#NOAA / #NWS alerting to flooding in !SoCal: portions of #San_Bernardino, #Riverside, #Orange counties with urban and small stream flooding affecting low-lying and poor drainage areas. Water on roadways, mud and rocks over mountain highways. #Inland_Empire people should be alert.

Teams message from work colleague: I hope you and your family were not affected by flooding in $CITY.
I contacted a relative who lives in that part of !SoCal to ask. I knew there were random flooded areas across #San_Bernardino and #Riverside Counties.
Relative: much of the city had flooding Sunday, but not today or yesterday.

#Riverside County sheriff deputies raid elderly couple's homes without a warrant. Reason: solar panels reduced power use, so deputies suspected an illegal marijuana growing operation. https://nu.federati.net/url/287518 [witnessla com]

#NOAA / #NWS has been sending alerts for severe #t-storms with heavy rainfall and flash flooding most of today, covering much of #San_Bernardino County and parts of #Riverside County in !SoCal.
A couple of those alerts covered areas near me. My personal phone got alerted for #flash_floods, but my work phone (which was also with me) did not. This illustrates why people should get NOAA weather alert radios for their homes and other places where they spend a lot of time. (NOTE: Your $EMPLOYER may not allow you to set one up at the workplace.)
The alerts transmitted by mobile carriers are not dependable. In some areas, one carrier will have service and another will not. In other areas, multiple carriers may have service, but only one will alert. In still other areas, multiple carriers will transmit alerts, but there may be a few minutes between carriers.
They used to cost around $40 at Walmart. You have to find out the NOAA alert code for your county and enter it into the radio. Then, when it picks up the code, it will emit a loud beeping noise, then switch on the audio of the nearest NOAA weather radio station ... which should be describing the alert details.
In some places, the county-level alerts are not very helpful. San Bernardino County is one of those places, because the county is the largest in the lower 48 states, and covers an area from Montclair to Needles (multiple hours of driving apart from each other). But in most of the rest of the country, they are very helpful. For example, Wayne County, #MI (Detroit area) is relatively compact, so a weather alert there is likely relevant.

#NOAA / #NWS alerting: life threatening flash floods occuring in #San_Bernardino and #Riverside Counties. Stay off the roads until 17:00 unless evacuating. The rain has dropped the temperature by up to 10F, at the expense of unwanted humidity.

I don't see #Riverside County on the list, but looking at the map, it looks like Blythe is on the edge of the rainfall zone.
If you are travelling across the Mojave Desert in any of these three states, be alert to flooding.

!SoCal #Weather
The Winter storm continues. Snow in the mountains above 5,000 feet. Rain at lower elevations. Up to an inch in High Desert areas, up to half inch in Low Desert areas of #San_Bernardino and #Riverside counties. Minor flooding expected in low lying areas or areas with poor drainage.
And, no, do not expect this to end the drought, unless it continues for months.

!SoCal: Evacuations in parts of #San_Bernardino County due to wildfires. I have not heard yet whether any of neighboring #Riverside County is under evacuation.

#NOAA / #NWS warning about snow that may affect travel in the #SoCal mountains and passes of #San_Bernardino, #Riverside, #Orange counties. Snow level could be 3,000-4,500 feet.
Earlier today, there were flood alerts for the foothills, but I believe those are cancelled now.

I don’t get alerts for #Los_Angeles, #Ventura, or #Santa_Barbara Counties, but the radar forecast on https://nu.federati.net/url/279542 looks like they’re still up for heavy rainfall and flash flooding / urban flooding. Also, mudslides in areas near recent burn scars.
The #Inland_Empire counties ( #San_Bernardino and #Riverside ), where I do get alerts, still have #NOAA / #NWS warnings for both wind and rainfall, watches for flash flooding on the coastal side of the mountains.
If you’re in #SoCal, pay attention to where you’re driving.

Looked at both #SoCal #Inland_Empire counties. It looks like #Riverside County has a little bit more detail to their #COVID-19 vaccination plan than #San_Bernardino County does, but they both seem a little too generic to do much good.
A big part appears to be based on the idea that most people will commute long distances to each county’s central hospital for their shots. Geographically, SBCo is the largest county in the lower 48 states, larger than some entire states, so that is entirely unreasonable. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Bernardino_County,_California
Both counties have tribal reservations within their territory, but Riverside notes that tribal health groups will receive their vaccines directly from the federal government.
I don’t see “take a truck and set it up in the parking lot of the local park as a mobile vaccination center” or “set up temporary centers in CVS and Walgreens drug stores”.

#NOAA / #NWS Winter weather advisory for mountains in #SoCal’s #San_Bernardino and #Riverside counties from 2021-01-19 14:00 PST to 2021-01-20 06:00 PST.
* 2-4 inches of snow above 5500 feet elevation, some locations up to 8 inches; some snow possible down to 3500 feet elevation (which could affect passes)
* Expect restricted visibility and slick roads.
Not included in this advisory, but I’d expect mountain areas in #Los_Angeles and #San_Diego counties to likewise receive snowfall.
