A winter storm could drop two inches of rain on much of the Central and South Coasts, with higher totals for some mountain areas.
The storm began moving onto the Central Coast Sunday afternoon.
The mountains of northwestern San Luis Obispo County could get up to five inches of rain. San Luis Obispo County is expected to get its heaviest rainfall before daybreak Monday. Santa Barbara County's strongest rain could come between 6 a.m. and noon Monday, with Ventura County getting the bulk of its rain between midday Monday and Monday evening.
The Santa Ynez Mountains could get up to four inches of rainfall. That's creating concern for the Alisal brush Fire burn area. There's a Flash Flood Watch in effect for the burn area from 6 a.m. until noon Monday.
An Evacuation Order is in effect for the Alisal Fire burn scar, bordered by the area west of Las Flores Canyon, east of Mariposa Reina, south of West Camino Cielo, and down to the ocean.
