Ready LA County: Los Angeles County is getting ready for a possible wet winter due to El Niño. We are urging residents to prepare now for the heightened potential of severe storms. Here's what El Niño could mean for our region, the steps the County is taking, and the actions you can take now to protect your household. Download and print a copy of this information here.
What is El Nino?
El Niño is a naturally occurring climate pattern that warms the Pacific Ocean. The warmer the water, the more it evaporates – building massive storm clouds overhead. This means a greater chance of heavier rain and back-to-back storms in Southern California. While a wet winter isn't guaranteed, the odds are elevated. Storm season officially begins mid- October and typically lasts through early spring.
What the County is Doing to Prepare
LA County works year-round to prepare our infrastructure for winter storms, and a coordinated, countywide effort is already underway to keep residents safe this winter.
A robust flood protection system. LA County maintains one of the nation's most comprehensive flood control systems, including dams, reservoirs, debris basins, spreading basins, channels, storm drains and pump stations that work together to reduce flood risks and protect lives, property and critical infrastructure. LA County Public Works crews prepare for storm season months in advance by inspecting dams and channels, removing debris and sediment from reservoirs, maintaining storm drains and pump stations, and ensuring flood control facilities are ready before winter storms arrive.
Protecting our most vulnerable residents. Severe weather doesn't affect everyone equally. The County is taking targeted steps to safeguard those at greatest risk:
What You Can Do Now
A little preparation goes a long way:
During a Storm
When storms hit, stay alert. Steer clear of hazards such as downed power lines and flooded areas and never drive or walk through flooded roadways. Watch for mud and debris flows, and if you observe rising water or moving mud, move to higher ground.
Look Out for Others
Remember to look out for others. Check on your neighbors, older adults, youth, and others who may need assistance preparing for and recovering from severe weather.

Burbank, CA (August 28, 2026) – This September, Burbank Public Library is introducing three exclusive library card designs featuring iconic Nickelodeon franchises, as part of the Library's celebration of National Library Card Sign-up Month.
In partnership with Nickelodeon Our World, the brand’s initiative to empower kids on their journey to building life skills, the limited-edition Burbank Public Library cards feature artwork from the animated series SpongeBob SquarePants, Avatar: The Last Airbender, and Teeny Mutant Ninja Turtles.
The special-edition cards will be available beginning in September as part of National Library Card Sign-up Month, an annual campaign that celebrates the power of a library card as a gateway to discovery, learning, and entertainment.
“This partnership is a wonderful example of the creativity that makes Burbank such a special community,” said Mayor Tamala Takahashi. “By bringing together our Library with the imagination and storytelling of Nickelodeon, we’re creating a fun new way for residents to connect with all the Library has to offer.”
"We're thrilled to partner with Nickelodeon Our World to offer these exciting new library card designs," said Eric Lashley, Burbank Library Services Director.

LA28 is expected to begin preparations as early as January 2027 for the 30-acre campus to become the International Broadcast Center. The Ranch Lot includes 16 soundstages, along with production support facilities, workshop space, and creative offices designed to support large-scale production operations.
