El Niño Winter 2026/2027 Emergency Preparation Considerations
By Clark Anderson Safety Director, Del Monte Forest Property Owners Assoc.
In case you hadn't been listening to the news, we are expecting a stronger-than-normal El Niño weather system this winter. We can expect much more rain (predictions say 150% to 200% of normal rainfall) and (probably) high winds and ocean surge. For Pebble Beach residents this usually means:
- Power outages
- Blocked roads due to fallen trees
- Possible washed-out roads near the coast
- Possible limited access to stores
