saturday.
Therefore residents of the mountain communities should be on alert if the evacuation warnings are changed into mandatory evacuations.
Additionally, a flash flood warning has been issued by the National Weather Service for Riverside County until 5:30 p.m. on Saturday.
