 Flash Flood Warning 
Statement as of 12:55 PM PDT on May 22, 2008


The National Weather Service in San Diego has issued a

* Flash Flood Warning for...
Orange County in southwest California...
this includes the cities of... Yorba Linda... Tustin foothills...
Tustin... Mission Viejo... Irvine... Fullerton... Anaheim...
extreme southwestern Riverside County in southwest California...

* until 200 PM PDT

* at 1249 PM PDT... local law enforcement officials reported flash
flooding from thunderstorms along Live Oak Canyon Road.

* Locations in the warning include but are not limited to Rancho
Santa Margarita

The towns of Silverado and Modjeska... in addition to other
neighborhoods and buildings located along drainages within or below
any of the burned basins... can be impacted by debris flows.

Debris flows issuing from burned basins can impact roads traveling up
Silverado creek... Williams Canyon... Harding Canyon and Modjeska
creek... as well as any other roads within the burned area...
particularly where they cross burned drainages.

Debris flows... including mud and rock slides... are expected with this
storm. Mud slides and rock slides can potentially trap and kill
people caught in their path.

Do not drive your vehicle into areas where the water covers the
roadway. The water depth may be too great to allow your car to cross
safely. Move to higher ground.

 High Surf Advisory 
Statement as of 1:27 am PDT on May 22, 2008


... High surf advisory now in effect until 1 am PDT Friday...

The high surf advisory is now in effect until 1 am PDT Friday.

Surf of 4 to 7 feet is expected with sets to 8 feet. The northwest
wind swell will decrease tonight and the surf will be below high
surf criteria by Friday morning. High tides will be 5.8 feet
tonight and should not cause any problems... although coastal areas
may experience some beach erosion.

Fishing or observing large waves from exposed coastal structures
or rocks during high surf conditions can be dangerous. Large
waves can break across previously dry areas. Swimming or surfing
in these waves is dangerous due to the powerful waves and very
strong rip currents.

A high surf advisory means that high surf will affect beaches in
the advisory area... producing strong rip currents and localized
beach erosion.


Whitlow





 Special Weather Statement 
Statement as of 9:15 am PDT on May 22, 2008


... Cool and unsettled weather through Memorial Day weekend...

A developing low pressure system will bring cool and unsettled
weather with a chance of showers and thunderstorms today through
Sunday. The best chance for showers and thunderstorms will be over
the mountains. People with outdoor activities should expect periods
of showers or thunderstorms during the Holiday weekend.
Thunderstorms contain deadly lightning and may produce brief heavy
rain... gusty winds... and small hail. Snow is possible above 7000
feet in the san gorgonio wilderness and on mount San Jacinto.
Rainfall amounts will be highly variable due to the showery nature
of the precipitation.

The weather will be considerably cooler than last week with high
temperatures running 10 to 20 degrees below seasonal averages.
Interested parties should stay informed on the latest forecast.
