<p>A dangerous windstorm is expected to blow through Ventura and Los Angeles Counties in Southern <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/los-angeles" target="_blank" rel="noopener">California</a> this week, according to forecasters.</p>
<p>&#8220;HEADS UP!!!&#8221; the National Weather Service (NWS) Los Angeles said in all capital letters with a post to X on Monday <a href="https://x.com/NWSLosAngeles/status/1876343016526598292" target="_blank" rel="noopener">warning</a> of the potential tempest.</p>
<p>&#8220;A LIFE-THREATENING, DESTRUCTIVE, Widespread Windstorm is expected [Tuesday] afternoon-[Wednesday] morning across much of Ventura/LA Co,&#8221; it added.</p>

<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Here are potential impacts for the upcoming strong winds Tuesday through Wednesday. Here&#39;s what you can do to prepare to help minimize impacts! <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/CAwx?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#CAwx</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/SoCal?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#SoCal</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/LA?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#LA</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/LAwind?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#LAwind</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/LosAngeles?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#LosAngeles</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/VenturaCounty?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#VenturaCounty</a> <a href="https://t.co/CIHdZo3AC5">pic.twitter.com/CIHdZo3AC5</a></p>
<p>&mdash; NWS Los Angeles (@NWSLosAngeles) <a href="https://twitter.com/NWSLosAngeles/status/1876408016930803836?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 6, 2025</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Areas that are not &#8220;typically windy will be impacted,&#8221; NWS Los Angeles said, advising people to &#8220;stay indoors, away from windows&#8221; and to anticipate power outages.</p>
<p>Locations of &#8220;greatest concern&#8221; in which people were urged to take &#8220;immediate action&#8221; included Simi Valley, San Fernando, Burbank, Pasadena, Santa Monica.</p>
<p>One account on X asked what the difference is between a typical Santa Ana winds event and the extreme weather that was in the forecast.</p>
<p>Santa Ana winds are &#8220;[h]igh-speed and dangerous winds that periodically kick up and blow from the mountains to the coast in Southern California,&#8221; per <a href="https://www.accuweather.com/en/weather-news/what-are-santa-ana-winds-2/343027#google_vignette" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AccuWeather</a>.</p>
<p>&#8220;The wind direction of this event is more from the N-NE rather than typical NE-E Santa Ana&#8217;s,&#8221; NWS Los Angeles said in <a href="https://x.com/NWSLosAngeles/status/1876356700325978155" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reply</a> to the question.</p>
<p>&#8220;This means the strongest wind corridors shift more east &amp; focus over more of LA Co. than is typical (including San Gabriel foothills) rather than the Ventura Coast,&#8221; it added.</p>
<p>Possible impacts include downed trees, <a href="https://x.com/ReadyLACounty/status/1876346129115468226" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fast-moving wildfires</a> due to dry conditions, &#8220;knocked over&#8221; big rigs and motorhomes, airport delays, and dangerous sea conditions.</p>
<p>The Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT) <a href="https://x.com/LADOTofficial/status/1876395879730393095" target="_blank" rel="noopener">issued</a> a weather advisory for what it said was an expected &#8220;severe wind storm&#8221; to impact parts of Los Angeles.</p>
<p>&#8220;Traveling may be difficult, especially for high profile vehicles. Remain in lower levels of your home and away from windows. Use caution if you must drive,&#8221; it said.</p>
<p>&#8220;Report downed trees to 311 and downed power lines to 911,&#8221; LADOT added. &#8220;Sign up for emergency alerts at NotifyLA.org.&#8221;</p>
<p>Los Angeles <a href="https://lafd.org/news/red-flag-parking-restrictions-effect-800am-7-january-2025" target="_blank" rel="noopener">declared</a> a &#8220;Red Flag Alert&#8221; with parking restrictions lasting at least 24 hours, starting at 8 a.m. local time on Tuesday, the city&#8217;s fire department said.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Here&#39;s a little more details on the upcoming wind event. The strongest wind areas of LA and Ventura Counties will see widespread N-NE wind gusts of 50-80 mph, with isolated gusts up to 80-100 mph in the mountains and foothills. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/SoCal?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#SoCal</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/CAwx?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#CAwx</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/LAwind?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#LAwind</a> <a href="https://t.co/swzlRX2G99">pic.twitter.com/swzlRX2G99</a></p>
<p>&mdash; NWS Los Angeles (@NWSLosAngeles) <a href="https://twitter.com/NWSLosAngeles/status/1876392297350492294?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 6, 2025</a></p></blockquote>
<p>In other posts, NWS Los Angeles <a href="https://x.com/NWSLosAngeles/status/1876354438966956073" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> gusts of 50 to 80 miles per hour (mph) were <a href="https://x.com/NWSLosAngeles/status/1876392297350492294" target="_blank" rel="noopener">possible</a>, and isolated gusts of 80 to 100 mph across the mountains and foothills.</p>
<p>The coming windstorm may be the &#8220;strongest event&#8221; since one in 2011 in which Pasadena was &#8220;specifically hit hard,&#8221; NWS Los Angeles <a href="https://x.com/NWSLosAngeles/status/1876396608814014654" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>, and likely more widespread.</p>
