LOS ANGELES, CA — Back-to-back storms will bring much-needed rain to Southern California this week followed by a chance of rain again early next week.
The cold storms from the Gulf of Alaska are also likely to provide a dusting of snow to local mountains, according to the National Weather Service. Daytime highs in Hollywood are expected to linger in the low 60s.
Though the precipitation is unlikely to alleviate the drought, it's a welcome change on the heels of the driest November in decades in Los Angeles.

The first storm system is expected to bring a chance of rain as early as Tuesday morning. Thursday's storm is expected to pack more of a punch, though neither storm is likely to deliver even an inch of rain to Los Angeles.
"Not much for us, but it all helps," tweeted the National Weather Service.
