Gusty winds whip through Southern California, toppling trees and power lines
Strong Santa Ana winds buffeted Southern California on Tuesday, toppling big rigs and trees, knocking down power lines and wreaking havoc on outdoor Christmas decorations.
The winds, which began whipping through Los Angeles and Ventura counties overnight, are expected to peak about noon before tapering off. They could reach up to 25 mph with gusts up to 55 mph along the coast and stronger in the mountains and foothills, where gusts could reach up to 70 mph, said Lisa Phillips, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Oxnard.
Wind advisories are in effect for the Ventura County and Los Angeles County coasts, and in downtown L.A., Malibu, Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, Hollywood and Long Beach, along with the San Fernando Valley and Santa Clarita Valley. Drivers are advised to use extra caution, especially when operating high-profile vehicles and traveling wind-prone routes, such as canyon roads through the Santa Monica Mountains, according to the weather service.
Gusty winds toppled big rigs on freeways Tuesday morning, resulting in traffic delays across the region. At about 7 a.m., winds flipped a big rig on its side on the northbound 15 Freeway near the Sierra Avenue exit in Fontana. Several other truck drivers pulled to the side of the freeway to wait out the wind.
🚨118 FWY UPDATE🚨 As of 8:25am, only the HOV, #4 and #5 lanes are open on EB 118 Fwy at De Soto Ave due to traffic collision involving overturned big rig.
