As for the upcoming storm, officials are warning people to stay off the road if you can and reconsider any outdoor plans you might have on Thursday. That's when the peak of this storm is projected to reach Los Angeles.

Officials say we could see anywhere between 1.5 to 3 inches of rain for most areas, brining a moderate risk of flooding in debris flow areas.
