Flash flooding caused by a thunderstorm closed some roadways Saturday afternoon in northern Los Angeles County's Antelope Valley, authorities said.
Two lanes of the southbound 14 Freeway near Avenue S in Palmdale were closed about 3:30 p.m. after the roadway flooded, said California Highway Patrol Officer Jennifer Connolly.
A freeway offramp near Soledad Canyon Road in Santa Clarita was also closed because of flooding, she said.
Earlier in the afternoon the National Weather Service warned residents of northern Los Angeles County that a severe storm moving northwest through the area could cause flash flooding, quarter-size hail and winds in excess of 60 mph.
