    <headline>Flash Flood and Debris Flow Watch for Recently Burned Areas in Southern California Cancelled</headline>
    <description>At 11:26 am PST on Friday March 3, the National Weather Service cancelled the flash flood watch of the recent burn areas in Los Angeles and Ventura Counties in southwest California.  The heavy rain showers that occurred earlier in the day have rapidly decreased in coverage and the threat of flash floods and debris flows no longer exists for the burned areas. </description>
