Southern California emerges from a series of winter storms with skies clearing but faces ongoing mudslide risks due to saturated ground.
Recent storms have added to the already saturated ground, leading to mudslides and road closures in various areas.
Despite the challenges, no severe damage has been reported, and the state is expected to see a dry period with warming temperatures.
Residents and businesses have been proactive in preparing for the storms, with sandbags, sump pumps, and roof patches in high demand.
