A new atmospheric river will bring a new rainstorm to the Los Angeles area in the middle of the week, forecasters say.

The rain will be spread over several days, potentially dropping up to an inch and a half of precipitation, according to the National Weather Service.

Days after an atmospheric river brought record-setting rainfall to California, the state is in the crosshairs of another rainy storm system.

The first storm from the tail end of an atmospheric river brought light to moderate rain throughout the Los Angeles area.
