Moist southwest flow will maintain off an on again light rain until
the next storm, especially over Los Angeles and Ventura Counties.
The next storm will bring widespread steady light to moderate rain
Thursday afternoon through Friday afternoon. Additional rainfall
through the week will likely fall in the 0.25 to 1.00 inch range,
except 1 to 2 inches in the favored mountains and foothills. Rain
rates should generally stay under 0.25 inches per hour, except for
isolated and brief rates between 0.25 and 0.50 inches per hour
Thursday Night. Thunderstorm chances are very small. Snow levels are
very high. Impacts should be generally minimal. Dry conditions will
follow Friday night through Tuesday except for some north slope rain
and snow Friday night. Another storm system will impact the area
next week between Wednesday and Friday. There is a growing potential
for a moderate to strong storm.
