this could be the big one

Still no sun--people are out the ledge, preparing to jump... As for me, i'm going to go out and buy some hatches and batten them down.

Weekend of rain coming, but in small doses

SAN DIEGO – A little bit or rain could go a long way this weekend. It could both cleanse the air and reduce worries about debris flows in recent burn areas.

A weak low-pressure system moving into Central California could bring drizzle or light rain Friday. Rainfall amounts should be just a few hundredths of an inch. Saturday is expected to be cool and partly cloudy.

Another minor but slightly stronger storm is on the first system's heels. It should arrive Sunday afternoon, and National Weather Service forecasters say it could bring about one-tenth of an inch of rain at the coast and a quarter-inch in the mountains.
