Havent had any reports from a couple other Russian Rivers. A little bit of rain trying to work its way in. Theres not much to work with right now. Everythings to the north. Theres plenty of moisture out here, and theres a lot of rain farther to the north as you head up towards eureka, arcadia, ferndales picked up a half of inch of rain. The moisture ban is stalled out to the north. Thats why the north bay is in line a little bit. This afternoon this dips for a enough south well get the rest of the bay area in on some rain. Temperatures in the 50s. Theyre not going to move. Theres plenty cloud cover out here but you want to see little bit more in the way of dynamics, jet stream overall.

As we push in here, this is 101 southbound, the cars coming towards you right now, this is the southbound commute, and you know, the cell that moves through this area left some moisture out on the roadways here, so the roads are fairly slick at this point. Youre definitely going to want to take it easy as youre heading out the door.

Still a lot more rain is coming, and that means youre going to want to take it easy on the roads. Will we get a decent soaking here in the bay area, it tends to lead to more accidents with those slick roads. As this storm arrives, the chp is urging everyone to take it slow and leave extra room between you and that car in front of you.

The audit report basically states that the oakland Fire Department needs to do more in things like inspections and clearing outrush, especially out here in the Oakland Hills. With the exception of today its typically very dry. The fire back in 1991 killed 25 people, destroyed 3,000 properties but a recent oakland city audit found that there is a lackluster culture when it comes to inspecting the more than 20,000 homes here in the hills. City auditor Courtney Ruby tells the oakland tribune this is important because peoples lives are at stake. They found a lack of Quality Control when it came to inspections. Property owners in the hills are responsible for taking care of the overgrown vegetation that could pose a fire threat. If its not taken care of, the city could hire an outside contractor is then bill the owners. The audit found only 11 were meaning hundreds of other homes left unsafe. The audit also found that budget cuts were also partly to blame as some inspectors hours were reduced to parttime status. Take it back out here live, just recently east bay voters rejected a 78 a year property tax. Help fund wildfire prevention and a small portion for inspections.
