3 Storms Barreling Toward SoCal To Unleash Rain And Flooding
On Friday, the first of several storm systems swept across Southern California, delivering widespread rain, gusty winds, and cooling temperatures as the National Weather Service identified the pattern as a "storm train."
This active weather pattern follows unseasonably warm conditions that pushed highs near 90 degrees, as three low-pressure systems move back-to-back across the region through next week.
A High Surf Advisory remains in effect through Tuesday as tides reach 7.4 feet, while localized street flooding stranded vehicles in Wilmington and authorities warned of potential flooding in beach parking lots.
Health officials issued a general rain advisory for San Diego beaches urging residents to avoid water contact for 72 hours, while the airport reported nearly 80 delays and two cancellations for arrivals.
After a brief dry spell on Sunday, the pattern continues as additional systems arrive early next week, with forecasters expecting colder, weaker storms to bring further rainfall Monday through Wednesday across the Southland.
