Forecasters say we're in for a big storm on Friday - one that will bring us the amount of rainfall we usually get in a month - all in one day.

Thursday's rainfall was just a drop in the bucket compared to what's coming.

"Everyone's going to see two to four inches of rain it looks like," said Alex Tardy, Operational Meteorologist with the National Weather Service. "And not over several days - in about a 24-hour to 36-hour period."

Add high winds to the mix and we're in for some debris blowing around, localized flooding and big surf along the coast. We might even see some water spouts in the ocean.
