In response to the significant impact of winter storms that struck San Diego in the last 24 hours and Ventura counties in late December and January, Governor Gavin Newsom has declared a state of emergency.
The proclamation, issued today, aims to provide crucial support for the ongoing recovery efforts in the affected regions.
The state of emergency declaration comes as a recognition of the challenges faced by residents and communities grappling with the aftermath of the severe weather conditions, the Governor’s office said.
Local authorities, emergency services, and relevant agencies will collaborate closely to implement the provisions outlined in the state of emergency declaration.
