Both sides of Willow Street were closed due to flooding. Cars remained stuck in the high water just before 9 a.m. as more rain continued to fall.

One driver said he was stranded in the water and could not open his door. Firefighters responded to pull him out of the car.

No injuries were reported. Tow trucks were at the scene, but the water was still too deep late Thursday morning for the car to be pulled out.

More flooding was reported near the 710 Freeway and Pacific Coast Highway. Both side of PCH from Seapoint Street to Warner Avenue were closed.

A flash flood warning was in effect until 11:15 a.m. for the area and other parts of southern Los Angeles County.
