Happy Wednesday, Central Coast! We have made it halfway through the week and to the end of the "clear" section of our forecast!

Starting tomorrow morning, a large-scale system will arrive and bring heavy rain, winds, and the potential for thunderstorms.

As a quick note, due to the rain in the forecast, the Thursday Downtown SLO Farmers' Market has been canceled.

The storm will generate widespread 2-4 inches of rain starting Thursday through Saturday and possibly into early next week. Flooding of roadways and wildfire burn scars is possible.

A wind advisory will be in place from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Thursday for San Luis Obispo County and Santa Barbara County, excluding the South Coast.

I will keep you updated online and on air through the storm.
