Transcript of Severe storms drive rain, mudslides, and a rare tornado into southern California

In Malibu, a mud-covered SUV tossed surface on after a terrifying moment mid-storm. Dashcam capturing a rainfuel torrent, exploding through concrete barriers onto the Pacific Coast Highway, where it swept this SUV off the road in seconds. The debris barely missing Hector Caldera's own truck.

As soon as we start backing up to the other side, another slide, so we got trapped from both slides.

Our crew there as the driver LA fire, climbed out shaken but somehow safe. The close call blamed on an atmospheric river, drenching charred burn zones, flooding the Los Angeles Metro area, even unleashing a rare tornado near Oxnard.

The house shook, and the noise got louder and louder, and it sound like something hit the top of the house.

Mountains of mud lining streets beneath the Eaton fire burn zone, where residents say the slide swallowed nearly everything in its path.

All of a sudden, you could hear the and this flash flood of mud came down the street. It was horrendous.

The storm's so violent, the roof of this supermarket caved in.

I was like, Oh, my God. I was scared out of my mind. It was insane.

Back in Malibu, as a crane hoisted that SUV back onto dry land, Captain Eric Scott stressing, even though the rain stopped, the landslide risk remains. How much longer before that landslide risk ends?

Usually, 48 hours is our main concern burn after the rain stopped. But again, this is still rather tumultuous. There's a lot of burned, scarred footprints throughout Los Angeles, and we know there's more rain to come.

And tonight here outside the famed Duke's Malibu, as crews try to clean up this muddy mess, officials say those evacuation orders issued yesterday should all be expiring by the end of tonight. Lester.
