LOS ANGELES, Dec. 18 (Xinhua) -- The western U.S. state of California is set to brace a week of rains, winds and possible thunderstorms this week, as meteorologists warn of flooding and travel disruptions.
A weather system will bring periods of moderate to heavy rain and high elevation snow through mid-week, according to the latest forecast of the U.S. National Weather Service (NWS) Sacramento.
Scattered showers are also moving across Southern California, according to NWS Los Angeles.
