Bay. Not as much in the south bay, though. The rain made for slow going on the roads. And the winds also kicked up a bit as well there. Look at the rain along highway 101. This is in the southbound lanes near menlo park about 3 00 this afternoon. The wet weather causing delays and other problems for drivers. Sfo, though, no delays. Lets check in with meteorologist anthony slaughter. Hes got more on all of this. The rain is still coming down in many locations right now. Even as we speak, we had a main push of rain come through earlier and that dumped a good amount of rain in a lot of locations. Still, i want to show you what our scope looks like now. This will give you an estimate of what we saw as far as rainfall amounts this past morning. You can see really impressive, once you get into the greens, half moon bay, north bay, thats where we saw widespread amounts of upwards of one inch. The good news is its helping in our drought, unfortunately as you heard earlier, and really throughout much of the Morning Hours earlier this morning, from our past storms, a lot of this activity comes so quick, so we get the ponding on the roads, and of course, we get some mudslides here and there as well. Well talk about the rainfall totals, very impressive ones as you heard earlier, upwards of an inch, even close to two inches in napa, just from this system alone. We have two more storms to get through. Well time that out for you in just a little while. Sounds good. And from a canceled baseball game to downed trees, the weather is also causing problems across the bay area. Nbc bay areas Monte Francis is in San Francisco where city crews are working to remove a very large tree that came crashing down a couple of hours ago. Reporter good evening. The good news is no one was hurt. You can see the large tree behind me, it hit a gas meter on the way down. Pg e said that is what may have caused a gas line to rupture. City crews are working to remove the tree. Theyve stopped for the moment and pg e is also here at the scene in the castro. Neighbors tell us the tree came down about noon today. Just after the tree fell, they heard a loud hissing sound and notified pg e. They capped the leak and people were allowed back into their homes. The tree came down after a constant downpour this morning in the city, and the tree also took down some power lines. It crashed onto a garage. Given the size of the tree, neighbors are just glad no one was hurt. I came back home, i could smell gas in my garage. Were like, oh, okay, you know, i could see why they evacuated everybody. Thats a good idea. Reporter right now, a disappointment for thousands of baseball fans. The asgiants game in oakland was rained out. The kcoliseum is known for flooding. We understand there was flooding in the lower levels of the coliseum. Back here live in San Francisco, crews are getting here to begin some of that work. After that im told pg e crews will more closely inspect the damage to the gas meter and line and make repairs. The utility said only one customer is currently without gas and Power Service here in this neighborhood in the castro tonight. Monte francis, nbc bay area news.

A confrontation between a suspected car thief and police in San Francisco ended in gunfire today. Officers say they were about to check out a parked car with stolen plates in north beach when the driver saw police. He allegedly tried to drive away but the door flew open and hit one of the officers in the arm. That caused the officer to pull the trigger. Police found the car a short time later abandoned. The vehicle was located with a pull let hole in the vehicle, but does not appear any person was struck. Theres no evidence that the person was struck or injured. But again, that suspect is outstanding. There is just a vague description of the driver. A white or hispanic man in his mid20s. The officer was not hurt. The homeowner in the east bay got a startling wakeup car. A car spun out of control right into his house. It happened about 6 00 this morning. When police got to the scene, they found an overturned honda that slammed into the front staircase of the house. When the homeowner heard the screeching tires, he knew exactly what was going on. People come speeding through this corner. Theyre fast. Hit the front of my house at least three times. The driver had no visible injuries. But he was air lifted to a nearby hospital as a precaution. Police are investigating the accident. Theyve not said if they believe alcohol or drugs might have been involved.

Five bay area women are heading to the white house this weekend, celebrating their conibutions to world war ii. Also i have learned to love a cop. Hes dedicated his life to serving those who serve. And tonight, san joses Police Chaplain reflects on his volunteer work. Really. So our business can be on at ts network for 175 dollars a month . Yup. All five of you for 175.

These women were among the tens of thousands of women who worked as Ship Builders and plane builders during world war ii, this morning they enjoyed a red carpet sendoff at sfo. Joe biden sent them invitations to come to the white house. Responding to their letter that requested recognition of their wartime contributions. Thats fine, but they needed help funding that trip. These ladies are in their 80s and 90s, and they live on fixed incomes. A hundred donors came through, including Kaiser Permanente and virgin america. I was treated very well. And i worked the graveyard shift. Took the ferry from San Francisco to a Shipyard Number two. And today, the rosie memorial is at Shipyard Number two. Yeah, several ladies still work at the Visitor Center in richmond. Right on the water. A beautiful spot. Despite all the rain this week, the drought is still taking a toll on wildlife, especially fish. Joe shows us the effort under way to save the salmon. Reporter from the Sacramento Bell ta, past the tiny town of rio vista, the trucks have begun to arrive. A convoy of tankers pull in, hauling precious cargo from the coleman federal Fish Hatchery in redding. The tanks are filled with hundreds of thousands salmon. They would be released upriver to begin their migration to the sea, but this isnt a normal year. Were trying to give them a jumpstart, to get them past problem areas upstream, increase their chances of making it successfully out the golden gate. Reporter the impact of severe drought, the fishery managers decided to truck the salmon down to the delta for release. If we were to reach coleman and they would perish on the trip, we would have no recreational fish in 2016. Reporter theyre poured into net pens to acclimate to the delta waters. More than 240 trucks will make the same journey, hauling more than 30 million fish. This represents the most salmon smoltz ever moved out of the upper river, down past the pumps, past very low drought waters, so they can make their way safely out the golden gate. Reporter the strategy has drawbacks, by trucking in the fish the salmon will have a difficult time finding their way back to the hatcheries where they were born. The science fair is out. You truck fish, after they go out to the ocean and return back to fresh water to spawn, theyre a little bit lost. Reporter fishing managers hope to prevent the collapse of future Recreational Fishing season. It costs the state hundreds of millions of dollars and hundreds of jobs. This will affect 2016 and 17 which may have been a closed season, to what could be a fantastic year. Reporter so the trucks come.

The rain did not stop thousands of people from turning out for the season opening of a bay area theme park. Great america in santa clara officially started its 38th season today. Were told at least 2,000 people showed up for this rainy day. Were excited. We have the guests back in the park. Thats what its all about, letting people enjoy themselves. The gold striker roller coaster was popular, were told on this rainy day. It looks like the merrygoround there was popular as well. The tallest roller coaster in Northern California right there, the gold striker. Going up to the top. Its almost time. This is when you start yelling or getting ready to yell. That feeling in your stomach when you get to the top, you know its coming. Right there. Ah there you go. That was diane, folks. I was adding a little color commentary. Meteorologist anthony slaughter here with the forecast. Get your hands up, will you, please . I love roller coasters. You know, the good thing about the weather that we had today, even though it was raining, it wasnt terribly cold. You could still get out on some of the roller coasters. Great america a great place to get out and enjoy. Still, right now, if youre out there, or have family or friends out there, we do still have showers in the region. I want to zoom in on the heavier bands of rain. Across 680, 880 as well and extends south of san mateo, over to woodside, even hayward in the middle of this. This band of rain pushing through right now, another heavier band of rain, like we saw earlier, and once this moves out, i do think were going to be done with the rain. You can see after a few hours, really from San Francisco off the coast, i would say about two or three hours after this pushes through, well be done with the rain. Well see the rain come to an end, and were talking about sunshine for tomorrow. Lets get you into that forecast. First, though, lets show you the rainfall totals. Impressive amounts really up to about an inch and some change in napa. Same for mill valley. Orinda around an inch. The rain continues to fall. You know what, even right now were still seeing the raindrops on some of our camera lenses and heavier rain on the radar. You can see it from the camera perspective. Low visibility and definitely some slick roads this evening. So if youre headed out, take it easy on the roadways. Showers will begin to clear out as we head through the evening hours. The center of low pressure will start to approach. Whats going to happen is well start to see more spotty activity through the day tomorrow. Albeit, well see some sunshine, but it will be very spotty and hitandmiss activity. All the rain, of course, meets the earths snow. This is where most of our water comes from for most of the bay area communities. Another foot and a half expected on top of whats already falling right now. Of course, if you are headed that way, the chains definitely needed if you are going to be doing any traveling that way. Here at home tomorrow, again, well see sunshine. A good mix of cloud cover, though. 64 in morgan hill. 63 in san jose. 60 in san mateo. Youll notice tomorrow, not overly warm in San Francisco. Struggling to get to 60 degrees. Even the marina at 61. Walnut creek, 63. And livermore right around 64 degrees. As i mentioned, we have another storm headed our way, monday into tuesday. The thing about this system thats different from the one were getting today is the core of the low will actually pass right over the bay area. If you know anything about weather, this is very dangerous, because were talking about the potential for strong gusty winds coupled with heavy rain and thunderstorms. Well watch this very closely. Youll recall about a month ago in february, the beginning of february, we had a really strong storm come through, dumped about 11 inches in the north bay. This is something well be paying attention to closely because it will get so close to us. The threat for thunderstorms exists all over. Well track it here and online at nbcbayarea. Com. Back to you.

But soon the chaplain at the San Jose Police department will be leaving his post. The Police Chaplain is usually a volunteer position, and san jose its a fulltime job. Heres Garvin Thomas with tonights bay area proud. Reporter if theres one thing dave has learned during his time with the San Jose Police department, its that there is no such thing as small talk when youre chaplain to a big city force. Dave believes all those little conversations hes had over the past three decades in the hallways, squad cars and crime scenes, have paved the way to his office when its time for a big one. These walls can tell a lot of stories. Reporter the chaplains walls most recently can be found in a donated office atop the san jose funeral home. The icebox, as officers call it, is something of an unofficial cop clubhouse. At times, packed for an informal lunch, other times its a single officer, and a serious talk. I have learned to love a cop, and to see them in the good times and the bad times. Reporter and for 28 years, chaplain dave has made it his mission to be there for both. On the good days, hes blessing weddings and baptizing babies. On the bad days, burying officers. The absolute worst, one day in january, 25 years ago. It was my day off. And i got a call. Reporter two officers had been shot. Gene simpson dying at the scene, gordy silva later at the hospital. It was chaplain dave who broke the news to most of simpsons family, just not his parents. And they pulled up, and they heard it on the radio. And reporter dave swore that day to never let it happen again on his watch, and it never has. A lot of officers reporter but chaplain daves watch is now ending. We apologize for the difficulties in the last story that Garvin Thomas package. Well see you back here tonight at 6 00.
