FACTS: Golden State/1st in population/moto "Eureka"/Capital Sacramento MyStateCALIFORNIA - We R Hiring! NOW -JOBS LOS ANGELES (AP) -- As the first of a series of back-to-back winter storms arrived in Southern California on Sunday, residents in communities below wildfire-scarred mountains were on high alert for mudslides and flash floods. Showers were expected to increase in intensity during the night, with 3 to 6 inches of rain expected through Monday, according to the National Weather Service. In preparation for possible mudslides, crews have handed out 30,000 sandbags and built 10,000 feet of concrete barriers in foothill communities near burn areas, said Bob Spencer, spokesman for the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works. "We're doing all we can to keep the mud and debris on the street and away from properties," Spencer said. Several dozen homeowners in deep canyon areas have been warned to leave if the rains arrive as expected, and more widespread evacuations are possible, he said. Forecasters said storms lasting through at least Friday could drop 20 inches of rain inland and 8 inches along the coasts and in the valleys of Southern California. Wet weather was expected in most of the state this week, with up to 10 inches of rain predicted for the San Francisco Bay area. "If it progresses as anticipated, at the end, we will probably have to go back 10 years or more to find a system of equal rainfall and intensity," NWS forecaster Bob Benjamin said. Snow could fall in the Sierra foothills as low as 3,000 feet, boosting a depleted snowpack but making travel hazardous. The U.S. Coast Guard urged boaters and swimmers to avoid taking to the water over the next several days, as forecasters predicted ocean swells could reach 25 feet. Boaters were being encouraged to check their mooring and anchor lines to prevent their vessels from coming loose during the storms. If it is necessary to travel offshore, the Coast Guard said mariners should check their safety equipment and leave a "float plan" with a friend or family member.
