Anne. Reporter it is raining right now in mill valley here in the north bay off of 101. And i met a Hardware Store where they are very well prepared for anything that may come. Now, you just mentioned were not expecting any flooding. Were expecting any washouts, just mainly more nuisance when it comes to puddles. Boy, compared to last week at this time, its drier. But people are going to be ready for anything because of the possibility of flooding here in the north bay. They also have materials here at goodmans hardware where you can sandbag if you would like to, as well.

The victim is a 16yearold girl and functions like a 7 yearold. This is by far one of the most sickening cases i have seen in my career as a Police Officer that someone as mr. Atkinson can take advantage of someone of this stature. That victim walked away from a group home in oakland a week ago. Atkinson is said to have forced her into his home in San Francisco. She was found on a muni bus two days later. You can help police in your spare time all while sitting in front of your computer.

If approved, the closures will go into effect january 1. It comes after the district burned through its cash reserves because of a loss of property taxes in that failed tax measure on the november ballot. The countys top fire Officials Say they will have to do even more now with less. We should have roughly 600 firefighters on our staff. Currently we have roughly 250. So were only at about 44 . So any further degrading or reduction of our service just puts us further behind the power curve. Contra costa Fire District serving some 600,000 people over 300 square miles. More stations could close this summer, as well.

And the disney princesses appearing on your tv though for a price the only way you will get to see them for years coming up. ,,,,,,,, it is. I put my umbrella in my car this time of so im prepared. You listened to me. I was listening for once. Im prepared. You know, this is not like last week. We had those real big storms rolling through the bay area and strong gusty winds. Today well see a little soaker early on and this afternoon things break up but we have already had over an inch of rain in the past 24 hours in some of the north bay locations. You can see this cold front work its way onshore right now. A bigger band of moisture off the coastline but still, were picking up pockets of moderate to heavier amounts of rainfall if you are traveling along the 580 right now, watch out toward richmond, el sobrante, we are seeing good showers there. But thats going to push through and go south a bit. So out the door, were expecting some rain early on this morning. But by the afternoon becoming partly cloudy, maybe a lingering shower but not much but then it looks like dry weather is going to return for the foreseeable future and i think the biggest concern will be fog as we head in toward the weekend. So a bit cloudy and wet around the bay area as the cold front finally pushing its way through the bay area right now but things are going to be settling down. Around the state youll find some wet traveling conditions out and about in the high country again the base is very high with the storm system so youre talking about rain at lake level and 45 degrees in lake tahoe, 53 yosemite. A Winter Weather advisory is up for about 6500 to 7,000 feet. Thats where were expecting snow, maybe another 4 to 8 of snow there today and that will last until about 10 a. M. That should be brought down. Lets time it out a bit. The cold front sliding through right now. Then its going to slowly sag its way to the south so by 10 00, a lot of rain around the bay area. Even some showers into the south bay. And then as we head toward the afternoon, it begins to break up and then i think were done with the rain for maybe 5, 7 days, maybe even longer so this is about it. Then we are going to catch a nice break. Afternoon temperatures into the 60s in the south bay, 50s at the coastline, youll see 60s also into the east bay so not a real cold system sliding on through. 50s and 60s in the north bay and then the next couple of days well keep the temperatures down but the rain will be gone. The biggest concern will be tule fog in the late night and earlymorning hours but staying dry right through the weekend. Thank you.
