...TWO STORM SYSTEMS THIS WEEK WITH GUSTY WINDS AND GENERALLY
BENEFICIAL RAIN...

...DRY NORTH TO NORTHEAST WINDS FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...

.DISCUSSION...
The first storm system will pass through the region by Wednesday
afternoon. For San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara Counties, rain totals of
0.75 to 1.50 inches will be common, with 1.5 to 3.0 inches in the
foothills and mountains. Northwest San Luis Obispo County will likely
see much higher totals. Peak rain rates should range between 0.25 to
0.50 inches per hour, with local rates of 0.50 to 0.75 inches per hour.
For Los Angeles and Ventura Counties, totals of 0.25 to 0.75 inches will
be common, with 0.75 to 1.50 inches in the favored hills including the
Palisades and Eaton burn scars. Peak rates of 0.10 to 0.25 inches per
hour will be common, with local rates of 0.25 to 0.50 inches per hour.
Thunderstorm chances are very small. Snow levels are very high. Impacts
should be generally minimal, but there will be a few potential problem
areas. There is a low but present risk of small creek flooding in and
downstream of the Santa Lucias. Vulnerable canyon roads like Topanga
Canyon will likely see mud and debris flows. South to southwest wind
gusts of 25 to 45 mph will be common over the mountains, interior, and
Central Coast through tonight, with local gusts of 50 to 60 mph. After a
break Wednesday afternoon through Thursday morning, a second storm will
move through Thursday Night into Friday. This storm will be the weakest
of the two, and bring more uniform rain over the region. Totals will
generally fall between 0.25 and 1.00 inches, except 1 to 2 inches over
the favored mountains and hills. Impacts will again be generally minor.

Winds will quickly turn northwesterly Friday afternoon, then turn north
to northeasterly Friday Night through Monday. Gusts of 30 to 50 mph are
likely in the wind favored areas like the I-5 Corridor, the Santa Monica
Mountains, much of Santa Barbara County, and the Santa Lucia Range.
Humidities will lower quickly as well, with minimums falling into the
10 to 20 percent range by Sunday, especially in the mountains. While the
combination of winds and humidities may approach brief critical
conditions, the very recent rains should limit any fire weather danger.

Please note: the LAL has been removed nationally and any thunderstorm
chances will still be mentioned in the weather element.
