A slow moving low pressure system with moisture from an atmospheric river will start to bring in heavier precipitation/ showers late Sunday. The heaviest showers in this storm are expected Monday and Tuesday. Coastal and inland neighborhoods can expect anywhere from 2-4" rain. Lighter rain may come all the way through to the weekend.
A Flood watch will also go into effect Sunday at 4pm for the entire county. Excessive runoff may result in flooding in low-lying and flood-prone locations. The ground is also saturated from recent storms, further elevating the chance of runoff and subsequent floods.
This storm is larger and slower-moving than the last one, increasing the risk. The National Weather Service predicts most of the county has at least a 40% chance of flooding Monday. In this map, that's anywhere shaded in red.
Make sure to prepare your home or business ahead of the new storm, and do not drive through flooded roadways.
High elevation snow is also expected in the mountains on Wednesday.
A Wind advisory is scheduled to go into effect Sunday. Southeast winds ranging from 15 to 25 mph. Wind gusts could reach up to 35 mph.
Sunday's Highs:
Coast: 63-67°
Inland: 63-67°
Mountains: 50-60°
Deserts: 62-66°
