At 1245 PM PDT, Doppler weather RADAR was indicating scattered 
showers and isolated thunderstorms over the mountains of Ventura 
and Santa Barbara Counties and the Ventura County valleys, 
including the Thomas Fire burn area. The showers and thunderstorms
over the mountains were slowly moving southeast about 5 mph. 
Locally heavy rain with one-hour rainfall rates up to one quarter 
inch have been observed, although instantaneous rates over one 
inch per hour have occurred in the heaviest showers. These 
rainfall rates over the Thomas Fire burn area will likely cause 
minor mud and debris flows. The showers and thunderstorms are 
expected to persist through early this evening.
