Expecting rain starting Thursday afternoon for northern areas and reaching the LA area Thursday night. Lower confidence in the rain forecast Friday into the weekend, and will depend on where the low pressure system off the coast tracks. There is also a 10-20% chance for thunderstorms Thursday into Thursday night for San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara Counties, with chances shifting south for Friday night into Saturday. Potential Impacts: Travel delays with wet roads, increased flows in creeks/streams, canyon rock/mudslides and a chance for burn area flash flooding an at least minor debris flows.
A low pressure system will bring rain, a chance of thunderstorms, and areas of gusty winds to the area Thursday into Friday. Rainfall totals through Friday from 1-2 inches will be common, with higher amounts of 2-4 inches for the mountains and foothills, especially for the Santa Lucia mountains, Santa Ynez Range, and the Ventura County mountains. Rain chances will last into the weekend, mostly for Ventura and LA County.
