Communities across Southern California are cleaning up after several days of showers across the region.
Evacuation warnings were in place for neighborhoods across Los Angeles County, primarily in areas surrounding recent burn scars -- including in Altadena around the Eaton Fire burn scar.
While rain is still falling in some areas, rain chances are finally moving east, with heavier cells expected to die down by Sunday night.
A chance for scattered showers is in the forecast on Monday morning, with rain chances sticking around through the afternoon.
From there, another storm system that we were tracking is now predicted to stay offshore, so the sun should come out by Tuesday or Wednesday. Most areas see a maximum of a 20% chance of rain on Tuesday, followed by a rain-free week.
A stretch of Pacific Coast Highway in Huntington Beach is closed due to flooding.
The closure is in effect from Warner Avenue to Seapoint Street, according to Caltrans.
Drivers are asked to avoid the area and use caution if traveling through the area.
A flood advisory is in effect for a swath of Southern California with downpours expected in some areas.
Meanwhile, a flood watch remains in place until 10 p.m. Thursday.
Here's a look at the latest forecast as a New Year's Day storm moves across the region.
The Rose Parade is hours away -- rain or shine and volunteers have spent countless hours decorating floats, and now those famous floats are making the slow, wet roll to Pasadena.
"It's like being at the parade without having to be at the parade," said Covina resident Mark Cook. "And we still get to enjoy the rain."
Cook is one of many visitors and parade fans that came armed with umbrellas and ponchos. People are starting to camp out to get their spot for the big day.
"This is a family tradition. We've been doing it for over 10 years. I think these guys have been out here since they were babies, and we do this every year, rain or shine," said Pomona resident Eric Farr.
The rain won't dampen their celebration, but it certainly has reduced the number of people claiming their front row seat for the Rose parade. There's more covered chairs along Colorado Boulevard than actual campers.
Authorities are out enforcing the rules as no tents or pop-ups are allowed along the route. It's been two decades since it rained on the world-famous Rose Parade.
But those with campers and RVs, staying nice and dry.
"We have all the perks it's the best ever, but it's the best way to ring in the new year," said Riverside resident Stacie Ontko.
The wet weather forced officials to cover the more delicate details of the floats. READ MORE HERE...
In the San Bernardino mountains, volunteers are putting in countless hours helping homeowners dig out from the last big storm. Without these good Samaritans, some had no idea how they were going to recover from the disaster.
Over the weekend, a group of volunteers arrived at Mike Dodgin's Piñon Hills home to help clean up after a flood swept through the home on Christmas Eve.
"All of Sheep Creek from Wrightwood came through this property," said Dodgin.
The only thing saved was a mattress. Everything else is gone. But not all is lost.
Team Rubicon is now leading the effort to muck out Dodgin's home, removing load after load of mud before the difficult work of tearing out soaked walls can even begin.
"We have a group of volunteers that will come out to assist communities in these situations," said Will Chiaffino, of Team Rubicon. "These disasters can be pretty overwhelming."
For 78-year-old Dodgin, this is about more than debris removal -- it's a lifeline. READ MORE HERE...
