Most of the county experiences lighter rainfall for the early evening hours, before a surge coming around midnight. Forecast models predict the most rainfall from about 11 p.m. to 6 a.m., with coastal and inland areas expecting anywhere from .25-.75" additional rainfall. The risk of heavy, destructive showers remains very low as a flood advisory sticks around until 10 Wed. morning.
By Wednesday afternoon, we'll be mostly dry.
Gusty winds will target the mountains and deserts through Wednesday with southwest and westerly gusts of 30 to 45mph.
A High Surf Advisory continues until 10 pm Tuesday for waves of 6 to 9' and sets of 10 to 12'. Tidal overflow and minor beach erosion will be possible during high tide each morning, and we could see low-lying boardwalks and parking lots flooding.
This is a relatively warm storm, so snow is not likely in the mountains, but a light dusting can't be ruled out for the highest peaks Tuesday night into Wednesday morning.
Showers taper off during the day Wednesday, turning dry by Thursday, with a warm-up Friday and Saturday.
A colder storm could bring another round of showers Sunday into Monday, and we may see more mountain snow.
Stay with the Pinpoint Weather Team as we see these storms as they roll through San Diego.
