Rain forecast ahead

The National Weather Service reports that another storm system is coming to the Southland this weekend. Right now forecast models show a weak system could hit Saturday night through Sunday, but a more powerful system will come Sunday night through Monday.

Right now current rainfall totals projected are 2 to 5 inches of rain from Sunday through Wednesday for coastal and valley areas and between 4 to 8 inches in the foothills and mountains.

Projected snow levels right now are in the 7,000 elevation range.

Weather forecasters say with the amount of rain we saw last week, significant hydrologic issues especially in the hills where more mudslides and rockslides could follow.

At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.

But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.

We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.

Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
