A citywide Red Flag alert was issued for Sunday with temporary street parking restrictions due to the first significant Santa Ana wind event of the season.
The alert took effect at 8 a.m. Sunday for at least 24 hours due to concerns over possible brush fires and wind-related power outages due to the high winds, bringing dry and gusty conditions. Authorities said cars parked illegally in posted areas flagged as 'Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone' will be towed.
'The strongest Santa Ana winds are expected Sunday, when gusts of 35 to 50 mph will be common, except gusts of 50 to 65 mph likely in the Los Angeles county mountains, Santa Susana mountains, western Santa Monicas, and wind-prone foothills. Dry and breezy offshore flow conditions will persist into Tuesday which may extend critical fire weather conditions across portions of Los Angeles and Ventura counties,' the National Weather Service said.
