A number of considerable mudflows forced the closure of multiple roads in the Palisades Fire burn scar on Sunday.

Los Angeles County's first significant storm in more than eight months has already forced the closure of the 5 freeway at the Grapevine, unleashed mud on roadways, and triggered the closure of Malibu's public schools Monday due to dangerous road conditions.

Burn-scar areas from the Palisades and Eaton fires avoided major issues from the weekend rain that tapered off Monday afternoon, with no significant weather events projected for the rest of the week.

The heaviest rainfall has slowed across Southern California. While the storm caused some mudslide and flooding issues, officials say it was largely beneficial.

Rain has mostly moved out of Southern California after the first significant storm of the season brought weekend downpours that aided firefighters. Ash and mud flowed across streets, but no
