As the downpour lightens across Los Angeles, things are still not back to normal for the region. The Los Angels Fire Department closed over two and a half miles of streets around the Sepulveda Basin in the Valley this morning due to flooding, mandatory evacuations are in place in Orange County and the roof of a building in Anaheim collapsed.

While only Sylmar High School remains in use as a shelter in the San Fernando Valley for evacuees from the Sayre Fire, all Los Angeles Unified School District schools--including Sylmar HS--will be open tomorrow, although there will be no "outdoor activities" taking place due to unhealthy air quality conditions. In Orange County, due to the "Triangle Complex Fire" Brea Public schools, Placentia/Yorba Linda Unified schools, and Brea-Olinda Friends Christian school will be closed.

The fire that broke out Saturday in Corona near Green River Road and the 91 Riverside Freeway has now been dubbed the "Freeway Complex" fire or the "Triangle Freeway" fire because of the broad stretch of land in three counties--Riverside (Corona), Orange (Yorba Linda, Anaheim Hills), and San Bernardino (Chino Hills)--in which it is blazing. A fire in nearby Brea is being connected to this fire, and now threatens the neighboring community of Diamond Bar, which would then involve a fourth county, Los Angeles.
