Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA weak, upper-level trough of low pressure moved through the West on the 16th, with scattered showers and high elevation snow. Showers lingered through the night, before a second, stronger trough moved through the region on the 17th. Showers increased in coverage and intensity with the second trough, behind a leading line of strong thunderstorms, with scattered thunderstorms behind it. Significant lightning activity occurred with this initial, organized line of thunderstorms between approximately 2200 PST on the 16th and 0400 PST on the 17th. Post-frontal showers continued, with a few reports of small hail, and a funnel cloud at Riverside March Field. Two-day rainfall totals varied widely with the coast and valley locations receiving between one-tenth and almost one inch of rain, but most saw between one-quarter and three-quarters of an inch. Coastal mountain slope locations received up to 1.3 inches of rain, while the deserts ranged from a few hundredths of an inch to one-third of an inch (highest amounts in the upper deserts). Several roads were closed due to flooding in San Marcos, Spring Valley and a mud/debris flow along Highway 91 in Corona. The snow level lowered to 4500-5000 feet, with two-day accumulations of up to 4 inches below 6000 feet and up to 10 inches between 6000-8000 feet.
