Heavy to excessive rainfall and flash flooding will continue Friday along the West Coast.
A series of low pressure systems moving into the Western US combined with a steady flow of moisture will result in heavy to excessive rainfall from coastal British Columbia to Central California today and tonight. Much of Northern California will receive 3-6 inches of rain over the next 24 hours with some areas receiving as much as 8 inches. Elsewhere, a general 2-3 inches will be common with some areas receiving as much as 5 inches. Snowfall with this system will be confined to the highest elevations. Strong and gusty winds will also be common across the region with damaging winds possible in some areas.
