Moving to California, the NWS has issued a Severe Thunderstorm Warning for areas near Santa Ynez, El Capitan State Beach, Refugio State Beach, Isla Vista, Goleta, Lake Cachuma, and Santa Barbara Airport. The warning highlights the potential for 60 mph wind gusts, which could lead to damage to roofs, siding, and trees.
Additionally, a Flash Flood Warning has been issued for parts of southwest California, urging residents to remain cautious due to the aftermath of heavy rain. The warning advises people to heed road closures and stay vigilant as flood watch remains in effect until 3:00 PM PDT Tuesday.
In Florida, a Dense Fog Advisory has been put in place for portions of northeast and northern Florida and southeast Georgia. Similar to the Oklahoma advisory, low visibility of 1/4 mile or less in dense fog could create dangerous driving conditions until 10 AM EDT.
