The Los Angeles area is preparing for a series of storms this week, starting with light to moderate rain on Wednesday, followed by heavier rainfall on Thursday. There's a slight possibility of thunderstorms Wednesday night. Rainfall totals are expected to reach 1-3 inches in mountainous regions and 0.5-1 inch along the coast. Notably, significant snowfall of 6-12 inches is predicted in higher elevations. Concerns exist for burn scar areas due to potential flooding and debris flows. The state's current snowpack is reported at 85% of average for this time of year.
"There's a one-two punch where we'll have periods of light to moderate rain for most of the area on Wednesday and then Thursday will have more moderate rainfall."
"In terms of rainfall amounts and snow amounts, it's a pretty average system."
"The heavy rain could be a concern for recent burn scar areas, which could lead to minor flooding and shallow debris flows."
"Between 6 to 12 inches of snow is possible in elevations 5,500 feet and higher."
