Avoid going up the mountain if you can. A flash flood warning means flash flooding is either imminent or already occurring.
Thunderstorm in the San Jacinto mountains! Plenty of lightning indicated on radar north of HWY 74. #CAwxpic.twitter.com/ra9gBd3LkB— Haley Clawson KESQ (@KESQHaley) July 22, 2021
