It's no fun to drive in the rain, so either pick a nice place to stay for Wed/Thu during the storm, or postpone the trip. If you need to get south, just drive the 5, it shouldn't enough rain to flood it. The central valley flood alerts you are seeing are for rivers and small roads with stream crossings. Forecast there is only 1.5".
- dragonwriter 4y agoParts of 99 were closed (with at least one fatality) and I-5 threatend by the flooding this weekend; the next storm is bigger and will hit ground that is already saturated. The flood watch issued in the Valley for the upcoming storm is not just for rivers and small roads with stream crossings as you describe. > Forecast there is only 1.5". The Centrall Valley forecast for the storm is 2-3”, actually, per NWS Sacramento.

- sentientslug 4y agoJust drove the Grapevine yesterday with no issues even after all the recent rain. Is this storm going to affect the LA area as well?
- AlbertCory 4y agoIn the past there's been major snow. I haven't checked the weather this time.
