If fire ignition occurs, there is a high risk of rapid fire spread and extreme fire behavior which could threaten lives and properties.
SCE is considering Public Safety Power Shutoffs across much of Malibu due to forecasted high winds.
Be prepared for potential power outages, fires, evacuations, traffic signal outages, downed trees and hazardous road conditions. Come to a complete stop at any intersection with a malfunctioning traffic signal, under CA law.
People with disabilities, or who rely on medical devices or have mobility challenges, and owners of horses and other large animals should consider leaving the area early.
Closely monitor weather conditions and emergency information on local news, especially AM / FM radio which will function with handcrank, battery, solar and car radios if the power is out. Make sure you are signed up for emergency alerts from City of Malibu, at www.malibucity.org/alerts, and LA County, at https://ready.lacounty.gov/alerts.
