On Friday, the storied coastal road had dissolved into a river of mud and debris after a powerful rainstorm sent those burned hillsides careening toward the ocean, turning canyons into rivers of mud and rocks.

The second in a pair of back-to-back storm systems moved across Southern California overnight, triggering small mudslides in the Palisades Fire burn area and keeping public works crews and first responders on alert.
