Malibu agencies outline storm preparations

At Oct. 27 El Niño workshop, officials discuss evacuations, utility protection and debris-flow risks, while Big Rock neighbors seek guidance for homes and vacant lots. For Malibu residents still recovering from wildfire and confronting erosion along the coast, preparing for winter means more than cleaning gutters and stacking sandbags. It means knowing whether a hillside above a burned property could send mud downhill, whether a neighborhood’s only access road will remain open, and whether the utilities that power a backup generator will keep working. Those concerns shaped the City of Malibu’s Oct. 27 El Niño panel discussion, where representatives of the Los Angeles County Fire Department, Sheriff’s Department, and Public Works Department joined Southern California Edison and SoCalGas to explain their preparations and answer residents’ questions.

The sea wall along the Long Beach Peninsula and several homes have been affected by rising tides and swells caused by a surging Kelvin wave and an El Niño. In early October, the effects of an El Niño pattern along the West Coast, and its growing movement of warm water toward Southern California, could put pressure on marine ecosystems adapted to colder ocean conditions, endangering marine life.

Santa Monica Declares Emergency Ahead of Potentially Historic El Niño

SANTA MONICA - Santa Monica has declared a local emergency ahead of winter, giving officials greater flexibility to buy storm supplies as forecasters warn El Niño could become the strongest recorded since 1950. The council adopted the declaration Oct. 27 as part of preparations for the 2026-27 winter season. Along the coast, city officials are preparing for beach erosion and unstable bluffs that could send mud and debris onto Pacific Coast Highway. Heavy rain could also overwhelm drainage systems and cause flooding.The city's preparations include cleaning more than 600 catch basins and building protective sand berms along the beach and storm drain outflows. Crews are also checking roofs and gutters at public facilities.For people experiencing homelessness, the winter response will temporarily ease shelter eligibility requirements during storms, allowing first responders and outreach teams to refer people indoors.Santa Monica's declaration follows state and Los Angeles County emergency actions in September . County officials said in September that departments were preparing for possible evacuations and shelter needs while Public Works crews inspected flood-control infrastructure.NOAA's Climate Prediction Center put the chance of a historically strong El Niño at 83% for October through December .

Venice Braces Its Beaches and Canals For El Niño Impact

VENICE - With a historic El Niño already taking shape, Venice is undergoing a series of upgrades and repairs to help protect the coastal area from incoming harsh weather and flood risks. Work has begun to help prepare the coastal area for record-breaking water levels and flooding risks, with improvements underway in vulnerable areas including the Venice Pier and tree-lined roadways. The preparation has included clearing out storm drains, trimming more than 100 trees, and renewing infrastructure in flooding-prone areas like the Venice canals. Large waves associated with the storm have already caused coastal LA's sea levels to reach 1.3 feet above average , breaking previous records for maximum sea levels. Warmer water temperatures cause the increase in sea levels, and with LA continuing to see hotter water temperatures than normal, the levels may only continue to rise. El Niño is a naturally occurring climate period categorized by increased storms and rain due to warm ocean temperatures. The strong storms bring risk of debris flows, rising sea levels, and localized floods because of the rain - during LA's past El Niño winters, some of the county saw its rainfall more than double. To prevent erosion along the coastline and protect
