Why it matters
Days of rain and heavy surf are hitting Los Angeles County. The county announced that the Kenneth Hahn Hall of Administration, the county's downtown seat of government, is closed to the public and employees on Tuesday, Oct. 13, after flooding impacted multiple floors, suspending in-person public services.
Full report
According to the county's notice, in-person public services from impacted departments are unavailable for the duration of the closure; online services can be accessed at lacounty.gov/closures.
The National Weather Service's Los Angeles/Oxnard office has a beach hazards statement in effect for Malibu and Los Angeles County beaches until 5 p.m. Tuesday: dangerous rip currents and elevated surf are expected, with high tides of 7.1 to 7.3 feet on Monday and Tuesday mornings and possible minor to moderate sea-water flooding around high tide in low-lying beach and harbor areas.
The NWS also issued a flood advisory for Los Angeles County on Monday evening, warning of minor flooding in low-lying and poor-drainage areas and urging drivers not to drive through flooded roads.
The backdrop is this weekend's powerful waves from Post-Tropical Storm Rachel: 13 homes along the Long Beach Peninsula have already been red-tagged, parts of the boardwalk washed away, and the city lifted most evacuation advisories only on Sunday.
