The southern branch jet stream is about to become active as the ridge over the Northeast Pacific breaks down, which will bring storms back to California, and even finally heavy rainfall to Southern California, which has had extremely below normal rainfall amounts this year, making it the driest year in recorded history.
The start of the storm train will hit California all at once starting this Wednesday. This will hit Central and Northern California harder, and Southern California less. However this system on one computer model wants to be weaker … but judging by the current track of the system will likely be a slightly stronger one than modeled across Southern California so rainfall increasing by Wednesday into Wednesday night is extremely likely.

Have you ever heard the koan: what’s the sound of one hand clapping? It’s the same sound as the former DEA administrator, Peter Bensinger, wailing that marijuana legalization is a ‘disaster.’ His voice is a lonely one.
The man is an anti-drug crusader who served three former presidents, but forgot that our founding fathers grew Cannabis, that the most important documents of this country were written on hemp paper, as were almost 90% of all others before 1883, and that the ‘perils’ of pot, or medical marijuana use, are about as real as his imaginary job was ‘defending’ the nation from marijuana users.
