Some areas in northern California could see 4 inches of rain, with the Bay Area expecting 1 to 2 inches.

By Thursday morning, the heaviest rainfall will shift toward Los Angeles and Southern California, where at higher elevations snow is expected.

The storm is forecast to move east by Friday, triggering severe weather in the central U.S., from Minnesota all the way down to Texas. Damaging winds, hail and tornadoes are all possible.
