California Gov. Gavin Newsom says there's no imminent threat to the state from Iran. ABC News says the FBI warned California that Iran had aspired to send drones to the West Coast in retaliation for war. The FBI later released text of the alert, which noted that the information was based on "unverified information." The White House now says, "No such threat from Iran to our homeland exists." Newsom says California and various agencies plan for worst-case scenarios. Police in Los Angeles and San Francisco say they are monitoring world events for any risks.

Residents of a Southern California mountain community near the Eaton Fire burn scar are digging out of roads submerged in sludge after the strongest storm of the year swept through the area, unleashing debris flows. Dry weather returned to the region but the risk of rock and mudslides on wildfire-scarred hillsides continued Friday since dangerous slides can strike even after rain stops. Water, debris and boulders rushed down the mountain in the city of Sierra Madre Thursday night, trapping at least one car in the mud and damaging several home garages with mud and debris.
