Rain continues Tuesday for already-drenched Southern California

Another morning of heavy rain is expected across most of Southern California on Tuesday with showers hopefully to tapering off later in the afternoon.

“We’re still looking at wet conditions, a little more on-again-off-again through Ventura and Santa Barbara [counties]. More of a steady go of rain is forecast for those of you in Orange County, the I.E. and L.A. this morning,” KTLA Meteorologist Henry DiCarlo said.

Most of the rain should fall in the mountain and foothill locations Tuesday. “We get much more up against the foothills as we push that moisture through,” Henry said.

A glance at Tuesday’s storm outlook is provided by the National Weather Service.

As of Monday night, several areas had already been soaked with several inches of rain.

Here are the updated rainfall totals for parts of SoCal as of 8 p.m. Monday:

San Marcos Pass: 10.86″
Porter Ranch: 2.95″
Bel Air: 2.86″
Leo Carrillo: 2.37″
Beverly Hills: 2.19″
Woodland Hills: 1.80″
Santa Monica: 1.79″

Although showers should lighten up in most areas Tuesday afternoon, there will still be a “localized severe weather threat late Tue-Tue night” with a 20% chance of thunderstorms, the National Weather Service stated.

The saturated grounds have already given way in many locations with mudslides closing a portion of the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu.

Residents in Rancho Palos Verdes are calling on California Governor Gavin Newsom to declare a statewide emergency as the land continues to shift throughout the seaside community.

Snow levels have remained rather high with this week’s storm, remaining mostly above 7,500 feet. That level could fall to around 6,000 feet by Tuesday afternoon.

The Weather Service is expecting drier conditions to return Wednesday morning but has kept a lingering chance of rain in the forecast.

By Friday, we are looking for plenty of afternoon sunshine, Henry said.
