Most of L.A. County has a chance of rain this weekend, according to the National Weather Service.
The death in Pico Rivera marks the first time someone has been killed by lightning in 2022, according to the National Lightning Safety Council.
Severe thunderstorms struck both the West and East Coast on Wednesday morning, bringing powerful lightning and storm winds that devastated Los Angeles and Central Virginia.
Ryan Kittell, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service, said there were instances of "dry lightning" overnight, which poses a high fire danger.
The storms come as an area of low pressure off the coast funneled monsoonal moisture into the region.
