Daily News, Press-Enterprise, San Gabriel Valley Tribune, Long Beach Press-Telegram, The Daily Breeze, San Bernardino Sun, Daily Bulletin, Redlands Daily Facts, Whittier Daily News and Pasadena-Star News) select the Athletes of the Week for their respective region.

Each athlete is then entered into the overall Southern California Athlete of the Week vote.

Click on the newspaper links below the athlete’s name to read about their performance from last week, and then vote for who you think deserves the top honor.

Readers are allowed to vote multiple times. Voting ends at midnight, but final totals aren’t always immediately reflected due to processing.

The overall winner will be announced on Friday, December 23.

Voting poll at bottom of the page.

Janessa Rodriguez, San Dimas: The Saints’ leading scorer had 11 points, 10 rebounds, four blocks and four steals in a 47-46 victory over Los Altos to finish third in the San Dimas tournament. In a 49-43 semifinal loss to Roosevelt, Rodriguez scored 10 points and grabbed nine rebounds. She also had 14 points with 10 rebounds in a 68-30 win over Einsenhower. San Dimas is 9-2 overall.

Kylie Ray, Crescenta Valley: Ray is emerging as one of the better guards in the area. She is averaging 16.4 points and 3.3 rebounds per game this season. She tallied 17 points and six rebounds in a win over Pasadena before notching 12 points, six assists and eight steals in a win over Hoover.

Peyton Marinos, JSerra: Marinos helped the Lions win the Best in the West Tournament. She scored twice in a 2-1 victory against Los Alamitos in the semifinals and once in the shootout in the final against Villa Park.

Nyemah King, Lakewood: King scored a game-high 23 points in Lakewood’s 57-30 win against rival Millikan to open Moore League play on Friday, Dec. 16. The 5-foot-9 sophomore guard is averaging more than 20 points per game this season. The Lancers are on an eight-game winning streak.

Sydney Bushman, Mira Costa: Bushman’s long-range free kick in double overtime gave the Mustangs a 1-0 win over rival Redondo in the final of the South Holiday Tournament. Bushman was selected MVP of the tournament.

“All systems go for a major and unusual storm,” the National Weather Service said in its forecast on Wednesday.

The powerful winter storm moving through California is expected to drop heaps of rain, sleet and snow across much of the state, including Southern California, where several feet of fresh powder could fall in the mountains of Los Angeles and Ventura counties at elevations as low as 1,500 feet Thursday into Friday.

The event is unusual even in a winter of unusual events, climate experts say. The state already defied forecasts for a dry winter driven by La Niña when a series of nine atmospheric river storms pummeled California in January — the wettest three-week period on record, according to state officials.

Now, portions of Los Angeles and Ventura counties are under a blizzard warning — only the second such warning ever the weather service is aware of. Should forecasts manifest, the mountain areas could receive the “largest amount of 24- [to] 48-hour snowfall seen in decades,” rivaling a winter storm in 1989, forecasters said.

Daniel McEvoy, a regional climatologist with Western Regional Climate Center, said the rare system is part of a larger-scale circulation pattern in the Western U.S. that has been in place through much of winter and has locked in a lot of cold air.

“This has been one of the coldest winters in many decades for a lot of places,” McEvoy said. “The fact that we’re having another cold storm this winter is not that surprising, but the magnitude — and how the ingredients are setting up to impact Southern California especially — is looking pretty rare.”

The system is being driven by an area of low pressure off the coast of California that is slowly moving south from Canada, he said. Within that main system are multiple “waves of energy” due to the flow of the jet stream, or the air currents in the upper level of the atmosphere that guide weather systems across the globe.

Though it is not like the “classic” atmospheric rivers that hit the state in late December and early January, the system will connect with moisture over the Pacific as it moves through California, signaling heavy rain and snow.

“The forecast has a lot of snow, and snow at really low elevations, as opposed to the storms that we saw in early January that had a completely different flow where the jet stream was coming from the west, or even the south, and bringing up warmer air, which led to really high snow levels during that series of storms,” he said.

The effects of the storm are expected to be wide-ranging and potentially dangerous, including road closures, power outages, downed trees and other hazards. Residents are being advised to avoid travel during the brunt of the storm unless absolutely necessary.

Though Southern California will feel some impacts, it’s far from the only part of the state bracing for snowy weather, with winter storm warnings in areas ranging from the Oregon border to Mexico.

“This is a rare setup for us,” said Brayden Murdock, a meteorologist with the weather service in the San Francisco Bay Area. “If this whole system was pushed a little more off to the east, it probably would have been more of a dry, strong wind event, but since it gets the opportunity to interact with the Pacific, that’s why we’re getting all this moisture on top of it.”

Indeed, it was only months ago when forecasters called for a drier-than-normal winter driven largely by La Niña, a climate pattern in the tropical Pacific.

But La Niña is transitioning into a more neutral pattern, said National Weather Service meteorologist Lisa Phillips. The latest seasonal outlook issued by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration now shows equal chances of wetness or dryness in almost all of California through May.

McEvoy, the climatologist, said the moist system speaks to the challenges of long-term forecasting. Since about November, the jet stream has been digging out an area of low pressure that has been persistent over much of the West Coast, he said.

“The atmosphere has gotten locked into this pattern this winter, and it doesn’t look like it’s going to be breaking anytime soon,” he said.

David Sweet, a meteorologist with the weather service in Oxnard, called it a “complex and complicated scenario.”

“It’s bringing all of that cold air down to Southern California; we’re getting the full brunt,” Sweet said.

“It’s got the cold air, it’s got the moisture, it’s got strong winds,” he added. “It’s an ideal situation for a big weather maker with huge impacts.”

Temperatures were expected to be as much as 20 degrees below normal, and by Wednesday afternoon, snow was already starting to fall in portions of the Antelope Valley, while hail was pounding the pavement in Highland Park and Pasadena. Residents reported a dusting of snow in La Crescenta, and 50-mph gusts battered Thousand Oaks and Agoura.

The biggest effects will be Thursday through Saturday, when Southern California could see several feet of fresh powder in the mountains around Los Angeles.

Southern California is bracing for the coldest storm of the winter and likely the coldest storm in many years, which will bring rain and lower-elevation snow to the region.

The weather will shift dramatically Tuesday afternoon with cooler temperatures and winds ranging from 30-50 mph in the valleys and coastal areas, according to the National Weather Service. Wind gusts in the mountains and foothills could reach as high as 80 mph.

High temperatures will be in the low-to-mid-60s for metropolitan Los Angeles, then fall dramatically in the evening.

“This storm will pack a one-two punch as the winds will be accompanied by extremely cold air,” NWS said.

Chances for precipitation increase on Thursday and Friday and will continue into the weekend.

“As the storm moves onshore, it will pack a big punch,” said KTLA meteorologist Henry DiCarlo. “The atmosphere is really poised for a lot of rain.

DiCarlo is forecasting 4 to 5 inches of rainfall in the coastal areas and valleys through Saturday, and snowfall as low as 1,000 feet in elevation, meaning possible snow or graupel in the San Fernando Valley, Santa Clarita Valley and La Crescenta.

At 1,500 feet, the 5 Freeway through the Grapevine is expected to see dangerous driving conditions due to snowfall. Snow accumulation in the mountain above 2,500 feet will range from 6 to 12 inches, NWS said.

“I think this is the storm that gets us over our seasonal average for moisture. It’s been years since we’ve talked about that,” DiCarlo said.

The Los Angeles County Public Health Department issued a cold weather warning due to wind chill temperatures that are expected to be below freezing.

“Children, the elderly, and people with disabilities or special medical needs are especially vulnerable during cold weather. Extra precaution should be taken to ensure they don’t get too cold when they are outside,” said Dr. Muntu Davis, Los Angeles County health officer. “There are places where people can go to stay warm, such as shelters or other public facilities. We also want to remind people not to use stoves, barbeques or ovens to heat their homes due to the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.”

The Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority has a Winter Shelter Program available for those in need. Locations and transportation information can be found online at www.lahsa.org or by calling the L.A. County Information line at 211.
