A cold but mostly dry storm is blasting California with winds and some showers Friday, but forecasters say the weather should mostly clear up by the weekend.
High winds continued to blast across Southern California on Friday, as a cold storm moved across the state, forecast to also bring some showers, thunderstorms and mountain snow — and the potential for power outages and hazardous air quality. The quick-moving system is expected to clear out of the region by Saturday morning, making way for a warmer and more clear weekend, according to the National Weather Service.
Forecasters advised that 'damaging winds could blow down trees and power lines. Widespread power outages are possible. Travel will be difficult, especially for high profile vehicles.' Across Los Angeles County coasts and valleys, winds were expected to reach 20 to 45 mph Friday afternoon and evening, triggering a wind advisory through 9 p.m. In these areas, the weather service warned that 'gusty winds will blow around unsecured objects.
