洛杉磯縣因降雨對當地海灘發布健康警告
LA County issues health warning for local beaches after rain
繼近期風暴過後，洛杉磯縣公共衛生局已發布海水水質雨天警告。
Following recent storms, the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health has issued an Ocean Water Quality Rain Advisory.
這是一項標準安全措施，因為雨水會將細菌和化學物質等污染物，從街道和城市區域沖刷進海洋。
This is a standard safety measure because rainfall washes pollutants like bacteria and chemicals from streets and urban areas into the ocean.
衛生官員建議民眾在降雨停止後的至少72小時內，避免與海水接觸——包括游泳、衝浪或戲水。
Health officials advise the public to avoid ocean water contact—such as swimming, surfing, or playing—for at least 72 hours after rain stops.
這段時間能讓升高的細菌含量消散。
This time allows elevated bacteria levels to dissipate.
儘管大多數海岸線在乾燥天氣下是安全的，但與逕流接觸仍可能引發腸胃炎或皮膚感染等疾病，尤其是在雨水排水渠、溪流和河流附近。
While most of the coastline is safe during dry weather, contact with runoff can cause illnesses like gastroenteritis or skin infections, especially near storm drains, creeks, and rivers.
為了您的安全，請在前往之前務必檢查當地海灘的即時狀況。
For your safety, always check the current status of local beaches before heading out.
保持資訊暢通有助於您在雨季期間安全、愉快地享受海岸時光。
Staying informed helps ensure a safe and enjoyable time at the coast during the rainy season.
