Los Angeles County Public Health Issues Ocean Water Rain Advisory for All County Beaches Through at Least Monday at 8 A.M.
Los Angeles County, California — The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health issued an ocean water-quality rain advisory covering all county beaches after rain fell on Friday, with the advisory in effect until at least Monday at 8 a.m. and subject to extension depending on further rainfall. The department said recent rainfall may have carried bacteria, trash and chemicals into the ocean from nearby city streets.
The department said the risk is especially high near storm drains, creeks and rivers that discharge into the ocean, and urged beachgoers to avoid water contact. Beachgoers were also told to avoid stormwater runoff as it flows onto the sand.
The runoff can also carry partially submerged tree limbs and logs into the ocean, which could cause serious injury, the department warned. Children, the elderly and people who are immunocompromised are at heightened risk if exposed to the runoff while entering the ocean.
Rain advisories typically remain in effect for 72 hours after rainfall ends, the department said. The current advisory may be extended if more rain falls.
Beachgoers can check the latest water quality test results on the county website. Recorded beach conditions are also available through the county beach information hotline at 800-525-5662.
According to the forecast as of Saturday morning, Los Angeles faced a low chance of lingering, isolated showers on Saturday morning before clearing to a mostly dry and mild weekend, with highs around 71 to 73 degrees Fahrenheit.
