Overview
- A low-pressure system centered over Northern California is delivering the heaviest rain to the North Bay, with 1–2 inches in lower elevations and up to 4 inches in the mountains.
- Forecasters note a risk of minor urban and small-stream flooding in the north, with a slight chance that larger rivers could reach minor flood stage.
- On the Central Coast, showers are isolated and mainly morning-based through Wednesday, with only light amounts and highs near 60 degrees.
- West-facing beaches face a High Surf Advisory through 9 p.m. Monday with 10–12 foot breakers and dangerous rip currents, and a Beach Hazard Statement runs through 10 a.m. along the South Coast.
- Local officials are urging people to stay out of the ocean due to runoff-related bacteria, and hazardous coastal water conditions are expected to linger even after skies clear later this week.
