Bart service has not been interrupted. Ac Transit Service has been interrupted there. Lots of rain and slick roads throughout the area. The storm comes at the same time as californias first snow pack survey of the year. Were not off to a good start. Not much snow and not much rain. Jeff, what do you expect . I think the second leg will be fast moving across the bay area. We had the first part of the storm during the early afternoon. The Second Branch is primarily offshore. It has produced a few lightning strikes as well. Closer look shows two areas. This one had seven lightning strikes in the past half hour. Its pushing toward santa cruz and also right toward our coast tallow kags. Close to the San Francisco, theres some heavier rainfall offshore. Lightly impacting the sunset district at 6 36 tonight. Now, were going to track a lot more. You can see thunderstorm chance tonight. Spotty rain at 11 00 p. M. Tomorrow a few isolated showers for the commute. Keep the umbrellas handy. A new s
Lets start our coverage with chief meteorologist, jeff ranieri whos tracking whats left of tonights storm. It was a quick blast of Winter Weather tonight that brought more rainfall in 24 hours than we saw for all of december. You can see the loop here from this evening showing some of the heaviest rainfall from the peninsula and downpours from the south bay to the east bay. In terms of the totals, some of the highest coming from the the east bay,. 56 from oakland,. 5 from foster city. On the radar right now were still dealing with areas of rainfall in the east bay. This is the last leg of consistent rain moving through concord, pleasanton, and back into livermore and down from san jose stretching to morganton as well. Tomorrow morning, the rainfall will be less than coverage. A few scattered showers at 9 00 a. M. Check this out, by 7 00 p. M. Tomorrow night a brand new storm moves into the bay area. I have the full time line track on this at 11 19 tonight. Rain here, snow back east. A
Saying did you feel it and a lot of people describe it as a jolt and then some rolling. Now, with any earthquake that we have occurring on the hayward fault of course we pay very close attention to that and we will continue to monitor for the potential of any after shocks as we go into the next several hours. We also have watching for some of that rain thats been moving through the bay area with some of those light showers that still linger as the heaviest rain has moved off to the east. I will have more on this and a look at the microclimate forecast coming up in just a few minutes. Just as kari was speaking the usgs changed that magnitude estimation, they are down grading it just a fraction of a point, 4. 4 now. Right. Certainly the epicenter of that was in berkeley and today in the bay pete suratos continues our coverage this morning, he is in berkeley near the epicenter. I know you felt the shaking early in morning from home. Reporter yeah, thats right, marcus, of course, were gett
Paper. That jolt felt by so many people throughout the bay area. Kari hall was one of the first on air, what can you tell us about the quake . We havent had aftershocks since then, and we continue to monitor for that, also for the potential of this being just a floor shake. Right now we are seeing the magnitude at 4. 4, which happened at 2 39 this morning as we mentioned, just to the east of hayward. Just to the east of berkeley on the hayward fault. And we closely monitor all of the quakes on the hayward fault because the last dtt major earthquake we had was way back in 1868, and that was a magnitude 7. 0. Then we had 30 people killed, and that was known as the great San Francisco earthquake until of course the one in 1906 on the ann andres fault. Ill talk about our Weather Forecast as the rain clears for now, another round coming on the way early tomorrow morning. More on that coming up in just a few minutes. All right. Thank you very much. Also new, just moments ago, San Franciscos
Feel the jolt and the back and forth shaking motion. And the number one reason reason is of course that it was shallow. But the second thing we look at is the shallow nature allows the primary and secondary energy waves to travel farther reaching more of the bay area. And thats why so many of us had the perceived notion that it was higher than 4. 4 magnitude. Lets look at the primary and secondary waves. Primary waves usually arrives first hence the name. This travels lieu rock and water. Thats what arrives in the big boom first experienced all the way down to san jose. We had reports of that. Secondary wave that only travels through rock and soil. But thats where you get the back and forth motion. We had reports of that from the north bay down to the south bay. Most of the bay area, bottom line, felt the p and s wave and due to the shallow nature. Now its simple to forget but always remember drop cover and hold. If you feel that big jolt first, the primary wave you may have time to se
