1:59 am
shows a few radar freckles overnight. a few light showers, hitting the coast already. the bulk of the heaviest rain is not until the morning. charging across the rest of the bay area heading through the afternoon. you can see this stripe here on future cast. narrow rain bed, associated with the heaviest downpours and the strongest winds, advancing across the bay area right during the peak of rush hour on wednesday. it will be sloppy out there on the roads, both hands on the wheel. watch for debris with the gusty winds. the heaviest rain moves off to the east. light to moderate rainfall. continuing much through the night. heaviest rain is falling, you will be slow to receive because of the light to moderate rainfall with off and on showers throughout most of the day on thursday. locally heavy downpours, at loft gaps in between that hopefully will allow the waters to recede. let's talk about winds, notice it already, starting the day, strongest wind gust with the heavy rain moving onshore by late plorning and continuing
2:00 am
into the afternoon. we are talking about 40-50 mile-an-hour gusts along the coast with 30-40 mile-an-hour gusts inland. everyone with the wind advisory with the high wind in effect. the winds will die down as the heaviest rain pushing off to the east by tomorrow evening. how much rain? let's take a look at the amounts and in the circles on our map. that is the amount that we generally expect to pick up. a few locations highlighted. san jose. we expect an inch and a quarter of rain. if we hit the jackpot, two inches of rain possible in the low end of the possibilities over half an inch. again, we are evaluating not just the amount we expect but also what is on the low and high end of the spectrum. an inch, inch and a half of rain. the range of possibility, narrower for concord than san francisco where we expect over an inch of rain. if the city hits the jackpot, 2-1/2 inches of rain could add up. for the
2:01 am
north bay, 2-3 inches of rain. if the system is efficient at squeezing out rain for a longer period of time. could pick up four inches of rain just with the first wave of rainfall that will be moving through. then, the sierra, it will be a snow maker, winter storm warning is in effect for the high sierra. going through until 4:00 on saturday morning. it will be high-level snow event to begin with. the snow levels will come down in elevation as we hit the end of the workweek and the weekend. lake level, 12 inches of snow. higher peaks picking up 2-3 feet. more rain on the way and more snow for the sierra heading into sunday, sunday night, into monday, another atmospheric river that is going to bring the potential for wind damage. you add up all of the rain chances over the next seven-days, this is the outlook from the weather prediction center. most of the pay area, 2-4 inches of rainfall. look at the numbers for the north bay. that is in the community. 4-6 inches of rain. higher elevations in the
2:02 am
mountains and coastal ranges could pick up 8 plus inches of rain over the next seven-days. we will be watching with heaviest rains, thursday, friday, saturday, they will be more miss than hit that is the driest day. more rain, more wind on sunday. lingering into monday and potentially even into tuesday of next week. it will be a week full of rain chances all of the way into next week. >> hits and misses and spotted showers, i am trying to come up with album names for you >> keep working on it. >> i will keep trying. up next paul, a lot of

2:11 am
>> if it is on the upper >> yeah. yeah. from the floor up. >> but, i will say super bowl, i went to super bowl 50 in santa clara. it is not the same vibe as a regular season game because a lot of corporations with seats you don't see as many of the hard core fans. >> yes. >> that is what makes it. >> the championship games are more fun. >> yes. super bowl is fun as a person sitting on my couch. >> yes. >> to be clear we are just trying to make ourselves feel better. >> that we are not going. >> not even us and we have the game on our air. where do we complain about that? >> we don't. >> no. >> this is it. >> we pipe down. >> this is the complaint. >> we lock it down.
