An evacuation order has been issued for the community of Lytle Creek amid an intense storm hitting Southern California. The San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department asks residents in the evacuation zone to “gather essential belongings, secure your property if time permits, and evacuate without delay.”
“Avoid flooded roads and areas impacted by debris. Stay informed through official channels and follow all directions from public safety officials,” the sheriff’s department said.
Road closures are in place at Trabuco Canyon Road at Rose Canyon, Plano Trabuco near Robinson Ranch, Grey Rock at Bell Canyon, and Hot Springs Canyon at Ortega Highway.
If you live in Orange County and are affected, there’s a reception center for displaced residents at the Foothill Ranch Library Program Annex adjacent to the library at 27002 Cabriole Way. Meantime, the OC Animal Care shelter at 1630 Victory Road in Tustin will be available to care for evacuated residents’ small pets.
