LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Southern California is making the switch from red flag conditions to rainfall this weekend with showers, mountain snow and a big cool down, prompting concerns over debris flow and mudslides.
A red flag warning will remain in effect through 10 a.m. Friday for most of Los Angeles and Ventura counties due to extremely low humidity and offshore wind gusts. Humidity will be extremely low with minimums under 10% and poor overnight recovery.
Rain is expected Saturday and Sunday, bringing a quarter to half of an inch of rain to the area. The Palisades Fire area could see about half an inch of rain Friday, as well as the Eaton Fire area. There is also a chance of rain on Monday.
Some areas may see some light, scattered drizzle Saturday night. By around 7:20 a.m. Sunday, the region will see some widespread showers, but it will be mostly light rain, on and off.
By Sunday afternoon into Monday morning, that's when we'll start to see some rain and snow in the mountains. Some thunderstorms are possible on Sunday in the Los Angeles area.
Monday afternoon will see some scattered showers, and then the rain is set to move out of the area by Tuesday.
Most of the Southland will likely see anywhere between 1/2 an inch to 3/4 of an inch of rainfall from this storm.
The San Gabriel mountain area will see anywhere between 1 to 2 inches of rain.
The Valleys and Inland Empire regions may see anywhere between 1/2 of an inch to an inch of rain.
Los Angeles and Orange counties will be partly sunny but cooler with a high of 70 amid red-flag conditions.
