Marie delivered steady rain and pounding surf to Southern California over the weekend, and forecasters say the former hurricane isn’t done yet.
Showers from Marie, which has been downgraded to a tropical storm, continued to flow into Los Angeles County on Monday morning.
Rain
Rain is likely to continue through at least Monday afternoon, with a 10% chance of thunderstorms, according to the National Weather Service.

Marie is expected to weaken over the next few days as it slowly moves toward New Mexico.
The storm will continue to generate southerly swells, creating an ongoing hazard at Southern California beaches, according to the Weather Service.
Surf
High surf and coastal flood advisories remain in effect until 11 p.m. for 4- to 8-foot surf along beaches in Los Angeles, Orange and Ventura counties. Larger waves are expected at south-facing beaches.
“There is an increased risk for ocean drowning. Rip currents will be widespread and very strong, potentially pulling swimmers and surfers out to sea,” the Weather Service said.
Lifeguards made dozens of rescues over the weekend, including a surfer who survived being swept up and over a jetty in Newport Beach.
Video provided by Newport Beach Lifeguards shows waves carrying the surfer onto jagged rocks as concerned beachgoers looked on.

“Thankfully, no one was injured,” Newport Beach Lifeguards wrote on social media. “These currents are no joke. Use caution and stay aware of changing ocean conditions.”
Heat
In addition to the high surf, forecasters are warning of advisory-level heat returning over the next few days.
A high-pressure ridge is expected to build in from the east, bringing a moderate to high heat risk to many areas by Wednesday.
Afternoon highs are expected to climb into the 90s and low 100s, with extremely humid conditions making temperatures feel even warmer.
A slight cooldown is possible by Friday.
