The so-called Freeway Complex Fire started Nov. 15 in the Santa Ana River watershed in Riverside County and spread to three neighboring counties.

Gusting Santa Ana winds drove the flames, which destroyed or damaged more than 310 homes and scorched an estimated 47 square miles, according to the Orange County Fire Authority.

As with any significant fire in Southern California, post-fire erosion is now a serious public safety concern in and below the burned areas for the Freeway Complex Fire.

The same can be said of the recently burned areas in Santa Barbara County and the San Fernando Valley.

With a wet storm in the forecast, the National Weather Service has posted flash flood watches for the burned areas from this afternoon through Wednesday evening.
