Areas charred by last month's wildfires in Southern California now face a new threat from a powerful, but fast-moving Pacific storm. Here's what you need to know about this threat.

A new rain storm is bearing down on California, including fire-ravaged Los Angeles, where residents are bracing for the possibility of mudslides and landslides.

For the second time this year, Southern Californians are evacuating their homes as heavy rain threatens new destruction in places still recovering from last month’s devastating wildfires.

With heavy rain bringing the risk of dangerous debris flows, the Los Angeles Fire Department has announced evacuation warnings — and mandatory evacuation orders for some specific addresses — in areas recently burned by wildfires.

Crews have rushed to clear out basins designed to catch mud, rocks and other debris from tumbling into neighborhoods as damaging rains approach.
