Best of luck, it doesn't look promising:

SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA 113 PM PDT FRI JUN 3 2011 ...
WET WEEKEND EXPECTED ACROSS SAN LUIS OBISPO AND SANTA BARBARA COUNTIES... AN UNUSUALLY STRONG LATE SEASON STORM IS BEGINNING TO DEVELOP OFF THE NORTHERN CALIFORNIA COAST THIS AFTERNOON...AND IS EXPECTED TO SPIN OFF THE CENTRAL CALIFORNIA COAST OVERNIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY. THIS SYSTEM HAS AN UNUSUALLY HIGH AMOUNT OF AVAILABLE MOISTURE FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. IN ADDITION...THERE WILL BE DEEP SOUTHERLY FLOW THAT WILL PROVIDE OROGRAPHIC ENHANCEMENT OF RAINFALL ACROSS THE COASTAL SLOPES OF SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY. RAIN IS EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY OVERNIGHT...WITH PERIODS OF RAIN CONTINUING ACROSS SAN LUIS OBISPO AND SANTA BARBARA COUNTIES THROUGH THE WEEKEND. SOME OF THIS RAINFALL COULD BE HEAVY AT TIMES...ESPECIALLY FOR SAN LUIS OBISPO AND WESTERN SANTA BARBARA COUNTIES. DUE TO THE NEARLY STATIONARY NATURE OF THIS CUTOFF LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM...THERE IS EXPECTED TO BE VERY LITTLE EASTWARD PROGRESSION OF THE RAIN BAND...SO ANY CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION FOR VENTURA AND LOS ANGELES COUNTIES WILL NOT OCCUR UNTIL LATE SUNDAY. THERE IS EXPECTED TO BE A VERY LARGE PRECIPITATION GRADIENT WITH THIS STORM. AT THIS TIME...SAN LUIS OBISPO IS EXPECTED TO RECEIVE THE BRUNT OF THIS STORM...WITH RAINFALL AMOUNTS GENERALLY BETWEEN ONE AND THREE INCHES ACROSS LOWER ELEVATIONS THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT. HOWEVER...THE FOOTHILLS AND COASTAL SLOPES OF NORTHWEST SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY ARE EXPECTED TO RECEIVE BETWEEN THREE AND FIVE INCHES. RAINFALL RATES COULD EXCEED ONE THIRD OF AN INCH PER HOUR AT TIMES ON SATURDAY ACROSS SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY...BRINGING THE POTENTIAL FOR URBAN AN SMALL STREAM FLOODING CONCERNS. ACROSS SANTA BARBARA COUNTY...AMOUNTS ARE EXPECTED TO RANGE BETWEEN ONE TENTH AND ONE INCH...WITH THE HIGHEST AMOUNTS ACROSS WESTERN PORTIONS. AT THIS TIME...IT APPEARS THAT VENTURA AND LOS ANGELES COUNTIES WILL SEE LITTLE OR NO RAINFALL WITH THIS SYSTEM. DUE TO THE ERRATIC NATURE OF CUTOFF LOW SYSTEMS...IT MUST BE EMPHASIZED THAT A SLIGHT CHANGE IN POSITIONING COULD LEAD TO DRASTICALLY DIFFERENT RAINFALL DISTRIBUTIONS. DUE TO THE SOUTHERLY FLOW ASSOCIATED WITH THIS STORM...SNOW LEVELS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN WELL ABOVE 7000 FEET. AS A RESULT...THE LOCAL RESORTS ARE NOT EXPECTED TO RECEIVE ANY SNOWFALL WITH THIS SYSTEM. THE STRONGEST SOUTHERLY WINDS WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL ALSO BE FOCUSED ACROSS SAN LUIS OBISPO AND SANTA BARBARA COUNTIES...WITH GUSTS GENERALLY BETWEEN 25 AND 35 MPH ACROSS COASTAL AND VALLEY LOCATIONS...AND LOCAL GUSTS OVER 40 MPH IN THE MOUNTAINS. THIS STORM WILL LIKELY BRING UNUSALLY HIGH RAINFALL TO AREAS NORTH OF POINT CONCEPTION FOR A JUNE STORM...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR RECORD RAINFALL AT SOME LOCATIONS. RESIDENTS OF SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA ARE URGED TO STAY TUNED TO THE LATEST NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORECASTS AND STATEMENTS AS THIS LATE SEASON STORM UNFOLDS.
Cheers!
