Rainstorm This Week In Palos Verdes: Where To Find Sandbags

PALOS VERDES, CA — Two rain storms are forecast to hit the Palos Verdes Peninsula this week, bringing light to moderate amounts of rain, according to the National Weather Service.

Rainfall is expected to arrive as early as Tuesday, but forecasters aren't predicting heavy downpour. More impactful rain is expected to arrive on Thursday into Friday, the National Weather Service said.

Early estimates for rainfall totals predict about an inch in coastal and valley regions and two to three inches in the foothills and mountains. Forecasters believe there is little risk that rain totals will be enough to cause debris flow in the burn scar areas.

For Palos Verdes residents living in low-lying areas that are prone to flooding, sandbags are available at the following locations:

• Palos Verdes Estates Police Department
• Palos Verdes Estates Fire Station 2
• Rancho Palos Verdes City Hall
• Rancho Palos Verdes Fire Station 53
• Rolling Hills Fire Station 56
• Rolling Hills Estates Fire Station 106
• Ernie Howlett Park - Maintenance Facility

Residents are required to bring their IDs and can pick up a maximum of 10 bags. Those collecting sand were also urged to bring their own shovel or tools. Collecting sand from the beach is illegal.
