But this will drop steadily in for the north as we head through the day tomorrow. A dry start across the bay area. But the showers are moving into the north bay already as early as lunchtime. With the peak of the rain arriving around early afternoon. Tapering off quickly. This will move through rapidly. It wont amount to a whole lot. The best chance for rain around San Francisco and oakland will occur from mid to Late Afternoon and the early evening hours. The farther south you ago into the Santa Clara Valley and the Oakland Hills into the inland parts of the east bay is where the rain chances will be lighter. Maybe a few hundredths of an inch of rain in those locations. Rain chances will taper off tomorrow night into early sunday. Good news for the golden gate half marathon. Partly cloudy skies as the race starts at 6 50 on sunday morning. Temperatures just about 50 degrees, which is nice running actually.

It wont be a complete washout if you have any outdoor plans on saturday morning. Its looking okay. The outdoor plans on sunday is looking okay. Sunday afternoon and evening, be flexible. Have an indoor alternative. Take a look at the big picture perspective. The wet weather is dropping about 12 hours from now. Take a look at futurecast and those showers beginning to move in. By late morning and really for lunchtime for the rain to hit the ground. Dropping by the golden gate about mid afternoon. While the activity will be scattered, not everybody is guaranteed to get rain with this. Its a nice little rainmaker, maybe a tenth of an inch or so. Moving through quick and largely, seeing the showers quiet down through the evening. The last of the sprinkles quieting down by midnight. But then break into the action will keep host. The weather is looking mostly favorable. A few showers trying to sneak in before the sun goes down. More likely the heavier rain will hold off until late evening, overnight. This will be more widespread. More substantial, not enough to cause any flooding problems. Just beneficial rain for the bay area. That moves off to the east, so were back into an off and on commute with showers continuing through the rest of monday, likely in place for the evening commute as well. Were not done. Likely on tuesday, thatll taper off the linger showers on wednesday. Then well dry out as we head towards the end of the workweek. Maybe a chance for showers by next friday, but thats really far down the line. The total chance for rain about an inch or so. And it returns to purple. At least 1. 5 inches of rain. Some of the highest spots could pick up to 3 to 7 inches of rain. Two to three feet of snow and the high sierra, at least one foot within the winter storm warning that goes into effect on sunday afternoon. It continues through early on wednesday. Right now its not rain, its just fog and plenty of it. Temperatures in the low to mid50s. Those numbers wont change a whole lot the rest of the night. Upper 40s and the low 50s to start the day on saturday. And high temperatures before the rain arrives, only around 60 north of the golden gate. Everybody else in the low to mid60s along the coast where the temperatures will reach the upper 50s. A few degrees below average, but the warmest weather were going to see for a while. As the rain chances go up, the temperatures go down. It will be rather raw out there on monday and tuesday. Wet and cool with the highs in the 50s. Again monday and tuesday definitely the wettest days of the sevenday forecast. And we will dry out on wednesday and thursday. Temperatures dont warm up a whole lot. Then theres another chance for showers in the forecast by the end of next week. Just a chance at this point.
