But in extreme impact up in the Sierra Nevada where that snow is going to be falling. Unprecedented plea heavy over the
That door tried to keep it close. But it long line its first wide open than a job doors stay open now to its not getting closed anytime soon. So we are looking at big storm system on its way. A good dose of rain for the bay. But really what im focused on mostly its just how heavy that snow is in the sierra and dont be taking it lightly. What i say do not be heading up there the next several days. Roadways will be impossible to travel on its 5 to 12 feet of snowfall will be piling up. Baring everything up there in the upper elevations looking outside the bay area, a much calmer predicament for us. We will be looking at showers but our Flooding Risk is actually pretty nonexistent. Small streams have actually really lowered a lot the past few weeks, which has been good news. So any rainfall just going to drain right into those rivers and streams as it should. We are looking out there at that rain and snow really pushed in on the Northern California at this point. Nothing here locally just

Moderate. Just a few areas of heavy drizzle and mist we are seeing the heavier rainfall on its way later on today. And you can spy that across Northern California. This is a big system in comes along with the rush of cooler air cold front right here in the speckle nature of that cloud cover behind it. Cellular clouds. This is a sign of unsettled, very cold air. A chance of thunderstorms as this cooler air moves in as well as just huge cool down in temperatures to that will allow snow to fall to lower in lower elevations. The next several days. This is this afternoon for the bay. Thats when well see our most likely chance of thunderstorms and heavy are areas of rainfall. Snow up in the sierra only falls at lower and lower elevations into tomorrow night, especially in saturday morning could see some snow in some of our bay area mountaintops on those days.
