The jet stream is going to be set up to bring rain and then give us another short break about mid week. Here is the new frontal system as it’s moving onshore into California. You can see the break in storms for Wednesday and Thursday that will last a very short time as the next storm system will be offshore and move in Friday. It looks like we might get another break from the rain early next week.
