Los Angeles braces for rare tornado threat as major storm brings heavy rain, flash flood warnings

Los Angeles is bracing for a major storm that could bring heavy rain, flash flooding, powerful wind gusts and a rare tornado threat to Southern California from Wednesday afternoon through Thursday.

A strong low-pressure system moving south from the Pacific Northwest is expected to bring widespread rainfall across the region, including Los Angeles, Ventura County and coastal communities. Most areas could receive between 0.5 and 1.5 inches of rain, while some locations near the Santa Ynez and Santa Monica Mountains could see totals of up to 3 inches, as per a report of CBS News.
