Wet weather continues through the week. Short-lived break today. Additional rounds of rain return Tuesday morning. Confidence is increasing for periods of stronger winds as well overnight Tuesday/Wednesday, and again early Thursday morning. Given the periods of rain and higher humidity this week, no fire weather concerns are expected. Note : All winds are 20-foot Winds Unless otherwise specified. Thunderstorms imply strong, gusty and erratic winds. ...Discussion from Los Angeles/Oxnard... ...STRONG STORM SYSTEM WILL IMPACT THE AREA TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY... ...FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FOR ALL AREAS TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH THURSDAY EVENING... A major storm will bring several inches of rain to the area creating significant hydrologic issues including widespread flooding, debris flows in recent burn scars, mudslides and swift water rescues. The heaviest period of rain is expected between midnight tonight through Wednesday afternoon. During this time hourly rain rates between one half and one inch (0.50-1.00) are expected with isolated rates as high as 1.50 inches per hour. The highest rates are expected to mostly be in the mountains of Santa Barbara, Ventura, and Los Angeles Counties, but very heavy rates can occur anywhere. There is also a very small threat for severe weather including small tornados, mainly south of Pt Conception. Rain rates will increase again on Christmas Day with brief periods of heavy rain but generally less intense than Wednesday. Showers are likely again Friday and possibly into Saturday but rates during those days are expected to be on the lighter side. Rain totals through Saturday are expected to range from 4-8 inches across coastal and valley areas with 6-12 inches across the foothills and mountains. Along with the rain, gusty southeasterly winds will impact the area. Wind gusts from 40-80 MPH will be likely across the area with the strongest winds across the mountains. With the soil becoming saturated there will be the potential for downed trees and power lines. $$ ECC028-241615- Santa Barbara County excluding Los Padres National Forest- Discussion for Santa Barbara ECC Dispatch 205 PM PST Tue Dec 23 2025 ...STRONG STORM SYSTEM WILL IMPACT THE AREA TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY... ...FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FOR ALL AREAS TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH THURSDAY EVENING...
