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

An atmospheric river brought additional rain, strong winds, and flooding to the Bay Area Tuesday, with an increasing chance of thunderstorms later in the afternoon.

Heavy precipitation is falling mostly in mountain areas. A flood watch in also in effect for the coast of central California, including the San Francisco Bay Area and Sacramento Valley.

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