Lake Henshaw, California

... Potential for wet weather across California next week...

A series of weather systems are forecast to affect California next
week.

The first system is expected to bring mostly light rain and snow to
the region Sunday into early Tuesday. Stronger storms are possible
later in the week as the jet stream sets up across the central
Pacific. While it looks likely that Southern California will get
rain and snow next week... the amount of rain will depend of the
storm track. The farther south the track... the more precipitation we
will get. A storm track into central California will bring less rain
to southern parts of the state.

These storms will bring the potential for strong winds... significant
rain and snow... and large surf along the coast by the second half of
the week. Dangerous boating and surf conditions are possible then.

Stayed tuned for further updates on this developing weather event.

A series of Pacific storms is forecast to make landfall across
California next week.

The first storm is forecast to arrive Monday or Tuesday. A second
