The Los Angeles Fire Department is reporting street flooding in San Pedro and other southernmost areas of the city. They "are experiencing severe stormwater impact at this time," the department tweeted. "Motorists are advised to avoid routine travel in the area."
[Update: "In some locations 'feet of water' impacting homes/businesses," a subsequent tweet noted.]

Being an idiot, I actually drove across San Pedro during the worst of it, and there were multiple intersections along Pacific that were barely passable. I've lived in Pedro for over a decade, and I've never seen anything like it - cars pushed into things, retaining walls collapsed, etc... Water is coming up over the breakwater like I haven't seen in years, too.
I live about 2 blocks from where they're evacuating homes, and the intersection at 4th and Grand is a swimming pool filled with stray cars. It's gotta be 2-3 feet deep, at least. Multiple fire engines, lots of cops, etc...
NB: We don't give a shit, because San Pedro is where dull-ass squares live. (And self-admitted idiots.) Glub-glub, real Americans!!

Proving the rule.
Or:
"FROM" is the operating word in your statement.
