About three quarters of an inch of rainfall (about 2 cm) fell in the coastal region of Orange, up to one inch (2,54 cm) fell in the Island Importer and parts of Los Angeles County.

Adam Roser, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service, called the storm “a kind of favorable rainfall” that brought the necessary moisture.

“It’s definitely a light storm,” Roser said. “It’s good because there hasn’t been a lot of rainfall or flooding.”

The next storm is expected to approach the state late in the evening on Wednesday, March 25, and will last until Thursday, which will lead to cold weather and rain.

“We're still expecting the storm to continue,” said Kristen Stewart, another meteorologist with the National Weather Service.

According to weather forecasts, on Thursday, March 26, about 2 inches of precipitation (5,08 cm) can fall on elevations. After relatively dry January and February, rainfall in March is expected to be approximately average for this time of year.

For some Southern California residents who stayed home to avoid the coronavirus, the storm eased the situation.

If all was well, David Alpern would be on the street watching his son, a university baseball player in Long Beach. But the weather would cancel these games anyway.

“The rain made things easier,” Alpern said.

Alpern's neighbors do not complain about rain either.

“We're lucky to be here in Southern California where the weather is comfortable,” neighbors said.

Bernie Berndt of Riverside agreed—he would be home, too.

“It rained quite heavily this morning,” he said. “But I still need to be at home.”

Rain wouldn't have stopped Torrance's Dolly Rami from going outside—but the coronavirus did.

As a volunteer at Zazzy Cats Kitty Rescue on Long Beach, Rami focused on raising a little kitten, as well as cleaning her house, cooking home food and chatting with friends over the phone and social networks.

“The rain doesn’t keep me at home,” Rami said. “If it weren’t for the coronavirus, I would be on the street.”

It is expected that an early spring blizzard will shift off the coast of southern New England and about 6 million people will be in the area of ​​the storm. Writes about it CNN.

Adirondack, Berkshire, Catskills, Green and White Mountains expects heavy snow, in some places more than 6 inches (15 cm). According to meteorologist Monica Garrett, there can be more than 2,5 inches (6,35 cm) in the lowlands, and up to an inch of snow (2,54 cm) can be observed in the lowlands from New Jersey to Connecticut.

Mid-Atlantic states may not be affected by snow, but heavy rains are expected here. According to Garrett, in coastal cities, including New York (New York) and Boston (Massachusetts), it will mostly rain with possible snow.

The European model predicts that the storm will be stronger and will move closer to the northeast coastline. This will increase snowfall in the interior of the Northeast, increase rainfall in large coastal cities, and increase winds. In the central regions of the northeast, 6 to 12 inches (15-30 cm) of spring snow are possible. Coastal areas expect 1 to 3 inches (2,54-7,62 cm) of rain, which can lead to flooding.

A weaker storm further off the coast will result in less snow, rain and lighter winds in the Northeast. The only areas with snow are the higher elevations of the Green, White and Adirondack Mountains.

Despite the fact that this is a fast-moving storm that will hit the United States on Tuesday, March 24, for most territories, there is a chance of snow on Wednesday, March 25.
