The first weekend of September brings the potential for light rain<\/a> as the effects of Hurricane Marie reach into Southern California.<\/p>\n

Marie, one of three hurricanes<\/a> brewing over the Pacific, was expected to remain well away from California<\/a> with forecasts indicating the system will turn toward the northwest. Marie\u2019s impacts will likely be felt in Southern California this weekend as the system weakens.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cMarie will not make a direct impact here, but will bring humidity and rain,\u201d said NBC4 meteorologist Shanna Mendiola. Our best chance for rain is Sunday. We\u2019re looking at the potential for light rain over our local mountains and desert locations. These are going to be pockets of rain. Not everyone is going to see this. We\u2019re calling this an off-and-on chance until (Sunday) afternoon, and then it start moving on out.\u201d<\/p>\n

Expect moderate rain, gusty winds, rough surf and moderate humidity. <\/p>\n

\u201cRemember last week how muggy it was? That\u2019s what we\u2019re going to see this weekend,\u201d said Mendiola. \u201cIt\u2019s going to feel tropical out there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Conditions could change, depending on Marie\u2019s track.\u00a0Maximum sustained winds were near 100mph Friday morning. The system may strengthen Friday, but was expected to gradually begin weakening on Saturday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A large southerly swell generated by the hurricane is expected to affect beaches from Friday through Tuesday, with the swell likely peaking Sunday and Monday. Elevated surf is expected at south-facing beaches, along with very strong rip currents. The weather service has issued a high surf advisory and coastal flood advisory from 6 a.m. Saturday through 11 p.m. Tuesday for portions of the Los Angeles County coast.<\/p>\n

Evening high tides of around 7 feet are expected during portions of the event, increasing the potential for moderate flooding in low-lying coastal areas and significant beach erosion, forecasters said. Malibu, Long Beach’s Alamitos Peninsula and Avalon were identified among the areas most susceptible to the combination of elevated surf and high tides.<\/p>\n

Moisture associated with Marie is expected to begin increasing humidity Saturday, with a slight chance of showers developing Saturday night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The first weekend of September brings the potential for light rain as the effects of Hurricane Marie reach…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":453494,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[5027,20631,48,52,51,47,50,49,19],"class_list":["post-453493","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles","tag-extreme-weather","tag-hurricanes","tag-la","tag-la-headlines","tag-la-news","tag-los-angeles","tag-los-angeles-headlines","tag-los-angeles-news","tag-weather"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/453493","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=453493"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/453493\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/453494"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=453493"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=453493"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=453493"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
