Department of Public Health on Sunday cautioned those planning to visit county beaches to be careful of swimming, surfing and playing in ocean waters due to possible contamination caused by storm drain discharge.
Ocean and bay recreational waters, especially near discharging storm drains, creeks and rivers, can be contaminated with bacteria, chemicals, debris, trash and other public health hazards from city streets and mountain areas after rainfall. Individuals who enter the water in these areas could become ill.The storm is expected to pass through the area by Sunday night. Some lingering showers will be possible Monday morning, primarily in mountain areas, forecasters said.
Yeah the homeless in our area use the storm drains as their trash cans … check out Chatsworth Metro station for yourself .. sad for the ocean

Southern California has some of the nastiest water and that’s all the time!
Toxic city's dumping their sht into the ocean. Get to the source and report where its coming from.

Maybe LA public health should focus on why the oceans are always toxic lately instead testing skunks for c*vid and insisting on masks
