Saturday night the chance of rain increases to 100%, mainly before 10 p.m., according to the National Weather Service. The low is forecasted as 43 degrees.  

“We’re in a wet period,” said National Weather Service meteorologist Kristen Stewart. “The jet stream is opening up the door for storms to roll through, so we have that storm that’s up north that’ll start moving down our way this weekend and then another one will follow on its heels on Wednesday.” 

Ready LA County advises the following precautionary measures to be taken in response: heed all instructions from emergency responders and emergency alert notifications, drive cautiously and slow down and do not attempt to cross flooded areas and never enter moving water.
