PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood

Be aware of your surroundings and do not drive on flooded roads.

In hilly terrain there are hundreds of low water crossings which are 
potentially dangerous in heavy rain. Do not attempt to cross flooded 
roads. Find an alternate route.

Flooding is occurring or is imminent. It is important to know where 
you are relative to streams, rivers, or creeks which can become 
killers in heavy rains. Campers and hikers should avoid streams or 
creeks.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service San Diego CA
131 PM PDT Sat Aug 13 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
A monsoonal weather pattern will continue through next week,
leading to a daily risk of thunderstorms, mainly during the
afternoons over the mountains and deserts. Moisture levels will
be highest today with flash flooding possible over the mountains
and deserts. Little day to day temperature changes will occur
while humidity remains high.

&&

.DISCUSSION...FOR EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN CALIFORNIA INCLUDING ORANGE...
SAN DIEGO...WESTERN RIVERSIDE AND SOUTHWESTERN SAN BERNARDINO
COUNTIES...

Several powerful thunderstorms have erupted over the mountains so
far today. These will probably drift into adjacent deserts late
this afternoon. Individual thunderstorms are capable of dropping 1
to 2 inches per hour. The Flood Watch remains through 8 pm. If
you have any reports of flash flooding or other damage from
storms, please report it via Twitter @NWSSanDiego. Skywarn
activation continues for San Diego, Riverside and San Bernardino
Counties through 8 pm. Hot weather with temps exceeding 100
degrees will continue in the Inland Empire this afternoon,
supporting the heat advisory that expires at 8 pm. Temps will be
trimmed by only a couple degrees Sunday and for the coming week.
Moisture decreases for Sunday and Monday for fewer thunderstorms
during the afternoons in mountains and deserts. This looks to be
the pattern with little change through about Thursday, making for
a rather persistent forecast Sunday through Thursday. However,
we'll watch for a wildcard thunderstorm complex or some such
nocturnal thing that could materialize far out in the desert and
move into our region, such as last night's feature. These
adjustments may be needed on a day-to-day basis. On Friday and
Saturday, some guidance increases the moisture, and some of that
guidance increases it a lot. Other guidance maintains the status
quo. It's possible the precip chances edge westward to the coast
Friday and Saturday and the forecast precip amounts get larger.
The current forecast reflects a slight trend wetter and slightly
farther west of the mountains toward week's end. We've seen
guidance show a deep moisture surge by day 6 or 7 this pasts week,
and somehow subsequent model runs keep delaying it. We just have
to wait and see. In the meantime, we'll have similar weather,
though not quite as hot, for the next five days or so. Stay tuned
for any variations on this theme as they could be important.
