Wet weather is expected to start late Friday night and continue through Sunday morning.
The upcoming weekend storms, forecast to start late Friday night and continue through Sunday morning, aren't expected to pack as much punch as the last one, according to theRyan Kittell, a forecaster with the NWS, said 1-2 inches are expected for most of L.A. and Ventura counties with 2-4 inches possible in the mountains and foothills. Orange County is expecting around 1 inch of rain.
"The storm that we had earlier this week was basically something we see every 10 or so years," Kittell said."So the rest of the storms this winter will likely be similar to what we usually see. And this is a pretty standard storm over the weekend." He said there could still be minor flooding issues this weekend like roadway flooding and small creek runoff.
Bryan LaSota, spokesperson for the L.A. County Office of Emergency Management, encouraged people to be prepared in case things change. "We have seen it before that forecasts can change and the conditions can change drastically," LaSota said."So we do encourage everybody to take it seriously and to take those steps now to be prepared for it and to put plans in place."What questions do you have about the weather we're experiencing?Ask a QuestionThis story has been updated with details from The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power on rain water collection.
