LOS ANGELES, CA — It will be another wet weekend for Los Angeles as the first of two storms is set to move in Friday evening, bringing the risk of minor flooding and mudslides.

Unlike the midweek storm, this one is expected to bring lots of rain — as much as two inches over the course of the weekend, according to the National Weather Service. It'll be followed up by another storm system Tuesday.

It's been a wet winter for the Southland with a series of atmospheric-river driven storms eliminating drought conditions across the state.
