Rainy, wet weather is expected to continue this week through Thursday.
The National Weather Service reports that the coasts and valleys in L.A. could receive one-half to one inch of rain starting Monday afternoon, with more hitting the mountain regions.
Up to 10 inches of snow could land in the San Gabriel Mountains and one-to-two inches could fall on the Grapevine later today. Wind advisories are also in place for parts of L.A. County and beyond.
Tomorrow's storm system will once again pack strong winds in the mountains and interior, where wind gusts of 40-55 mph can be expected. Wind advisories issued for San Luis Obispo County Interior Vlys/Mtns, Cuyama Valley, and Antelope Valley. #LAwind #LAWeather #SLOWeather #cawx

Precipitation should lift Tuesday, but return Wednesday and Thursday. In addition to the rain and snow, temperatures are likely to stay low.
"Even some of the highs on Tuesday, the high temperatures will remain into the 50s, which is very cold for Los Angeles," said Todd Hall of the NWS.
As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.
Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.
We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.
No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.
Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.
Thank you for your generous support and believing in independent news.
