Topline:

A late season storm is expected to blow into Los Angeles and Ventura counties with light rain, wind gusts and cooler weather starting Tuesday, according to the National Weather Service.

What’s coming: Most of the L.A. region can expect up to a quarter inch of rain, with most of the rainfall coming midday Tuesday and into the evening. Temperatures are expected to be below normal on Tuesday and Wednesday, and gusty winds are expected through Friday.

Areas with heavier rain: San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara Counties are likely to see heavier rains of up to 1 inch. Northern parts of San Luis Obispo County have a 10% to 20% chance of thunderstorms, according to the National Weather Service.

Later in the week: Temperatures are expected to rise back into the 70s on Friday, before a second storm system comes through over the weekend, bringing a chance of more rain and temperatures in the 60s.

One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere. LAist is now 100% community funded and that means we’re taking our future into our own hands and turning to you to keep local reporting strong.
