Light Rain Might Fall in Pasadena on Monday

A Pacific cold front could bring some light showers to Los Angeles County Monday, with a small risk of minor flooding or mudslides, forecasters said.

The National Weather Service predicted a chance of light rain, with rain possibly lingering into early Tuesday.

Cool and mostly dry weather is expected after that until Friday and Saturday, when more substantial rain is in the forecast. That weather event is not expected to be as strong as the heaviest storms that have hit the area so far this winter, with current forecasts calling for.75 to 1.5 inches of rain in the valleys.

Highs will generally be in the 60s throughout the week, with overnight lows in the 40s and 50s.
