Rain Exits, Evacuation Warnings Lifted

CITY NEWS SERVICE

Clouds are expected to linger over the Southland Tuesday, along with a slight chance of light showers, but forecasters said conditions should dry out by mid-week.

Forecasters said the region should have “relatively benign weather” for the balance of the week, with partly to mostly cloudy skies continuing with a slight chance of rain Tuesday evening.

“Partly to mostly cloudy conditions will persist through Tuesday,” said the National Weather Service. “There will be a chance of light showers through tonight, mainly north of Point Conception. For Wednesday through the upcoming weekend, dry conditions are expected. For Friday through the weekend, warmer conditions are expected with moderate Santa Ana winds.”

By Sunday, temperatures could be 3 to 6 degrees above normal.

“As for rain chances, there could be some light rain in some areas, especially across the Central Coast, but amounts will be light (under 0.10 inches),” according to the NWS. “By Wednesday, the low will be far enough south to diminish cloud cover and keep any rain south of Los Angeles County.”

With the threat of rain diminished, authorities on Monday lifted all evacuation warnings and orders that had been in effect near recent burn areas due to the threat of possible mudslides or debris flows.
