Southern Californians are hit with rain and snow again, but isolated thunderstorms could bring chances of flash flooding, hail or a tornado.
Southern Californians have been hit Wednesday with another round of rain and snow, with precipitation picking up later in the day, prompting concerns about possible flooding, landslides and even a tornado. The biggest threat from the system is unpredictable, severe thunderstorms, which could bring flash flooding in the afternoon and evening to some communities along the coast and valleys, with a flood advisory in effect through 8 p.m.
'In the thunderstorms, there could be rain rates up to an inch per hour — a heavy downpour,” said Rose Schoenfeld, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Oxnard. That would be isolated to a limited number of areas, she said, but it's hard to predict exactly where or when the storms would hit.
