The latest storm continues crawling across our state, with on and off shower through Thursday.
The latest atmospheric river is done, so showers will be spotty and scattered in nature. The slow moving storm will keep the chance for rain on Thursday, and possibly Friday for the mountains. However, most of the county should be dry by the end of the week.
Rainfall totals average from 1.23" in San Diego to over 2 inches in Oceanside, Escondido, and Otay. Palomar has seen over 4 inches of rain and 2 inches of snow, while Mount Laguna picked up 5 inches of snow.
Additional rain for tonight into tomorrow will add another 0.25 to 0.75", additional snow will range from 1-3" in above 5,000 feet.
The winds will remain a factor in the mountains and deserts, with gusts over 40mph.
A High Surf Advisory is in effect until 9pm Thursday for waves of 4 to 9 feet and sets up to 12 feet along with dangerous rip currents. Remember you should avoid going in the water due to bacteria runoff from the rain until 72 hours after the rain.
Temperatures will improve for the weekend with morning clouds giving way to sunshine. Despite the minor warm up, daytime highs will remain about 10 degrees below normal. It should warm up a bit more on Monday and Tuesday, ahead of the next chance for rain.
Right now it looks like rain could begin late Tuesday, lasting through the end of next week with colder air and mountain snow.
Wednesday's Highs:
Coast: 57-61°
Inland: 53-60°
Mountains: 34-49°
Deserts: 63-67°
