Winds reaching up to 70 mph are expected to pummel?parts of southern?California Monday and Tuesday, forecasters told NBC LA.
NBC News reported that?34,000 Southern California Edison?customers?remained without power early Monday as a result of?last week's?wind storms.?A second round is certain to impede cleanup and repair efforts.
Tens of thousands of homes and businesses remained without power for a second day on Friday after powerful winds toppled trees and power lines and left debris across a wide swath of Southern California.
High wind warnings will be in effect from Monday morning to Tuesday afternoon in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties, with gusts as powerful as 60 to 70 miles per hour expected.
The wind will increase the risk of wildfires and make driving difficult and hazardous, the National Weather Service said.
"Northeast winds are expected to increase sharply late tonight across the mountains and valleys of Los Angeles and Ventura counties," the weather service said on its website Sunday. The strongest winds there are expected to hit on Monday, gusting to 70 pmh offshore and 60 mph in coastal and valley areas.
Inland winds will also blow up to 60 mph in San Bernardino and Riverside Counties,?the weather service said.?The gusts will make driving risky for tall vehicles and could blow over trees.
