A new winter storm from the north will begin to impact southern California since this Sunday night with more intense rains in some parts of the region.

Even, according to meteorologists, the intensity of this winter storm could be more intense compared to what was recorded in recent dayswith the risk of flooding and strong winds that could cause power outages.

In some parts of Ventura County it will begin to rain as early as Monday morning; while in Los Angeles County, precipitation is expected to begin at approximately noon.

By Tuesday morning, rain will cover virtually all of southern Californiaconditions that will be maintained throughout the day, while Wednesday will have a drier environment.

This Sunday,. in Los Angeles County will register a maximum temperature of 63 degreesunder cloudy sky conditions and with the possibility of a light rain.

Heavy snowfall above 7,500 feet is expected in mountainous areas.

Wind gusts will be between 50 and 60 miles per hour on the central coast, while 60 to 70 miles per hour in the mountains, the NWS forecast.

On the beaches, meteorologists warn of high waves. Last week, these conditions led to beach closures and pier damage along the California coast from the bomb cyclone.
