南加州周三至周四将迎来较强风暴：普遍降雨1至3英寸，高浪与海岸洪水或持续整周
美国国家气象局（NWS）洛杉矶/奥克斯纳德办公室11月15日上午发布西南加州天气预报：第二个天气系统将于周三至周四夜给南加州带来一场较强风暴，全区普遍降雨1至3英寸，局地最大雨强可超过每小时0.5英寸，高浪与轻至中度海岸洪水可能持续下周大半周。
在这场较强风暴到来之前，南加州今天正处在两场风暴之间。气象局表示，今天以多云为主、没有降雨、风力轻缓，西南 Santa Barbara 县午后至晚间有局部北风15至25英里/小时，其余地区风速在10英里/小时以下，湿度保持在50%以上。
第一个弱系统将于周一移入、持续到周二初，降雨量预计不足0.25英寸，其中 San Luis Obispo 县沿海雨量相对最高。系统过后将刮起西北风，风速20至35英里/小时，中央海岸与 Santa Barbara 县南部风势较为明显。
周三登场的第二个系统强度明显更大，除平原与海岸地区普遍降雨1至3英寸外，还将给山区带来降雪。气象局的预报范围涵盖 Malibu 海岸、洛杉矶县海滩与内陆海岸（包括洛杉矶市中心）、Ventura 县海岸与内陆等地区。
南加州上周刚经历一轮风暴天气，11月14日风暴登陆时，Wilmington 一带绕行道淹水困住多辆车，Santa Monica 夜间出现雷声并伴有停电。

Stronger Storm to Bring 1 to 3 Inches of Rain to Southern California Wednesday Into Thursday, With High Surf and Coastal Flooding
The National Weather Service (NWS) office in Los Angeles/Oxnard issued its southwestern California forecast on the morning of November 15: a second weather system will bring a more significant storm to Southern California Wednesday through Thursday night, with rain amounts of 1 to 3 inches common across the region, peak rainfall rates locally exceeding half an inch per hour, and a long duration of high surf and minor to moderate coastal flooding likely to continue through much of next week.
Ahead of that storm, Southern California sits between systems today. The Weather Service said today will be partly cloudy with no rain and generally light winds, with local north winds of 15 to 25 mph across southwestern Santa Barbara County this afternoon and evening, winds under 10 mph elsewhere, and humidities remaining above 50 percent.
A first, weak system will move into the area Monday into early Tuesday, with rain amounts expected to stay under a quarter inch and the highest amounts across coastal San Luis Obispo County. Gusty northwest winds of 20 to 35 mph will develop behind the system, especially along the Central Coast and in southern Santa Barbara County.
The second system arriving Wednesday will be considerably stronger, bringing mountain snow in addition to the widespread 1 to 3 inches of rain across lower elevations and coastal areas. The forecast covers the Malibu Coast, Los Angeles County beaches and the inland coast including downtown Los Angeles, and the Ventura County coast and inland valleys.
Southern California is coming off a round of stormy weather last week: when a storm moved ashore on November 14, flooding on a Wilmington-area detour route trapped several vehicles, and Santa Monica saw nighttime thunder with power outages.
