LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- You may want to keep the rain boots and umbrellas out as the third storm to hit Southern California this week moves into the region Thursday morning, bringing more rain to areas previously affected.
Powerful thunderstorms, wind and rain battered the region just days ago, toppling over trees and leading to water rescues.
Get the latest storm timeline and developments from across the region below:
The third storm of the week is quickly moving into Southern California, bringing more rain and snow, but the region will soon get a break from the wet weather.
Light to moderate rail will continue to move east, with heavy downpours possible at times. Cold temperatures and gusty conditions with potentially damaging winds will remain even after the rain stops.
The widespread rain will begin to taper off by the early afternoon hours as it moves into the Inland Empire.
Residents near the Eaton Fire burn scar in Altadena are on alert Monday while an evacuation warning is in place for the area.
Fortunately over the past year, the burn scar has seen vegetation growth, with new grass and plants growing roots in the mud. This new growth could help mitigate debris flows with this storm.
ABC7 reporter Rob Hayes explains:
LAX has issued a ground stop for departing flights Monday as a powerful storm dumps heavy rain across the region.
The ground stop will stay in effect until at least noon. The storm is increasing the risk of thunderstorms and reducing visibility.
Check with your airline for any delays.
A Flash Flood Warning has been issued for portions of Los Angeles County as strong cell systems move across the area.
The warning, in effect until 2 p.m. Monday, impacts the Santa Monica Mountains, including the Palisades and Franklin burn scars. Surrounding areas such as Santa Monica, West Hollywood and Beverly Hills are impacted.
The National Weather Service says heavy rain in those places is increasing the chances for flash flooding on streets, highways, small creaks and streams and other areas with poor drainage.
The public is warned to not drive through flooded roads.
In additional to the heavy rain falling across the region, this storm is bringing strong winds
The National Weather Service has issued a Gale Warning for a large portion of the water off the coast of Southern California. It will remain in effect until 2 a.m. Tuesday.
Los Angeles County lifeguards say gusts up to 35 knots will create hazardous conditions.
"Mariners should alter plans, remain in port, and seek safe harbor" at least until the warning expires.
