Red Flag Days in Los Angeles
While we are not under "red flag" warnings right now in Los Angeles, current weather patterns point to more in the coming days.
Recently, Red Flag Parking restrictions were instituted in all hill and mountain sections of LA
On a side note, I realized I needed to be aware of Red Flag alerts, even though I don't live in the hills, as I have many clients who do. I am usually required to park on the street at these homes and during a Red Flag Alert, I would not be able to do so. You might run into similar problems when visiting friends and family who live in the hills.
There are many resources you can call upon to stay aware or Red Flag warning and their status:
LAFD's Red Flag info site with web, email and RSS notifications
National Weather Service
Dial 311 for the LA Citywide Services Directory
Local newspapers, television and radio outlets

Mr. Welch:
Thanks for helping us share concerns regarding wildfire danger in Southern California.
As a small technical matter, the Red Flag Parking Restrictions are applicable within only the CITY of Los Angeles, and are not applicable in the adjacent County regions.
Your blog makes for an interesting read, and we're pleased to have added it (and your RSS Feed) to our bookmarks.
Respectfully Yours in Safety and Service,
