The system, currently out in the Pacific, has a strong southerly jet influence to it.  The storm is set to hit on Friday.  Upper divergence and jet dynamics suggest that heavy rain is likely south and west of the mountains, bringing in over two inches of rain in a short period of time, with higher amounts in the foothills.  The system will be the strongest in three years.

Severity for thunderstorms is being looked into, however some of these heavy rainfall rates that will cause flooding might come with severe thunderstorm dynamics, in-which Southern California Weather Authority.com is fully capable of handling.
