A Flood Watch has been issued for Orange County for late Saturday through Monday evening.

Today’s weather might not show it, yet a Flood Watch will be in effect in Orange County by the National Weather Service, from late Saturday night through Monday evening as Tropical Cyclone Hilary makes its way toward Southern California’s coast.

Orange County expecting to see over 2 inches of rainfall late Saturday through Monday, with slightly more in the foothill and mountain areas. Excessive stormwater runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations. Additionally, strong winds are also expected as early as Sunday evening.

OC Public Works crews have been clearing roadsides, storm drains and culverts to minimize potential stormwater impacts to roads, particularly in the unincorporated canyon communities. We will be monitoring conditions during the weekend and ready to respond to storm-related issues as needed to keep roads open.

Please know that conditions could change if a thunderstorm impacts the area and residents should remain vigilant as conditions can change quickly. Mudslides may also be possible in some areas.

Here’s what you can do to prepare for the coming weather conditions:

- Sign up to receive emergency notifications via phone text, calls or emails at www.AlertOC.com

- Visit https://bit.ly/3CovB7r for sandbag information

- Stay out of creeks and riverbeds during rain storms, as they become very dangerous with increasing amounts of water that move very quickly. Just a few inches of moving water can knock you down, and one foot of moving water can sweep your vehicle away.

- Do not walk, swim or drive through flood waters. Turn around, Don’t drown!

- For official weather sources, you can also monitor www.weather.gov/sandiego
