With the ground still saturated from the last week\u2019s atmospheric river<\/a>, another Pacific storm is headed for Southern California, promising significant rainfall.<\/p>\n

Rain will begin Tuesday evening along the Central Coast and gradually shift eastward, according to the National Weather Service<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The heaviest precipitation is expected to hit metro Los Angeles Wednesday night, New Year\u2019s Eve and New Year\u2019s Day. Peak rainfall rates will range from 0.25 to 0.50 inches per hour, with heavier isolated downpours, the Weather Service said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis will be the period of heaviest rainfall with this storm, but likely still at least 50% lighter than the last event,\u201d meteorologists said.<\/p>\n

Projected rainfall totals are expected to range from 1.25 to 1.5 inches through New Year\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n

Those planning to attend the Rose Parade<\/a> in Pasadena should be prepared to get wet.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe chances of a wet New Year\u2019s Parade, including the night before when people camp out, are extremely high \u2014 80% to 90% at this point,\u201d the Weather Service said.<\/p>\n

The last time it rained on the Rose Parade was in 2006.<\/p>\n

There will be a break in steady rainfall Thursday night into Friday, with just scattered light showers. Then, another cold front from the northwest is likely to bring additional rain.<\/p>\n

\u201cRound two moves into the area Friday into Saturday,\u201d KTLA weather anchor Kacey Montoya said. The amount of rain expected with the second round is still uncertain.<\/p>\n
