Several neighborhoods including Sleepy Hollow. Look at the video. Hole. Last Night City Council said it is going to take four weeks to fix it and its not cheap. It will cost up to 1. 3 million to fix the structural problems. We were actually hoping to be able to get in and start working in the sinkhole to remove debris and assets damage. The challenge they are now facing is another round of this Rainy Weather making conditions hazardous. They say the area could be inundated with storm water again if a storm drainage system cant handle creek overflows and on and off throughout the morning we have already been watching some of that rain currently died down a little bit now but still expecting more later on. The next step in all of this the city is looking to hire a contractor. They say they are currently accepting bids. Live in orinda, Sandra Osborne, kpix 5. And rain is here. For more on that, heres brian. You bet, mrs. Griego. We have the kpix 5 hidef Doppler Radar fired up. A band moved through at 3 a. M. And now theres some good cells around the bay area. But it will ease up before the brunt of the front comes in around midday today. Still, just east of san ramon and dublin and the 680 corridor and toward livermore. Theres one initial wave of moderate rain. Then down toward the south bay you can see that on 880 right around 880101 theres good showers, as well. Then rain in the los altos hills. In general the push comes in here early afternoon in the north bay and it gets right in time for the evening commute. Look at that. And in addition to this, there could be some shocking weather this afternoon the potential for lightning and maybe a few thunderstorms. Well see if that develops as the day wears on. Then its a fast mover. Thats the good news. We should not see the dramatic problems we had last week because it moves so fast. And the rain amounts will not be as much. About a half down below to 2 inches up top. We shouldnt see spiking on the rivers. You always have to stay tuned. High wind alerts posted, as well. Wind gusts up to 60 miles an hour. So along with the rain the wind, maybe some lightning, a brief break on thursday. And then two more storms due into the bay area on friday and on sunday. Both of them similar to what well see later today. Rain should ease up in the next few hours with a few drops around again before the front develops later today. High temperature forecast its going to be chilly out there. Temperatures only in the low 50s, extended forecast we are going to be looking for rain today especially after midday. Thursday a few showers, then friday another storm coming in. A break on saturday before the last in this 123 punch moves through on sunday and then we exhale on monday and tuesday. Thats weather. How is it affecting the road ahead . Heres roqui. Thank you, brian. Like you said, the rain is not coming down too hard right now so its pretty calm out there. So lets take a look at some closures were still dealing with from last weeks storm in marin. Highway 1 between panoramic highway and muir woods road is closed due to last weeks storm and well see how this new round of rain affects the area. Take panoramic highway past the closure to get back on to your route. Moving over to the Golden Gate Bridge from marin county into the toll plaza, that will take you about 14 minutes from 580 in san rafael but looking good otherwise just some slick roads around the area. Light rain means slick roads. So take it slow. Heres a live look at the toll plaza. The bay bridge metering lights are on and that traffic is backing up into the maze now. The maze to downtown will take you about 15 to 20 minutes so not too bad of a commute so far. Okay. Lets move over to woodside along the peninsula. Utility work on highway 84 is still under oneway Traffic Control from last weeks storm. Pg e is replacing power poles but because of the rain today, they just have it closed to oneway control.

Thats about 10 of lawmakers in congress. For many it is simply a vote of no confidence in president elect donald trump. Im just not celebrating an administration that campaigns and continues to, um, be divisive, um, one that denigrated women and wants to deport dreamers.

We have a wet start to this wednesday morning with low pressure thats powering a series of storms that targeted Northern California. Of course were all worried about is this a repeat performance of last week . It shouldnt be because theres not as much moisture in the stream that does stretch back to the tropics. But. The situation isnt exactly the same. These are fastmoving systems. Its not going to just sit on top of us and rain and rain and rain. It will come in spurts and when it comes, boy, it will pour. But then it should whew be out of there. We are already see that. Fairly fastmoving cells in the bay area beginning at 3 a. M. This was the initial band that a lot of us experienced when we got up this morning. Now it eases up a little bit. Big front comes in later in the day. Still lets focus on what we have at the moment which is some good cells now that are heading east of livermore and out toward the Altamont Pass. Down in the south bay, mostly over the hamilton range and a little bit there thats coming in over san jose and sunnyvale. And these will dissipate during the earlymorning hours and then well get a little bit of a break. Rain turning to snow in the mountains. Winter storm warnings already up, snow, gusty winds, snow level down to 4500 feet and another 6 to 18 inches of snow on top of the epic amounts they already have in the mountains. So they will get snow up there. Down here futurecast shows whats happening later in the day. We get the front initially touching the north bay in the early afternoon at around 1 00 to 3 00 and then watch what happens during the evening choose, just wham right in the middle of the commute. And it could be showers and thundershowers instability with this. But its fastmoving. It gets out of the area quickly leaving us with just a few pop up showers by tomorrow morning. So thursday isolated showers after we deal with what we have today. In addition to the rain we have the winds. 30 miles an hour in the lowlands. Thats pretty good winds. Up top they are up to 60 miles an hour. So power lines down, tree damage, that could be expected with this sort of thing as well as perhaps an electrical storm or two. Well see. So to sum it up, heavy rain will be moving into the bay area around midday today. It moves south and out by tonight. We get a brief break for much of thursday then two more storms, one on friday, one on sunday. And as we look live, the numbers that were starting out and heading into wednesday with are in the upper 40s a little chilly out of sfo, it could be some slowdowns at the airport with rain developing.

Its kind of setting the stage for what happens later in the day and what happens later in the day is we get some strong cells coming down from the north. And these going to give us some rain. The wind, the potential for a thunderstorm, and then we get a break tomorrow before the next one comes in on friday. And then another one on sunday. So expect wet today. But dont think that this is all that were getting this earlymorning stuff because you can see that later in the afternoon, by about 3 00 we have widely scattered some heavy cells first concentrating on the north bay, and then later in the day in time for the evening commute of course, bang we get hit with some heavy cells and thats when we looking for a better chance towards afternoon and evening of some of thunderstorms happening around the bay area.
