If there are super high winds, you should go to an interior hallway (no windows, ideally surrounded by other rooms with doors into the hallway shut). Unfortunately, I doubt anyone in SoCal has a storm cellar/basement yet. Also, you can put plywood over your windows to keep debris from breaking them, but it is probably too late if you haven't done that yet.

Beware of trees with shallow, surface roots as wind may uproot them (but trees with deep roots like oaks will deflect the wind).
