The coastal and valley communities can expect 1 to 2 inches of rainfall between Wednesday and Thursday.

"Heavy rainfall, damaging wind gusts and coastal surf impacts are expected to continue over coming days."

Eight hours of non-stop rainfall destroyed roads and bridges on Friday, flooding buildings and leaving large parts of the city without electricity.

Peak rainfall rates could reach between a tenth of an inch and a third of an inch per hour, with rain rates in some areas reaching half an inch per hour.

“In terms of rainfall amounts and snow amounts, it’s a pretty average system,” Munroe said about this week’s upcoming storm.
