High surf and heavy winds are expected to accompany a rainstorm that is moving into the Southern California region Friday evening.
The National Weather Service issued a high surf advisory for local beaches, with waves of 10 to 12 feet or more expected.
Gusty southerly winds will accompany the storm, said meteorologist Curt Kaplan.
“It’s a very frustrating forecast,” Kaplan said. “The upper low is off the coast, and it will move down, but we won’t get as much rain as we probably should. The heaviest rain we see will be [Friday night] into Saturday morning.”
The showers are expected to continue throughout Saturday, generating up to 3/4 of an inch of rain. The region should be clear by Sunday, Kaplan said.
The weather service is also warning beachgoers about possible rip currents across area beaches and a slight chance of thunderstorms along the coast.
