Wettest day on record for January, 4th wettest day regardless of month for San Diego proper. No flooding issues for my area, but plenty of issues around the county, including downtown which I don't think I've seen flood to that level before. Seeing some chatter that things are favorable for additional atmospheric river events for the west coast over the next couple of weeks. I have too.. Ryan Maue on X was having a lively discussion with someone promoting an “ARK” storm.. 100” of rain in a months time.. I read it and was like, no. Then I reread it.. and apparently it’s not as far-fetched as one might think. IDK.. Maybe someone much smarter than me can shed some light on this “ARK” storm stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you were referring to scripture but here is what Gods Word says about another flood... Genesis 9:11 And I establish My covenant with you; and all flesh shall never again be cut off by the water of the flood, neither shall there again be a flood to destroy the earth.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmo09001 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 (edited) Yeah I’ve seen/read about the doomsday scenario and flooding prolonged ARs could theoretically bring, especially for the Central Valley. I don’t know nearly enough about how well something even close to this magnitude could be predicted. The Twitter noise is all nonsense and fear-mongering IMO. But I digress… AR events happen plenty along with west coast from October - March. They tend to be focused on the PNW and down thru Nothern CA. They can and do center on Southern California, but usually we’re getting the leftovers. Edited January 25 by rmo09001 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmo09001 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 San Diego fell on the low side of forecast for round 1. Still might get some scattered showers through tomorrow AM, but the .6" so far today is a good start to February. Round 2 early next week holds the great potential for 1.5-2"+ for me. Hoping we stay dry through the weekend to get a round and hike in! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sustained winds are expected 34-45kts.

For the Storm Warning, southwest winds 30 to 40 kt with gusts up to 60 kt and seas 17 to 22 ft expected. * WHERE...Waters from Point Pinos to Point Piedras Blancas 10- 60 NM. * WHEN...For the Hurricane Force Wind Warning, until 3 PM PST this afternoon. For the Storm Warning, from 3 PM this afternoon to 3 AM PST Monday. * IMPACTS...Extremely strong winds will cause hazardous seas which will likely capsize or damage vessels and severely reduce visibility. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... Mariners should remain in port, alter course, and/or secure the vessel for extreme conditions. The AFD mentions 80-90 mph gusts putting the Big Sur coast into the Hurricane wind warning. Spoiler Expect winds to ramp up in the next few hours, with locations along the Big Sur coast seeing around 80 mph gusts with 90 mph possible. The southern marine zones along the Big Sur Coast to 60 nautical miles out will peak around 80 kt gusts (roughly 90 mph) which put them in Hurricane Force Wind warning criteria. Winds around the rest of the Bay Area and Central Coast increase in the mid morning as the heavier rain arrives. Gusts as high as 80 mph are expected in the peaks and ridges. Some gusts of 70 mph could mix down to the surface, especially along coastal areas through the afternoon. Gusts so far - as of noon. Warning expires at 3am.

Moderators StretchCT Posted February 5 Author Moderators Share Posted February 5 (edited) A little closer in on the 24 hr rainfall. Keep in mind LA's annual rainfall totals usually 12-14". NYC sees about 44" of precip a year, so the equivalent would be 22" of rain in 24 hrs. Insane. Downtown Los Angeles received 4.10 inches of rain on Feb. 4, shattering the old record of 2.55 inches set in 1927, according to the National Weather Service. This was also the third-wettest February day and the 10th rainiest day in downtown L.A. since records began in 1877. Notable rain totals so far: Topanga Canyon: 10.80″ Stunt Ranch: 10.75″ Bel Air: 10.59″ Sepulveda Canyon: 10.45″ Woodland Hills: 10.40″ Porter Ranch: 8.04″ Agoura Hills: 7.82″ Beverly Hills: 7.24″ Downtown Los Angeles: 6.43″ Alhambra: 5.96″ source Edited February 5 by StretchCT 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler National Weather Service Los Angeles/Oxnard CA 600 AM PST Tue Feb 6 2024 ...THIRD WETTEST TWO-DAY RAINFALL IN DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES... ...NEARLY HALF OF THE AVERAGE SEASONAL RAINFALL OF LOS ANGELES HAS FALLEN IN TWO DAYS... ...SECOND DAY IN A ROW OF RECORD DAILY RAINFALL IN LOS ANGELES... Downtown Los Angeles received 2.93 inches of rain yesterday, February 5th, 2024. That set a record for the date, surpassing the previous record of 2.30 inches, set 123 years ago in 1901. Rainfall in Downtown Los Angeles on the 4th and the 5th totaled 7.03 inches. That is the third wettest consecutive two-day total since official weather records began in 1877. The record for most rainfall for two days in a row in Downtown Los Angeles is 7.98 inches on December 31st, 1933 and January 1st, 1934. The second highest two-day total is 7.44 inches on January 25th and 26th 1956. This is the highest two-day rainfall total for the month of February, smashing the previous record of 6.02 inches, on February 24th and 25th, 1913. The rainfall of 7.03 inches on the 4th and 5th is 49 percent of the 30-year average seasonal rainfall in Downtown Los Angeles (using data from 1991-2020), which is 14.25 inches. Rainfall for the month of February so far has totaled 8.72 inches. Through the 5th, February 2024 is now the 13th wettest February on record. The wettest February in Downtown Los Angeles was February 1998 during which 13.68 inches of rain fell. Total rain for the 2023-2024 water season in Downtown Los Angeles (officially October 1st through September 30th) stands at 13.95 inches, which is 6.27 inches above the normal of 7.68 inches through February 5th. It is also already 98 percent of the normal seasonal rainfall of 14.25 inches. Rainfall in Downtown Los Angeles on February 4th, 2024 totaled 4.10 inches, breaking the daily record of 2.55 inches set in 1927. Not only that, this daily rainfall total placed it in a tie with March 15th, 2003 as the 10th wettest calendar day (midnight to midnight local standard time) on record, a total of 53,544 days. The wettest calendar day since official weather records began in Downtown Los Angeles was March 2nd, 1938 when 5.88 inches of rain fell. Weather records in Downtown Los Angeles began on July 1st, 1877. February 4th, 2024 was the 3rd wettest calendar day in any month of February since 1878, and the wettest February calendar day in nearly 110 years. The wettest day in any February in Downtown Los Angeles was February 24th, 1913 on which 4.80 inches of rain was recorded.
