Beautiful shot of the city in the bay bridge. Right now the leading edge of the storm is already bringing in some showers to the bay area. Needless to say crews spent the day cleaning storm drains ahead of the rain and the potential flooding it could bring. We found public works crews in San Francisco using vacuum trucks today to make sure tens of thousands of catch basins were free of leaves and litter. Our chief meteorologist bill martin is tracking this storm. As you mentioned they are seeing some showers out there. Just real light prefunnelling stuff. Nothing big. But the big stuff will be here in the first round of real rain late tonight and early tomorrow morning. Weve got a couple of systems we are tracking. We have been talking all week on sunday night or sunday morning. And here is your saturday system. Here is the strongest part of the storm. Its right in here. Thats your saturday night sunday morning. There is that plume of moisture. Blining for the bay area. Its the atmospheric river, Pineapple Express or subtropical moisture tap. There it is. The moisture is moving in. The rain is just the copius amounts of moisture. Its not just for the San Francisco bay area, but it will be from Northern California all the way south to santa barbara. Everybody is getting wet with the rainfall now. Mainly up around fairfield and santa rosa getting some reports of the drops out there. Here is the morning for you the rain will start. 7 00 a. M. Its going pretty good with the good thing. Tomorrow afternoon, it is at least the models that will need to break it off and then look right here with the problem. This area down here, you can see where it is coming from the south and the moisture tap. Thats the problem for you right here. Thats what we are worried about for sunday morning. This thing will start to move in on sunday morning and they dont just do that. Thats 6 00 a. M. And this thing will go for a while expecting a lot of rain.

Tonight we have more sandbags than cars at this late hour. Reporter well the creek is actually looking pretty low, but good luck convincing people this is not something to be worried about. Many people here we have talked to either remember the flood of 2005 or heard stories about it. So when they heard theres going to be a lot of wet weather this weekend they went over to the free sandbag area. It was like a field trip race. People were racing it seemed like to fill up their sandbags then run them to their car. We saw people with 20 or more sandbags hoping to go back to their house to build a dam around their front doors. The struggle is real. Shovels, pack, and haul sandbags to your door before the water makes it there first. Can you count . 22, i think. Every 15 minutes more sand comes. And so do the people. Go ahead and park anywhere. We have a house thats on a hill. So we need to make sure the water doesnt get into the windows and the doors as it goes around the back. Because it will get pretty cold in the backyard. Even if they have not experienced a summer flood, everyone knows it could happen. We have the 2005 floods, but we only had a close call just a few weeks ago. So it did happen any time. 2005 we were not here yet. And we heard about the stories of 2005. Reporter public works free sandbag area was almost like a party. Kids showed up just to help. We want to do it for the community. It feels really good to help. Reporter it has worked getting the shovels full of dirt into the bags. I think probably 20. Because me and tony are using small shovels. Reporter families look like bobsled teams pushing the heavy carts out. It was lifting them. Theyre heavy. Sand is suppose to be light when you make sand castles, but not these ones. Some will come with a flood risk. We bought the building a year ago. This is our first winter. So i knew what i was getting myself into, but now the reality hits. Maybe i have to take some swim lessons. Reporter hopefully this is their last trip for sand balls. I just put floors in last week. Im hoping they stay dry. It seems like almost everyone here in the downtown area is prepared to do a sandbag city out here. We also talked to pg e and they had staging points. It happened all over the northern bay and also in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Their main concern is actually the wind. They say thats the biggest culprit in bringing down some power lines.
