Relentless storms continue to soak Golden State with rain, mountain snow

By Brandon Buckingham, AccuWeather Meteorologist

While California will not receive a soaking rain similar to what occurred at the beginning of the week, residents across the state can expect unsettled weather to stick around through Wednesday.

As the storm system came ashore Sunday evening across Southern California, moderate to heavy rain targeted included places like Los Angeles, Santa Maria, and San Luis Obispo.

Los Angeles International Airport received 1.73 inches of rain late Sunday, nearly matching their average rainfall for all of March of 1.85 inches.

Already the next storm in the series was causing rain to overspread Northern California on Tuesday eventually work its way down the coast into portions of Southern California by late Tuesday night.

This time, the steadiest rain and snow will target the northern half of the state.

The bulk of the wet weather is expected to target the coastal Pacific Northwest.

This storm system isn't expected to bring blockbuster rain or snow totals across California, but as the rainy season begins to come to an end, any additional moisture is beneficial.

Along with the threat for wet weather, temperatures will likely be shaved a few degrees below average statewide into midweek.

As the storm system slowly tracks along the West coast, showery weather is expected to continue through at least Wednesday in California. Depending on how much energy is left within the storm, scattered showers could continue through Thursday before drier weather returns for the end of the week.
