A low pressure system from the west will be weakening as it moves
through southern California bringing a chance for showers for

track of that system.

Through Friday evening, rainfall and liquid-equivalent above the

coast to one-quarter to one-half inch in the mountains with
locally greater amounts. The snow level will fall to around 6500
feet on Friday with an inch or two of snowfall possible above 7000
feet.

There will be periods of stronger and gusty southwest to west
