Overview
- Evacuation warnings were issued for Forest Falls, Angelus Oaks, Seven Oaks and parts of Oak Glen as officials weighed ongoing debris‑flow risk, with some alerts later adjusted by authorities.
- About 10 people in six to seven vehicles were stranded by debris on State Route 38 near Jenks Lake; emergency crews evaluated the group and reported no injuries in the mountain incidents.
- Caltrans and CHP reported major closures and damage, including blocked stretches of Highway 38 and Oak Glen Road, as county teams conducted structure and infrastructure assessments.
- Barstow police confirmed the death of 2‑year‑old Xavier Padilla Aguilera after floodwaters swept a family vehicle off the road in a separate incident; his father was rescued.
- National Weather Service gauges recorded roughly 1 to 1.77 inches of rain in an hour in spots, and officials linked the rapid runoff and debris flows to the 2020 El Dorado Fire burn scar, with storms easing for now but additional tropical moisture possible next week.
