If you’ve been wondering what happened to our rainy season, the National Weather Service has your answer.

A very wet and windy weather pattern is setting up next week beginning late sunday night and lasting into the latter part of the week. A series of storms will set up over the pacific and push into california throughout the week.  The result of these storms will be strong winds with copious rain amounts…Along with large waves near the coast and heavy snow accumulation for higher elevations. Potential impacts from these storms include:

  • Urban and small stream flooding along with possible flash flooding and debris flows.  
  • High winds that can down trees and power lines producing power outages.  
  • Hazardous driving conditions due to very slippery road conditions.  
  • Dangerous near shore conditions due to high surf from large waves.
