As you could see there, not raining in some spots but it has been around a lot. Meteorologist kari hall is tracking the storm for us. And kari that is all i can say. Weve been in and out of the rain so some areas are taking a break but we are seeing a heavy amount of rain still moving through parts of Contra Costa County and much of the north bay. And then as we get a closer look at storm ranger, our mobile Doppler Radar it has been picking up on some of the rain as it continues to move through. We are seeing some of the heavy waves of rain moving through spots like antioch and brentwood as well as over toward the east bay and then for the south bay as of right now we are not seeing any of those showers moving through. We could see on storm ranger where we see the yellow and red shows whe the antioch and brentwood were seeing heavy rain on storm ranger. In the south county weve had steady rain around gilroy sand morgan hill. It has taken a break in san jose. As we look right now, still the storm system spinning over the bay area bringing waves of rain and still part of the system that brought the atmospheric river. And it will cause some unsettled weather for a few more hours and then start to taper off later on this evening. Through 8 00 still a chance of rain but the rain chances are going down for much of the bay area. Tomorrow will break before we see another chance of rain moving in and ill have more on that coming up in the full microclimate forecast. Storms triggered this landslide in san bruno. Below.

Well keep an eye out on the developments and follow the updates on ourpages and nbcbaya it is interesting to see how urban that is. It is not near the wild land. Where did it come from. Another set of impeachment hearings in washington this morning. We were transfixed. This time focused on what is impeachable. Scott mcgrew, the White House Judiciary Committee heard from three liberals and one conservative. And he went out of his way to say he didnt vote for donald trump but ill get to him in a minute. A lot less dramatic than in the pass. That is intentional. This is the House Judiciary Committee where they determine whether to impeach. It is not the investigation which is mostly behind us at this point. Therefore you had no secrets uncovered. No dramatic testimony. Instead it is a discussion of e seated in the center was dr. Pame pamela karlan and here she is speaking of the founding fathers. The very idea that the president might seek the aid of a Foreign Government would have horrified them. But based on the evidentiary record that is what President Trump has done. The president was invited to supply witnesses and lawyers but the white house declined. As we said this morning on today in the bay, chairman nadler may have missed an opportunity to invite a equal number of experts from both sides and he did not. One spoke out against impeachment. George washington professor Jonathan Turley said the president s beef hafor from ukraineaserctevel of impeachment. He went out of his way to say he didnt support trump and said the problem was that the impeachment was not wrong but it was rushed. Dr. Turly participated in the impeachment of a federal judge and bill clinton 20 years ago. Here he is in 98 supporting the impeachment of a president saying if a president divides a nation he should stand before the senate and if found not guilty earn his credibility back. Let me finish by saying this if i can. When the president engages in conduct that deprives him of legitimacy that could deny the nation, that conduct will require him to stand in the well of the senate and there he will remain the legitimacy that he lost. And the question continues in the member gets five minutes and were powerful on the committee. And reminder, people on twitter are getting this wrong, it is not to decide whether the president committed a crime or gather evidence, it is to understand whether the things hes accused of rise to the level of impeachment. That is what today is. And it is a little less dramatic. You dont have witnesses. So this is like the the dmv having a conversation about speeding. Whether speeding violates the law. Not whether you did it or not. Thank you very much, scott.
