"Showers moving into the region from the Central Coast should bring steady rain to Ventura and Los Angeles counties Thursday morning, with frosty temperatures pushing snow levels lower than normal, potentially impacting commuters along the Grapevine, according to the National Weather Service. "Steady precipitation will taper off to showers by late this afternoon and become confined to the mountains by late tonight," the weather service posted in a Thursday morning forecast."
"Since Monday, a series of storms has drenched much of California and dumped feet of snow in the Sierra. It's led to a deadly avalanche in the Sierra and a person dying in San Bernardino County when they were swept away in fast moving waters. While the worst of the storms has passed, people need to remain cautious while out in the slick and cold conditions, officials said."
