A warm front will bring developing rain or showers today. The main event begins this evening with hours of steady rain.

Hours of mostly steady rain Tuesday into Wednesday morning will be heaviest Tuesday overnight as a low pressure center nears the coast and a cold front arrives into Wednesday morning. 60-hour rain totals during the event could bring 4” of rain to the coast, 2.50” to the I-5 corridor and 6” or more to the mountains. Snow levels will rise above 6,000 feet. Areas of high water will develop Tuesday. 6-8” of water in the Coast Range will likely cause some rivers to reach flood stage Tuesday overnight into Wednesday morning.

Rain will be heavy enough Monday night to cause high water spots Tuesday morning on area roadways.
