flood warnings and flood advisories posted for areas in teal and green, meaning we are seeing standing water on roadways. our smaller streams and creeks are overflowing their banks, so it's going to take some time for this water to recede. we'll keep it at a level two for the next hour. that heavy rain is exiting, but again, problems persist. that means a slower morning commute this morning. looking at the morning commute, we have those showers in the forecast in the next 90 minutes. then we'll start to dry out. but another storm is on the way. we'll talk about that coming up in six minutes. let's say hi to sue. good morning. >> and wet roads. of course, the big issue for your drive as well this morning we've got the hydroplaning standing water. we've got 47 incidents on the chp log. most of those solo spinouts, folks ending up wrong way in the center divider in the middle of lanes. so extra caution needed. yes, the metering lights have been turned on at the bay bridge. you can see the wetness on the camera and the roads, so give yourself a little extra time and we pop over to walnut creek. taillights headed towards highway 24 south, bound on 680. those headlights

heavier pockets in the south bay . some isolated showers about to move into the north bay. today is just one of those days where it's cloudy. we still have the chance of an isolated shower throughout the late morning and early afternoon along the coast. we'll go into the upper 50s around the bay shoreline. we will see a bit of a pause in a lot of the wet weather later on this morning, then into the afternoon. there's the chance of an isolated shower popping up once again. we'll go into the low 60s for daytime highs, and then inland is a similar story. we'll find another chance of

some isolated showers throughout the afternoon and the evening, with temperatures in the upper 50s. so it's a level two this morning until 7 a.m. as that heavy rain is exiting. but the problems do persist for the morning commute, with standing water on our roadways. it's partly cloudy and dry tomorrow, but kumasi our next storm arrives here wednesday morning. we'll detail that level one storm coming up in about eight minutes. >> thank you drew coming up, the health of 140 niner is key to potentially making it to the super bowl. what we are hearing about the availability of deebo samuel, then a former fire investigator, opening up about the key piece of evidence leading to renewed calls to take another look at scott peterson's murder conviction. and as we head to break, we are taking a live look outside right now. it is 613 and rainy out there, so make sure you're careful. a level two on our storm impact scale this morning. we'll be asthma. it can make you miss out on those epic hikes with friends. step back out there, with fasenra. fasenra is an add-on treatment for eosinophilic asthma that is taken once every 8 weeks.

got to come out and play much better than we did today. but we got another opportunity. that's all we can ask for. >> kickoff will be just after 330 sunday afternoon at levi's. the 40 niners are an early favorite. >> reese witherspoon is sparking a big debate. is it okay to eat snow? the actress shared a video on tiktok of her scooping up some freshly fallen snow into mugs, and then adding toppings before eating it. the video prompted other people to share their own snowfall recipes, but is it safe? a study published in 2016 found that snow can absorb the same toxic substances that come from car exhaust, but other researchers say fresh snow has very little bacteria. and if you do eat it, you should eat it before it's two days old. >> are you out here drinking rain? >> i mean sometimes, are you? open your mouth. oops. listen, when i was a kid, we did this. >> that's before it hits the ground. yeah. >> at least when i was a kid, we would scoop it up, maybe add

some food coloring to it, make it kind of like a shaved ice sort of thing. did you and i grew up just fine. i don't see anything wrong. did you? i mean, that's debatable, you know, that's really debatable. uh but i see nothing wrong with this. i really don't. it's fresh snow. yeah, and where they had snow? where she was, they had almost a foot of snow. so if you're taking it off the top and it's fresh snow, i mean, i mean, you're a kid. >> you eat all kinds of things. yeah >> the rule was if it's yellow, don't eat it. anything else? you're fine. right. >> if it's yellow, keep it mellow. yeah >> just keep it on the ground. everything else. i'm fine. you're fine. you wouldn't eat snow? no. that was like, part of the best part, you know, because when you're out there, all day, snowball fights, you need some water. you just grab this now? >> yeah, i've definitely done it. i'm not proud of it. >> no, i'm proud of it. okay there's nothing wrong with it. speaking of wet weather, let's take a look at live doppler seven. we do have some heavier showers persisting in the south bay, but the worst of this storm is exiting over the next 30 minutes. we have some isolated showers still developing off the coast, but we got soaked

overnight and that was just on top of a really wet weekend. so we do have issues when it comes to standing water. we have numerous flood warnings and flood advisories. in effect, those areas shaded in teal and green because we are actively seeing standing water on our roads. even our smaller streams and creeks came over their banks. so it will take some time for this water to recede. and that's just leading to a slower morning commute. when it comes to that standing water. and also there are some shallow landslides and trees down. it's just been a pretty active morning. temperatures right now were in the mid 50s. here's a future weather after 7 a.m. the heaviestrillionain is out, but for the rest of the day into the afternoon, we still have the chance of an isolated shower popping up. if one does pop up, it will be very light in nature and very isolated. so it's a mostly cloudy day. those temperatures in the low and mid 60s. i would take the umbrella with you out the door. you may need it this afternoon. tonight we get rid of the showers. the cloud cover stays with us and we may have some areas of dense fog developing. now future weather. tomorrow's bright and beautiful. we get a dry day before our next storm system arrives here wednesday morning. this is a

level one, but after this storm wednesday morning, we enter a very dry pattern that enters into the upcoming weekend as well. speaking of the weekend, it's a much different forecast for the niners this upcoming sunday. look at this a kickoff temperature near 70 degrees under dry skies and a lot of sunshine. by the fourth quarter, we're down to about 60 degrees. here's the accuweather seven day forecast. the next seven days for you. morning rain is exiting as we speak. it's partly cloudy tomorrow. there's those morning showers on wednesday and then a dry pattern sets up here by the end of the week and into the upcoming weekend. brighter skies and warmer temperatures 47 chp incidents on the log at this hour. >> standing water, hydro planning. those are all the issues that you're facing, and most of those accidents are solo spinouts ending up in the center divide and ending up blocking lanes. wrong way, you name it. so extra time, extra distance is the mantra we wet and rainy across the golden gate bridge. four lanes in the southbound. the caution light there on the bridge says slow down, and i couldn't say it any better

myself, so we'll follow that and head over to the richmond-san rafael bridge. not as rainy, but still slick on the roads for about an eight minute drive from richmond over towards san quentin and the marin county side of things. otherwise we can see green around very slow. a couple of earlier incidents this morning on the altamont. those are cleared, but you've got the damage remaining. standing water and flooding on 84 and on 101. so yeah, just to be careful guys. >> thank you sue. now we're checking in with ginger zee who is live with what's coming up on gma. >> good morning ginger. good morning to you reggie and kumasi. >> it's great to be with both of you. so coming up here on gma we do talk about that storm on your side of the country. but we've also got one moving through the middle west mid-south. we'll talk about all of that. and the big warm up in a lot of places. also the race for the white house and the shakeup in the gop primary. ron desantis is dropping out. so how that could impact the race ahead of tomorrow's new hampshire

tighter, showing you those pockets of downpours that are moving through this morning. here's a live look. this is san jose showing you that rain on the lens this morning. and for a lot of us that standing water is leading to a slower morning commute. we have flood warnings and advisories posted for the area shaded in green parts of the north bay, the santa cruz mountains, parts of the south bay. because we do find areas of standing water, even our smaller streams and creeks have overflowed their banks. but the good news we're only at a level two, a moderate storm for the next 30 minutes. the heavy rain is exiting, but the problems do persist over the next couple of hours. when it comes to flooded roads and some trees down. so here's how the day shapes up. it's really cloudy out there today. the heavy rain is exiting, but still into the afternoon with the isolated chance of a light shower. but another storm system is on the way. we'll talk about that in nine minutes, but let's check in with sue and see how thatrillionainy morning commute is doing. >> yeah, a lot of incident. we've got 57 on the chp board, and we're going to go back to highway 87. the circle there shows some flooding in the right lanes as you head northbound.

it's just now clearing out. we saw quite a bit of traffic within the last five minutes. so that's the story this morning. standing water, hydroplaning, puddling and pooling. flooding where you would least expect it so and where you would expect it. as a matter of fact, san mateo bridge moving sluggishly with brake lights across the causeway with about a 17 minute drive from 8-80 over towards 101. and we've got had a few minor problems on the altamont pass. those have been cleared out of lanes. you can see the commute is over an hour from tracy, up and over the altamont. things pick up in livermore. otherwise the green is good. metering lights are on at the bay bridge. you can see the red there. that happened at about 535 this morning and very slow with flooding on 84, as well as southbound 680 leaving pleasanton for sunol. >> thank you. sue. the heavy rain is leaving some in the north bay partially underwater. people living along the russian river in guerneville are dealing

with flooding this morning. the water coming up to their knees and now the red cross is responding. we're going to check in with abc seven news reporter lena howland. she is in the santa rosa area. lena >> hey, richie. that's right. we are in the santa rosa area driving northbound on 101, where we are really only seeing a few light sprinkles at this hour, not causing too many issues on the roadway, but but that rain was a much different story. a little bit further up the road in guerneville. here's a look at some of the flooding up in guerneville, which for reference is about 20 miles northwest of santa rosa. this video was taken right around 230. this morning. you can see the water rushing by right in front of people's homes, and you can also see it filling the front yards of certain homes as well. that's why around 1:00 this morning, the sonoma sheriff and members of the sonoma county fire department had to go door to door to alert people that fife creek had breached its banks and was flooding the small community north of downtown. residents

were told to prepare to evacuate , but one local tells us this wasn't the first time to me, this is just pure negligence on the part of the state. >> uh- for not rectifying the situation. many years ago. it's not like this doesn't happen all the time. it does happen all the time. when it rains, when we have a rainy season, even a short rain like this, this is not a this is not a heavy rain. this is nothing but look >> in response to the flooding, the sonoma county sheriff's office says the red cross has now set up a response team in the safeway parking lot in guerneville. now we are still making our way up to the guerneville area. now to see some of that flooding. and luckily we are only seeing some light sprinkles out on the roadway and a few wet spots. but it's still another important reminder to make sure that you are giving yourself just a little extra travel time before heading out the door this

morning. for now, reporting live in santa rosa, lena howland, abc seven news. >> thank you lena, people in guerneville have been dealing with issues all weekend, including a landslide. abc news spoke with cindy dawson and she says she's feeling anxious, scared and worried after that ground gave way just feet from her hillside home on saturday. the landslide prompted sonoma county inspectors to yellow tag her home. that means limited entry at the property. firstrillionesponders say the slide is about 30ft wide, six feet deep with mud doors. anne says she and her husband are leaving their house until it's safe to go back. >> got our rv out of storage and we'll be staying in an rv park until we figure out what to do in case we go from. i like to say river view to river front. if the house decides to slide down the hill, we might end up with river front. suddenly that's a joke. >> she says she's working with the county and keeping her fingers crossed that the hillside around her home stays
