Winds will be breezy with widespread gusts between 35 to 45 mph across gaps and passes with locally higher gusts up to 60 mph possible along mountain ridgetops on Wednesday. There is a 15 to 20% chance of thunderstorms (highest probability directly along the coast) Wednesday into early Thursday. Snow levels drop to around 3000 feet on Thursday with some potential for snow in the Santa Lucia Range. While the initial Tuesday to Thursday storm looks to be the most impactful, additional rounds of wetting rains are expected Friday into next week. Note : All winds are 20-foot Winds Unless otherwise specified. Thunderstorms imply strong, gusty and erratic winds. ...Discussion from Los Angeles/Oxnard... ...PERIODS OF RAIN AND MOUNTAIN SNOW THROUGH FRIDAY, WITH POTENTIAL FOR FLOODING, DEBRIS FLOWS, MOUNTAIN SNOW, THUNDERSTORMS, AND GUSTY WINDS... ...FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY FOR MANY AREAS SOUTH OF POINT CONCEPTION, MAINLY FOCUSED ON RECENT BURN SCARS WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR DEBRIS FLOWS... Isolated off and on again light showers will linger through tonight, then increase in coverage during the day on Wednesday. Widespread moderate to heavy rain and mountain snow will work down the coast Wednesday Night into early Thursday. Peak rain rates of 0.5 to 1.0 inches per hour will be common, especially in the favored foothills. Minor flooding and shallow debris flows are likely, with a moderate risk for deeper more impactful debris flows. Moderate to strong south winds are also expected, with gusts of 45 to 65 mph focused over the mountains, interior valleys, and Central Coast. On Thursday the flooding risk will lower some but not go away as scattered showers and thunderstorms persist. Any thunderstorm that forms will be capable of producing brief heavy rain, gusty winds, and a remote risk of a weak tornado. Rain totals of 1 to 2 inches will be common, with 2 to 4 inches in the favored south-facing mountains and foothills. Snow levels will lower with impacts to most mountain roads including Interstate 5. Fairly widespread west to northwest wind gusts of 30 to 50 mph will form Thursday afternoon and evening. After a break on Thursday Night, another but weak storm will move through the area on Friday with minimal impacts.
