The wet week in Southern California is not over yet, and Friday arrives before a cold, dry weekend.
The final round of rainfall for the week is expected to be between the coast and the valley along a ten-quarter inch of rain. In the north, the total rainfall will be higher, ranging from half to an inch in Santa Barbara County.
“It will be more than just light rain, but more than just heavy rain,” said Mike Wofford, a meteorologist at Oxnard National Weather Service.
But don’t hide those umbrellas. According to the National Weather Service, it is possible to bring light rain to parts of the south on Monday, with most of the moisture aiming at the north of the point. Remnants of an atmospheric river that will hit Northern California this weekend will bring cold windy conditions to southern southern states and then wet.
The rain that arrives in the area on Friday morning is expected to linger in the afternoon or evening. It may also transport several inches of snow, including the vine section along Highway 5 This week, a large amount of fresh powder accumulates on the hills in the area.
There are still winter storm warnings in Los Angeles, Ventura and Santa Barbara County mountains at 5 a.m. Saturday, warning of possible heavy snow and gusts, with a maximum speed of up to 50 mph.
A series of atmospheric rivers that hit the area this week provide quite a bit of moisture, and are still struggling to catch up after the dryer range in winter is drier.
In Los Angeles County, the Cogswell Dam received 3.82 inches of rain in three days. Beverly Hills sees 1.29 inches and downtown Los Angeles gets 1.22 inches. In the San Fernando Valley, the storm poured 2.28 inches on woodland hills and 1.60 inches on La Cañada Flintridge.
Hollywood Burbank Airport also lowered its previous total rainfall record by one hundred inches, earning 0.94 inches in the past three days, compared to 0.93 in 1986. At Long Beach Airport, one-inch rainfall dropped by 0.65 inches, breaking the 0.53 inches record in 1998.
At Lancaster Fox Field, a 0.52-inch rain hit, breaking the 2020 record of 0.40-inch.
Thursday’s storm brought some wild weather, triggering Tornado in Pico Rivera There are some floods, which are not as good as The system in February triggered mudslides along the Pacific Coast expressway and swept vehicles into the oceanWolfder said.
It is expected to be dry on Saturdays and Sundays, but the daytime temperatures remain a little cold in Los Angeles and Orange County from the mid-1960s to the 1960s. By Monday, another storm will enter the area, bringing about 30% of the light rain to Los Angeles. It is also possible that the South would only encounter some gusts of wind from the system, Worford said.
“If we get anything, it’s going to be light,” Wolfder said.
Despite recent wet weather, most of Southern California is still a few inches lower than normal in terms of water year rainfall.
Rainfall in downtown Los Angeles has begun 7.58 inches since the start of October 1. The average of the water season is 11.96 inches and the annual average is 14.25 inches.
“We have some make up for it,” Wolfder said. “There won’t be much next week, so we’re going to be in a deficit for a while. Unless something really changes, we’re likely to be below normal levels this season.”
