An atmospheric river storm that dumped record rain in Northern California is bringing decidedly less precipitation to Southern California."The whole thing weakened and moved down the coast," said Joe Sirard,

Rain has been in the forecast for Southern California all week long, but forecasters have spent the past few days trying to figure out just how much will fall and when. A low-pressure system will tap into an atmospheric river in the Pacific,

The effects of the so-called bomb cyclone storm on Southern California will be less dramatic compared with the north, weather forecasters say.

An atmospheric river over San Francisco is forecasted to push its way south over Friday night, creating a chance of showers in Southern California over the weekend. KTLA’s Vera Jimenez says the storm system will continue to diminish as it heads south,

While the extent of the rain remains unclear, we could see periods of rain from Saturday through the beginning of next week.

Southern California is experiencing warm weather with a cooling trend expected by the weekend and possible light rain and snow in some areas.

A "bomb cyclone" riding a long atmospheric river toward the West Coast is expected to bring more than a foot of rain to parts of Northern California and 30-foot waves to the Oregon coast, but the weather won't be quite as catastrophic in and around Los Angeles,
