I was born and raised in LA, and with that, comes an acute familiarity with a certain slice of baked goodness — the LAUSD coffee cake. This is truly a nostalgic ode to a confectionary slice of heaven a select few know about. My latest for @KCRW: kcrw.com/news/shows/greater-…

Confidence is growing for Sat, as guidance trends rainfall totals higher with significant impacts possible for SB, Ventura & LA Co. Stay tuned to the forecast, Saturday would be a great day to plan indoor activities & avoid traveling if possible to stay safe. #socal #cawx #carain
ALT A front followed by a low are bringing rain to the region into the weekend. Will likely see a good break in the rain for San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara Counties, around Friday. Increasing confidence in more significant rain for Saturday, with low confidence on which county (between Santa Barbara, Ventura, and LA Counties) will be impacted the most. Which county will see the greatest impacts depends on where the low pressure system tracks. There is a growing risk for significant impacts Saturday, including dangerous flooding, damaging debris flows and major road closures. Monitor the forecast for updates and follow advice from local law officials.

Showers quickly developing from Santa Monica to San Fernando. Conditions can rapidly deteriorate. If you hear thunder or see lightning, seek shelter until the storm passed. Be prepared for gusty winds. #cawx

A Tsunami Advisory has been issued, replacing the Tsunami Watch. The tsunami should arrive near 1AM tonight. If you are located in the coastal area, move off the beach & out of harbors & marinas. Do not go to the coast to watch. Be alert to instructions from local EM officials.

I issued a curfew starting tonight at 8pm for Downtown Los Angeles to stop bad actors who are taking advantage of the President's chaotic escalation.
If you do not live or work in Downtown L.A., avoid the area.
Law enforcement will arrest individuals who break the curfew, and you will be prosecuted.
