Isolated Showers Expected Before Storm System Leaves SD Region

SAN DIEGO COUNTY, CA – Southern California will dry off Thursday after two storm systems dropped light rain in San Diego and between one-tenth of an inch and six-tenths of an inch of rain in northern areas of the county, a National Weather Service forecaster said.

Isolated showers are expected in San Diego County Thursday morning before the storm system heads east Thursday afternoon, NWS forecaster Miguel Miller said.

Moisture from Hurricane Rosa -- now a tropical depression -- brought light rain to the region Monday and Tuesday before a separate low-pressure system brought showers and thunderstorms Wednesday.

San Diego received less than one-tenth of an inch of rain over the last three days, Miller said.

The storm dropped four-tenths of an inch of rain in Escondido, one- tenth of an inch in Poway, six-tenths of an inch in Encinitas and a half-inch of rain in Carlsbad over the last three days, according to the NWS.

The storm emanating from the remnants of Hurricane Rosa brought higher- than-normal surf levels to the coasts Saturday night, but the waves returned to normal by Tuesday, according to the National Weather Service.
