California will be hit by what National Weather Service officials call a life-threatening rain event beginning Wednesday. Here is a breakdown of what to expect over the next few days:
Rain expected to batter northern region of the state Wednesday and continue through at least Friday.
In the Sacramento Valley and northern San Joaquin Valley, forecasters are expecting at least 2 inches of rain, with upward of 3 inches in some places. The foothills could get anywhere from 2 to 5 inches of rain, said Scott Rowe, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Sacramento. A flood watch will be in effect for virtually all of the Sacramento Valley from Wednesday to Friday mornings.
Starting Wednesday, the Bay Area could see 2 to 4 inches of rain in the lower elevations, with 3 to 6 inches in the coastal hills, said Ryan Walbrun, a weather service meteorologist in Monterey. A strong storm system & atmospheric river will bring widespread moderate to heavy rainfall & strong winds to the region from Wed-Thurs. This will increase the threat for widespread flooding and wind damage across the Bay Area & Central Coast.
