We came up here to see it and we got our show. I think its crazy. We used to kind of hang out around here and it used to never be this full. The reservoir above morgan hill has not held so much water since 2006. A relief valve at the foot of the dam was opened last month, but theres another reason why so much water is being released. The dam is considered vulnerable to a 7. 25 magnitude earthquake. It is required to be kept only 68 full because of that. Water Officials Say it will take four to nine weeks to draw down the level to that point. Is four to nine weeks reasonable . I i you know, its its its just a physical reality. It is what it is. We started releasing water from that outlet full blast on january 9th when this reservoir was less than half full. So we anticipate it. Reporter until the reservoir is drawn down, water officials and others are crossing their fingers that Mother Nature doesnt make a seismically sensitive situation worse. Im kind of worried. A little bit worried. Reporter what are you worried about . Just that it gets too high. If it keeps raining. But i think were okay. Reporter so far, nothing to worry about.

Crews are keeping a close eye on the water level at the oroville dam. As of 8 00 this morning, state water leaders say the lake level is trending downward. Its now about 35 feet below the top of the emergency spillway. Crews are continuing to work on the damaged area. The overflow of the emergency area on sunday caused a lot of erosion. That led to the evacuation of nearly 200,000 people. Well, gravestones halfway submerged underwater. Take a look at the scene here at Valley Cemetery on east mcarthur street in sonoma this morning. Prosecutors say three large oak trees fell overnight causing a water main break that flooded the cemetery. The surge of water also created a mess for homeowners nearby. Water was rushing through their driveway and through their backyard, as you can see. Some say they were able to keep it out of their homes, but they had to use sandbags. Right now lets check in with meteorologist rob mayeda. So many of these water stories and the wind has really cleared out any pollution. The air quality is quite nice, because the reservoir is filling up there near anderson, 101 capacity. Lexington, too, at 101 capacity. Coyote a Coyote Reservoir above 100 . A year ago, the state average was only 57 . Check out whats over my shoulder here. This is for late tomorrow into monday. A flood watch in effect for the bay area. Obviously the weather right now is quiet. But were dealing with another plume, an atmospheric river. Youve heard that term many times in this very wet winter. Once again, setting up to our west, which means the potential for some very heavy rain returning to the bay area over the next 24 hours. Well see the risk for flooding once again. Creeks and rivers on the rise, and you mentioned the wind. The wind advisory up to 24 Miles Per Hour and 20foot waves. Heading to the coast, well bring you the timeline on this next powerful storm coming up hour by hour, coming up at 5 18. Back to you. Sounds goo. Thanks, rob.

Investigators say human remains were found yesterday on platform bridge road near point ray station. That road, just reopened within the past hour. Nbc bay areas Christie Smith live in marin county, where investigators, including the fbi, were out all day, looking for clues in this case. Christie . Reporter thats right. This is a joint investigation and the fbi is a part of it, because three remains were found on park service land. But today there are still many questions, like how long these human remains have been there and how they got there in the first place. Now, it appears the staff with search and rescue with the Sheriffs Department were coming and going at platform bridge road and point rays petaluma road a road. They went through the heavy brush as a precaution to see if there was any potential evidence left behind. A spokesperson for the Parks Service says a driver discovered the remains and that there was also plastictype material in the area that was not known if the remains were encased in it. Its also unclear as to if weather may have played a role. We dont know if theyve been in this one embankment down the creek or have the storms move them from another location. We dont know the answer to that at this point. Now, at the time that we spoke withspokesperson, he really didnt have much information on the remains, including the gender.

Two local members of Congress Held an event today. In san leandro, Eric Swalwell held a roundtable discussion. At both events, storytelling held a central role while swalwell heard personal accounts of those who could lose coverage. People told me without the coverage they have under the Affordable Care act, they would be left in financial ruin. You have to talk to your friends in republican districts to tell them to call their member of congress. The stories are the most persuasive, the most persuasive arguments of all. Republicans are working to repeal and replace obamacare or the Affordable Care act, as its also known, but they remain split on exactly how to do that.

And that powerful friday storm moving on right now. A bit of a break in the action, but it may not last long, as our sunday forecast includes the return of some wind, heavy rain at times. Well talk more about who will see the highest risk for flooding when we come back in just three minutes. 2 shot theoundingain todaleaving be Southern California got hit hard during this storm. The pounding rain leaving a lot of mud and mess and debris behind. Yeah. This was the scene right now in duarte. City officials declared a red alert because this area was hit hard recently by wildfires. More than 200 homes were evacuated early yesterday afternoon. A lot of people were coming back today to see what was left. And they say this is the first time their community has been hit hard. Last time, january 20th was a real big one. It was about twice as much as this. My gate slipped open and we got mud all the way up into right to the edge of the garage. Didnt make it into the garage, but spent all day like scraping mud out and my back was tired and, you know, so this is not bad. The city lifted the mandatory Evacuation Order at 8 00 this morning. Speaking of a little bit of a break there, i woke up this morning, it was raining, but then we did get a bit of sunshine this afternoon. Skies cleared mainly for the afternoon, after a very windy, stormy day on friday. As bad as things were here, you saw, Southern California actually took the biggest hit with that storm on friday. Right now, pretty nice evening in San Francisco. Certainly the drier half of the weekend taking place right now. 53 degrees in San Francisco, close to 60 in some spots a bit further inland today. Well show you ocean beach right now, solimilar view, looking pretty nice. Big surf headed your way, with up to 20 feet on the coast from ocean beach to Half Moon Bay right now. Wave heights, not too bad. It will be Tuesday Morning when you see that surf on the rise. Right now, dublin, 51 degrees. Kind of a cloudy and cool day around the trivalley into san jose right now. 53 degrees and temperature wise, not much change from that certainly jacket weather if youre headed outdoors this evening. But the umbrella, probably on hold until a bit later on tomorrow night into tomorrow morning. Temperatures in the Santa Clarita valley in the low 50s. Still breezy outside, not as windy as friday, but sustained winds, 20 to 30 Miles Per Hour. Those wind speeds will likely increase as we head through tomorrow afternoon and tomorrow evening. So wakeup morning temperatures in the mid40s outside. A little bit of light rain to start and some heavy rain picking up and well show you that hourbyhour as we head towards the evening. Close to 60 in san jose, over to pleasanton, concord, and back towards the peninsula, will be in the upper 50s. Similar temperatures from San Francisco, highs with mostly cloudy skies and periods, we think, of some light rain, at least to start, midday tomorrow followed up by heavier rain sunday night into monday. Here is the next storm, offshore. As we go hour by hour, youll see, sunday, the game starts relatively dry, 8 00 a. M. And by 1 00, youll notice how the rain begins to pick up, more noticeable around the coastal hilltops, as we get into midnight, north bay, santa cruz mountains, watch this. 6 00 a. M. Monday, lunchtime monday, still right there in the santa cruz mountains, into the evening now, that rain hung up over the south bay hilltops and santa cruz mountains. That will be the area we think that sees the highest rain totals out of the storm. You could see these areas picking up maybe 4 to 6 inches of rain in the santa cruz mountains, as we isolate that for you in the north bay. You see the highest risk for flooding, northern Sonoma County and especially once again through the santa cruz mountains. So, tuesday, things try to dry out. Wednesday, we see cooler, scattered showers rolling on in, as this storm will have a loc longlasting impact starting sunday night. It will carry us through monday evening. And then the middle part of the week, we begin to catch a break. Well still see showers at times, but that will be relatively cool air coming on in. So the main flooding risks should start to decrease by Tuesday Morning, but what sets the storm apart, as you saw in that hourbyhour forecast, that could be looking at 12 to 18 hours of steady rain in the santa cruz mountains. Wow. Thank you. Still to come, running a marathon every week for a year. Even he admits its completely crazy. But in former bay area radio personality says running likely saved his life.

Reporter a rite of passage that grew into a twodecade addiction. So i smoked a pack a day and had no exercise. And in general, didnt live a particularly healthy lifestyle.

Hes hoping for 100,000 for breathe california, where hes a board member. But there is a bigger goal. Reaching people and telling them that they can give up smoking and its not as hard as they think and you can lead a healthy lifestyle. Thats as important if not more important to me. Reporter gregs running partner the day we were with him was none attorney deane c carnassus. Greg says deane has been a mentor for him throughout this journey and you probably couldnt ask for a better one than that. I would say so. So inspirational.
