Our holiday week storm brought widespread rain to our communities, especially on Wednesday. <\/p>\n
Bakersfield set a new single-day rainfall record on Wednesday, receiving 0.97″ of rain. Preliminary rainfall reports show around 4 inches of rain fell near Frazier Park between Tuesday night and Wednesday. <\/p>\n
Thanks to the heavy rainfall earlier this week, even though the rain is a lot more scattered on Friday, we still remain under a flood watch through Friday night. <\/p>\n
The big takeaway for Friday is the rain will be less widespread. Scattered showers and minor thunderstorm chances remain through Friday afternoon. Watch out for wet roadways and a chance for localized flooding. <\/p>\n
Again, thanks to the heavy rain earlier this week, additional rainfall onto the freshly saturated ground could cause potential runoff, rockslides, and other flooding concerns. <\/p>\n
On the tail end of the storm system, by Friday night, temperatures will be much cooler. We’re seeing snow levels drop to as low as 4,500′, meaning there’s a chance for snowflakes in our mountain towns. Accumulating snow is not expected on the mountain passes, though the cold temperatures could mean an icy start to Saturday. <\/p>\n
Rain chances dry up this weekend. We’re keeping an eye on another storm system to begin the new year next week. <\/p>\n
