That was 159 of normal but december was the only time since the rain season started on october 1st that we picked up some good accumulation. So where am i going with this .

North bay would begin to clear out and this pushes out of hear fast, by 11 00 tomorrow it is moving off to the south. Rainfall totals, atenth to a quarter of an inch on average for the entire bay area. So well be able to get to that just fine. I think your morning commute might be slower. And dont get caught off guard by the temperatures. It will be chilly to start. After that system passes through, we will be down into the 30s for the trivalley. Peninsula 41 and the south bay at 40. Also at 40 in the east bay. San francisco 43. And the north bay feeling the chill at 38. Temperatures wont warm up a whole lot through the day tomorrow.

But king tides return friday, saturday, and sunday. High tides from 10 00 a. M. To noon over the threeday period which could bring coastal flooding and slight chance of a morning shower on saturday so good to go for the 49ers game and dry on sunday and slight chance of a shower on monday and next wednesday we could have a stronger storm approaching from the north. So i think by next thursday we could be getting into some heavier rainfall totals. Well of course know more as we get closer to that.
