>> thanks so much for joining us here on the kron. 4 morning news. i'm stephanie lin. >> it's sunday, february, the 4th. let's get right over to dave spahr for the latest on your weather conditions today. >> good morning, stephanie. good morning, everybody. and heavy rain across at least portions of the bay area. everybody is getting continuous rain that occurred from overnight and more is expected today. now the heavy stuff that looks like it's going to break up a little bit as we approach around noon. however, it will rain all day and really into monday. it looks like as well. here's again, the current snapshot of what's going on. you see a nice package down there in the south bay, santa cruz, mountains of intense heavy rains going on. also up there to mount hamilton, too. but then meanwhile, out to sea with the rotation of this low, that's your future into the south bay. and they've been getting a lot of heavy rain and more is to come. that's why we have current flooding as we speak. meanwhile, here's the beauty shot, if you will, of half moon bay, again, overcast in very stormy, very different from what we saw yesterday. here's the storm. kind of almost isolated, if

you will, to cut off really from the stream of moisture. it's been getting, but it has quite a bit to which to work with. it will take a long time really work its way out. in other words, going to shake off rain entirely even in the next day or even 2 days will still be in the forecast, although this intense rain is going to be waiting. the next thing we're watching our winds, remember everything we've had on the ground. the saturation, you add the winds to it and winds are going to be a little bit more intense this afternoon. that could be problematic. current snapshot of where we stand. winds are say 10 miles per oakland, 20's, you can see in many pockets, even 32 down the mountain view, mostly from the east. but a little shift coming in from the southeast. again following where that low's going. we of course we have a flood watch. that's everybody. meanwhile, the flood warning occurring out of the santa clara valley. as you can see to the south. this will be with us all day and with heavy rain upstream. not a surprise. we continue on with the wind part of our forecast. there you see until 10 this evening with windy conditions to be found. heavy

winds for the santa cruz mountains along the coast and some of the higher elevations in the east bay, little dent into south of monterey looks like they could have possibly even hurricane strength type winds, not a hurricane, but its hurricane strength possible again, south of monterey bay. it's outside of our area a kind of monitoring that i haven't see the winds pop yet, but that's still possible. 50's. we're looking at over much of the bay right now, somewhat mild. 55 san jose. meanwhile and a 48 santa rosa, we're not going to see a lot of mercury moving around even all this week for today. it's telling us that might be a little bit of a let up on the winds rather the rain this afternoon except for maybe the south bay. but then again, the issue to watch those winds and that's going to be around all night tonight as put this all together for you coming up in just a bit, stephanie. all right, dave, thank you. >> officials in the south bay are warning of possible flooding this morning. one of the biggest areas of concern is along the guadalupe river. we continue our team coverage with tiffany justice. she's live for us in san jose this morning. we're really looks

like it's coming down out there, too. funny. >> yes, stephanie, we just arrived into san jose a few moments ago. it is really coming down hard. the rain is coming down really hard and there are strong winds even driving here from the city. i had rip my steering wheel both hands because the winds were so strong driving down. now since we have arrived here in san jose, the rain has been coming down hard as well. we got the guadalupe river right behind us. the sure if you're really able to see it, but it is really following strong and it's quite high. and that is the concern from city officials. there is a flood watch. and as you drive around the small neighborhood, roads and streets, their signs up cautioning people about the possibility of potential of flooding. so just be aware. officials are also concerned with the santa cruz they're going get a lot of rain as well and that rain and that water is going to feed into the guadalupe river.

>> and that is why officials are really paying attention to rivers at this time. and with this storm in case there is more concern about flooding. we're going to stay here. bring you live coverage here in san jose with this storm that we're we're experiencing right now throughout the morning. stephanie, back to you. all right, stephanie, thank you so much for your live coverage this morning. >> emergency response efforts are in place now across the bay area. kron four's justin campbell reports on the resources available to help people in marin county. have the risk of a potential, a mudslide or maybe a debrief all because of the saturated soils. the national weather service model show the atmospheric river is expected to bring up to >> 2 inches of rainfall in most parts of the bay area and increased risk of flooding and something much worse people experiencing homelessness to have nowhere else to go. the opportunity. get out of that wet weather and stay dry and warm overnight. lane ii hendricks is a communication

>> all right. taking a live look now from our mount tam camera. not much you can see here at this hour, really because again, of the stormy conditions outdoors. but you can just make out those trees getting pushed around by the heavy winds out there. let's check in now with dave. >> look at the lower the camera, doesn't it? just in the woods there? look at that. >> yeah. if there was a little bit more light on the camera lens, you could probably make out the water droplets to from all the rain. that really looks a nasty there. and it is a probably underscoring what

today is going to be like morning, stephanie. good morning. all the heavy rain we talked about it played out. it's here. >> we're probably in the zenith of of the rain, part of the activity, although whatever damage was done, so to speak to the hydrology of the system is going to take a lot of play out. so you can still hear about rivers and so forth having flooding issues tomorrow into tuesday, even and there is rain that remains in the forecast. but again, the intense stuff it's going to play out of the next couple of hours. looks like the lion share is going to go into the south bay's. you can see a nice collection of heavy rains there. a nice collection of cells out to see here. why the flood advisory has been posted up here in the north a little bit for the next about hour or so because this has to play out on top of all the heavy rain that we had. so just kind of give you animation to get a general idea where it's coming from its broad, a coming up from the southwest and really behind it. that's kind of its kind of cut off from the major jet of moisture down to hawaii here. so it's kind of on its own with the moisture and as but it has plenty. but the next part of the forecast we're really worried about are

those winds. snow coupled with everything we're talking about sfo looking at delays of 2.45 almost 3 hours given the fact what the forecast is calling for today. i don't see that improving that much today coupled with the delays are already happening, causing a domino effect for all the scheduling today. so definitely check your airline's or fade. but it's coming into town finding out what their situation is with that because, stephen, the weather is not helping here. now, i know if you can make this out, but this i just took out the radar park is a clouds a what the severest prediction center likes to look at. and it we'll see some general thunder showers there. we don't see that very often. and our neck of the woods and hear writer from monterey bay to the south. you can see it's a little darker green there. now that means the potential of a slight risk of maybe some severe weather. that means those thunderstorms that produced those heavier winds. we already have hurricane force wind that's been posted down there south of monterey bay already in place. but

these folks write a kind of cover the whole country in the local weather forecast office. will we deal with they'd make the amendments and changes and so forth and they monitor this as well. right now, again, we don't have any of obvious warnings going on. expect to see some lightning strikes later on today. once we get some daytime heating, let's go to future cast for morning is going to be quite busy with intense heavy rains. we get to 1 o'clock and you can see how it becomes much more scattered about what those heavier cells and then lighter rain elsewhere with finding some mountain snow is occurring up there around tahoe as well. now the winds kicking into the afternoon they actually going to be building so all day. it's going to be that same kind of situation. spotty showers into tonight. tomorrow morning. looks like they'll be still those spotty should say spotty showers, spotty, heavy embedded rain in there with lighter showers going on elsewhere. that's going to pop up. move on pop-up move on type scenario. but it looks like we do have some collection of some heavier ones lingering all the way till monday morning. now it looks like the sky might open

up a little bit, but you can see how quickly it fills back up again, particularly on monday and that gives energy to the atmosphere. when you see breaks like that to kind of heat up the ground a little bit, you may get some thunder showers, collection of rain. we get miss the first hit takes us to tonight. almost midnight. everybody has about a quarter of an inch of rain added to what they got in the rain bucket from right now. and then we go all the way out through monday. this kind of what i'm talking about tuesday morning. maybe we'll get to about an inch or so. but some areas are getting a bonanza work. look at that. san jose getting almost 2 inches beyond this point. right now there's hayward at inch and a half winds are coming in from the southeast. they're going to come more from the south as we venture forward. and this is what they're worried about with power outages. could be problems later today. even if we don't get a lot additional rain because of saturated grounds that's out there to monday's. you can see so putting it all together for you. heavy rain, wind. so the the wind part of the forecast this afternoon, pockets of some heavy rain, lower 50's for your temps early week. unsettled showers, breezy,

cool 40's and 50's for highs and then late in the week thursday, a passing system beyond that, mike, into somewhat of a dry patch, so-called 61, san francisco. 62 for san jose oakland at 61 and only lower 60's. there on the map there. so that's a sinner. we're looking at a step in the big issue now is whatever flooding has already been put into the system. hydrology will take care of it in the next 48 hours. but more important. it's for today. it's those winds and power outages are polls that might get knocked down because of the saturated ground. yeah. some really concerning situations that are brewing out there right now. and you took a look at flight delays to just yeah, they're nasty. it's almost 3 hours at sfo. so have anybody with us want to check. okay. thanks so much, dave. >> well, taking a live look no at the snow in lake tahoe. quite a thick layer out there. the donner lake, a camera showing us that life perspective. and just that one lone car but pass through again, just best to stay indoors, if you can, with all of this severe weather that

>> all right. we are tracking the wet weather and that severe stormy conditions. those severe stormy conditions brewing outside in the bay area right now and this is storm tracker. 4 radar showing us that widespread rain. check in now with dave spahr for more on what we need to know about all of this. hey, good morning, stephanie. good morning, everybody. and the intense rainfall we talked about playing out overnight in greeting us this morning as well. >> now that's going to be playing out mostly in the south bay as what we see the most intense rain occurring right now, there is a package that's also heading to the north bay, too, which is why they have a flood advisory that will be for about another hour or so. meanwhile, the south bay, they're looking at all day to day of flooding issues because later, heavy rain that's expected as well. and what this means is that little package you see there out to sea that moving towards the east and then for cause a sudden flooding of rivers and streams like that because of already saturation of that red is a warning that we've been

talking about in the south bay. that's where tiffany is covering what's going on there. and they already have a problem. and that will be till all the way to tonight. but until 10:00am on monday is when that flood risk remains for everybody and there were still be rain. after that point, they may be possibly extending that to see exactly what we get. but really this afternoon for a lot of folks want to put our attention to some of those winds coming our way. they're actually going to pick up a little bit this afternoon. the coverage area's total. everybody is under a wind advisory and then the heavier wind. you can see where that dark or tan color is that gusts. we can get the on 40 miles per hour easily for the entire region and with saturated ground that can drop over utility poles and all this weather is causing delays at sfo. about 2.45. is what they're saying on delay times, maybe up to 3 hours. so if you have anybody coming or going there, they want to check ahead. temperature check for you. mostly in the 40's and 50's on the board. there are the current winds easterly now, but we're going to be shifting more southeast and ultimately from the south throughout the late afternoon

and into the evening as well. we should say goodbye to the winds as we get to tonight. and this is yet another point. as you can see, the flashing going on. a 2 o'clock. it is possible to see some thunder showers because once the sun has been up for a few hours, giving the best hitting it, can that starts motivating the atmosphere. you start to get a little bit the way some thunder showers. we'll have more on that. a longer range forecast with a check off some of this rain later on in just a bit. stephanie. all right. thank you. >> and officials in the south bay are warning of possible flooding today with the biggest areas of concern is along the guadalupe river was tiffany justice continues. our team coverage for us this morning. she's live for us in san jose right now. and tiffany, i see you've got the umbrella. you got the rain jacket on. how are things looking now? >> yeah, it is extremely rainy here in san jose. the rain is coming down quite hard and not only is rain coming down there. winds to deal with as well as we were driving heroes dealing with the winds. but we

do know that neighborhoods in this area there warned there are signs all these neighborhoods cautioning people about the possibility of flooding. those who live near the guadalupe river, which is right behind me. so officials city officials are concerned about flooding with this current storm that we are dealing with there saying that in san jose and surrounding areas, we're expecting to see 2 inches of rain within just 24 hours and even more significant rain is expected in the santa cruz mountains which will feed into the river. and that is why officials are watching rivers and streams and the high possibility of flooding. the national weather service is expecting the guadalupe river to reach flood stage is with water levels expected to peak around 10 o'clock this morning. now with this concern of flooding, san jose mayor matt mahan has issued a proclamation of local emergencies so that that they can bring mandatory evacuations of homeless in the area along waterway. we've

been here all morning long here in san jose dealing with the rain in and the that today would be a good day to stay inside and stay warm. back to you. all right, stephanie, thank you so much for live coverage this morning. and we continue our coverage of the storm now in the north bay and joining us live to give us an update on conditions out there is chief. >> polo and fall with the santa rosa fire department. good morning to you. hey, good morning. so chief, thank you so much for joining it walk us through the issue that's facing your residence at this hour. >> yeah. so the winds start to kick up early this morning with that. we have responded to several reports of trees trees into a as well as just keeping crews both from the fire department as well as our city streets and work crews pretty busy. that's not uncommon for most departments right now across the north radio tropics are and what i

call see sought supplies and a look at the pg e outage map and see the number of outages increasing that primarily along the coast, but also inland as well. >> walk us through some of the key things that residents in the area should be thinking about as we kind of hunker down given all these wet conditions out there. >> yeah, right now the forecast is definitely been spot we have what we refer promote automated weather stations that are initially put into our community following our wildfires here locally that we're kind of monitor fire conditions, but we use them to monitor this weather and and wet weather like this. with that. we have been seeing the gusts upwards into the low upper 30's right now. a pretty consistently throughout our which is likely leading to a lot of the debris down the roadway and and trees down. in fact, as we're talking right now, our department as well as sonoma county fire district responded to report of a tree down highway 101 with potentially a vehicle involved. so it really

highlights some of the concerns right now of conditions will likely be not only here in the north day, but a south bay as well as the winds continue to definitely one of those days that you don't. you doubt traveling limit that outdoor activities stay that the pair obviously for the potential of some power outages as well. yes, it's an important reminder for folks to really limit their travel if they given the severity of this weather. >> now, if someone is experiencing say power outage or they see a downed power line or even a downed tree has fallen on their property. what steps should they take? >> so really depends on what you're 16 you're in. you know, for us, just a tree whether down a roadway. we have non-emergency numbers that people can use. that's pretty common for most communities that way doesn't type emergency resources. but if seen that power lines are called, actually call 9-1-1, whether a true even if you're not 100%. sure. it's not a terrible thing to err on the side of caution. but we

definitely want to see some of those non-critical calls go to the non-emergency numbers that we can get either. again, a public through a city crew involves a if there is some sort of a power outage. you know, the last thing we want to see is is the use of definitely have your ready for your flashlights. and and again, just limit limit those outdoor activities and and be prepared for for potential some widespread power outages. and and lightly long power outages just with the number that you see on the screen right definitely going to be busy in the north day. and so typically when you used to have the power come back on relatively quickly, depending how materialized, a lot of those outages increase in time duration. >> and you know, we've known about this storm for at least the last several days. i'm sure that your team is has been well aware as well. when you walk us through the strategy in terms of staffing, have you increased resources for this weekend given this storm?

>> not for this here, the north bay, the conditions that we had last prompted us to do some pretty significant up staffing across the county there were couples task force of engines multiples, 3 south water rescue boat teams that were stopped up for this one with the intensity and severity of it looking like it's going to be in the south bay, we haven't put togeteer any a significant decrease in staffing, things could change conditions change. we always have the ability to bring in additional personnel, both from the fire department. public works street the comment. but right now with just the way we operate internally, is that how the you know, right now we're responding to sonoma county fire district. so the county of ponds and our district and vice versa, that's not that's pretty common for north day. so we help one another, especially call volumes. start to increase to ensure that coverage is in place. >> one more time just key safety reminders that people need to be keeping in for

today. and this weekend in general. >> yeah, just with the winds, especially here in the north just definitely limit that outdoor travel or take time slowdown getting where we need to the rainfall rates and totals really exceeded what we anticipated this morning. we've only had a little bit less than an inch of rain here. that's not to say it's not going to increase as the day goes on, but we're not expecting any widespread flooding at least here locally. definitely a uses ponding on the roadways as well as just a lot of debris. so just encouraging people to please slow down take time. it would mean get ing to where actually need to get any good if you don't need to be out beyond about driving, just stay home until settle down. >> great. and are there emergency alert services that people should be signing up for things that platforms that people should be turning to if they want to get the latest up-to-date information. >> yeah, again, that's could be nothing that's really depend on what jurisdiction you're in. a lot of cities

counties have a different various alert platforms, whether it's civic ready, whether it's nick soul. but on a larger most agencies will if if there is a true emergency will rely woodford's who is the wireless emergency alert system which breaks in your cell phone. the emergency alert system would break through a broadcast like this are your those are the high-level emergency alert systems. but knowing what options you have for your specific county or city for like here in summit county of still kohler, which is the of a kind of reverse 9-1-1, system. so it's never too late. know, google emergency alerts for your particular city or jurisdiction and see what comes up and make sure that you're signed definitely in the event that any flooding are. neighbors dictates that level of of alerting. >> got it. and while we have

you here in the remaining time, we have left a you represent santa rosa. obviously other certain. neighborhoods, areas in santa rosa. you know that your team is paying particular attention to when it comes to potential flooding concerns because we want to get the word out to those residents. >> yeah, you know, for the last several years our focus really was on the burnt store as the birds started really well. i know that weather service issued some of their concerns regarding the river burn scar down to the far south of but for up here, you know, that's one of the benefits that we have of of being a like, like, well, like santa rosa. we have storm drain systems are designed to handle what we refer as 10 year storm. so systems like this are arts, our storm trains systems do relatively well. the issues that we have is when people don't manage a lot of the debris on their own clear their own bettors, not clear in their own storm drains and that that debris

ends up migrating into city infrastructure county infrastructure leads to clogs when it's something like that. you never know what's actually going to end up backing up and lead to and issue area that just doesn't expect to to flood. that being said, yes, yes, we have some of our common areas that do slide when we get some of those high intensity rainfall rates but, you know, typically those areas will will the more of like a nuisance which will then clear within a matter of hours, most cases. but whether it's a flooded roadway that is legitimately flooded or some of those responding. we don't want to see people who are driving through. some of those close air is we want to see them heat into the caution. signs the closed signs definitely turn around. don't drown. is the same. and again, even on some of those nuisance, terry, is what you think is a minor little flooded driving through it may not seem like such a big deal to you, but it ends up doing property damage. somebody is landscaping or pushes water up the driveway into their garage. so just definitely stay out of flood waters and

and limit that outdoor trout drive into that. >> all right. some very helpful guidance. thank you so much to santa rosa fire chief paul lowenthal for joining us. allies you this morning. we appreciate it. and please stay safe out there. all right. stay with us here at kron. 4 for continuing storm coverage. just scan the qr code right there on your screen to be sent to our website there. you'll find the latest on closures, flooding outages and closures, flooding outages and more. we'll be right back with this ad? typical. politicians...

look now at the golden gate bridge this morning at 7.45. this sunday. and it's looking pretty damp out there with

just a touch of a breeze, at least along the bridge area. let's check in now with day for more. >> hey, good morning, 70. good morning, everybody. and meanwhile, that of the lower levels? that's right. it's a winter wonderland going on the mountains. half dome is checking in here. you get an idea of the fresh coating of snow they have which is continuing as we speak topple as well. of course, it's been that winter storm warning basically talking about levels at 5500 feet to about 7,000. they're talking feet. a couple feet, maybe up to 3. meanwhile, if you get higher than that, it's getting up to about 5 to 6 feet or so. when you get up to about 7,7500 feet and higher elevation. interesting little wrinkle here is that we may get to drop a little bit in terms the levels a bit as we go forward through the day today. here's the forecast. does call for that. we keep those temperatures in the 30's tomorrow in tuesday and wednesday. snow showers remain in the forecast. so machinery of the showers here remains the machinery for the snow

showers up in the higher elevations. this is what it looks like on the local radar. zipping back to the bay area and the heavy rain we've been monitoring has been in the south bay. you didn't hear about not a whole lot of flooding issues going up in the north bay, though there is a flood advisory has been posted because basically saying for local creeks and streams. and so for just be on the lookout for the next about our, they're worried about this little. so here. so as this plays out for today will probably be okay at least in the north bay in terms of any additional heavy rain going on. but for most thing to look out for is going to be those winds but stick to future cast for checking things out. there's the heavy rains today. you see how quote, breaks up with patches of heavy rain in bed. it at all that you daytime heating and this is where those thunder showers can pop up. so others it may not get a whole lot more. the rain bucket relatively speaking, but you can have some local problems in terms of these local severe thunderstorms popping up. let's take it all the way out to monday morning. relatively most areas, not seeing a lot

of rain, although there are lines of some heavier thunder showers or showers occurring. so they'll be some pockets of all of a sudden coming down like buckets. and then it goes away again. that will be the story for monday at daytime heating. and again, you can have some showers and some thunder showers because that low is so close to us like that. so this is going to be a scenario. we see the rotation here. it's funny dropping south on tuesday. the winds are out of the east shifting southeasterly induce out. it keeps us in the mild sector. that's why we don't get all that cold air down here yet. and you can see his latest all the way to monday morning. it still, but it's siding, but it's coming in from the southeast. so playing it all out. it's going to early in the week finding dipping to the south and it looks like a little bit of a break tries to develop on wednesday. there's a little bit more on thursday and then clearing out as we head on into next weekend. yes, a passing system, but if the models keep trending like this, it looks like a bit of a drier trend. temps for highs, lower 60's, not much higher than what we are right now. here's a longer range forecast. so think we can take

rain entirely out of the forecast. temps pretty much into the 50's as you can see, lowe's maintain in the 40's and even some upper 30's going on as well. so do funny, get some colder air in here. but we're still in the mild sector. it looks like it's running out of some of the the juicy tropical moisture is it's kind of cut off in the jet now. so that means we're we're not going to be isn't inundated with their as much rain as we already had. but it's going to the winds are going to watch, ok, so nice to hear that. we're going to be getting a bit of a break in the rain eventually, right? but we will have that spotty stuff going on into next week. so keep that in mind, too. good to know. thanks so much, dave. >> all right. well, new this morning, animal care and control of san francisco. they are reminding pet owners. >> to make sure they get all animals to safety. during the wet weather by law, any dogs left outside must have sturdy shelter with clean and dry bedding to protect themselves. people are encouraged to bring their pets indoors. if you see a dog with no shelter from this awful weather out there, please call the rescues. emergency response services at

welcome back to kron 4 morning news. good morning, everybody. and here's a live shot of radar. back to that. again, we're notice that little patch that broke open here, a little bit of run sfo. the sun actually peering out a bit. >> but the massive rain still remains in these pockets of heavier rain as well. we see one package about to hit the north bay. this is why the flood advisory was posted. that means hey, guys, watch streams and rivers and places that are prone to flooding may have issues develop in the next hour or so. meanwhile, in the south bay is tipping has been telling us already flooding problems and another cell upstream to happen. and that will play out later on this morning. so the morning hours are going to be treated. probably the heaviest mass rain for everybody, but that will taper off and will be pockets of heavier rain, spotty showers will also fill the day. but we're watching out for some thunder showers which may spark up. here's a look at all the motion computer once the pain, a little bit of snow going on up to the northern mountains a little bit. we know that's happening around tahoe now. some of the snow levels

actually, we may turn some of the snow at about 5500 feet in terms back to rain a little bit again associated with this massive mild air relatively speaking invading. it's going go to our north and then kind of retro grade back down south ultimately throughout the week. and that's why we'll see some more in the way of some showers later this week. sfo delays almost 3 hours again. the sun was just out about 15 minutes ago. don't let it for you. want to go back to this. the spc as we call it. the severe prediction center's maps that they do for us a little bit. this tan color here means they could be scattered. thunder showers going on today. we don't see that very often our neck of the woods. so it's worth noting that means the central valley, sacramento valley, but also important is a slight risk of some perhaps severe thunder showers that do cover monterey bay and points to the south. now they do already have hurricane force winds that are possibility, not a hurricane hurricane force. on that note, let's talk about our cyclones, right, our back yard here mid latitude. but by

this afternoon, as i mentioned, it becomes more spotty, but we're dealing with winds at this point. you have daytime heating and that's we get some thunder showers going on overnight. to get to sunday night. it's still some of the heat left of the day. these things start to fall apart a little bit. 08:00am. yeah, you have some spotty showers, but the sun may poke out a bit. add some more daytime heating. and again, you have some showers, perhaps some thunder showers, kind of delay in falling hurricane. sometimes it's no longer hurricane whatever. but it's still that cyclone. keep spinning around. you heat it up in a stretch to flare up during the day. just because there's more energy in the atmosphere. so this low was still in our backyard all the way through tuesday and it will facilitate the spotty showers. sometimes some rain, heavy rain and some time some thunder showers have to keep that in the forecast tuesday morning that are breaks happening. of course, in the skies are winds easterly shifting south easterly and then southern. but this is the issue are watching for today, as we've been told by a lot of utility folks because of the saturated ground, this can

pose problems. so again, prepare for perhaps power outages. not so much from the rain now, but it will be from those winds. we shake those off, by the way, by your monday morning. and that part of the forecast, at least we can retire of that heavy rain and wind. more importantly this afternoon, lower 50's for those highs. although some spots we're looking at better than that early in the week. unsettled showers, breezy all that stuff. cool with 40's for lows. 50's going on for your highs in late in the week. we might start to get into a break here into the weekend. not money in the bank, though. so still eyes for the sky for thunder showers, hails possibility. even water spout. you can get out to sea. 62 san jose. 61 going on for san francisco in open at 61. so we managed to scrape into some lower 60's along with a lot of 50's here, too. early part of the week, this low is kind of in our backyard. and even though it's like to be a mass of rain anymore, the will be, you know, pockets of some of that heavier rain going on there. maybe a thunder shower popping up again. when you get the apps for more energy just get that with kids and you give them candy, what happens?

>> there's going to be pockets are going continue to see that such as the south bay. we're experiencing some of this occurring up in the north bay as well. that's why the flood advisory being posted there. you see the yellows and the meanwhile down the peninsula. there's another little package to make note of as well. but the heavy rains continue in the south bay, too. so even though to santa cruz mountains usually provides the rain shadow. it wasn't enough to overcome course all of this. now the flood risk is with everybody here outside the advisory i just mentioned is the watch until 10:00am on monday. meanwhile, the flood warning down on the south bay. that's going to be all day as well. and then finally should expire. once we lose the heavy rains later today for much of the bay, the heavy rains will be departing by the time we get to around noon and into the early afternoon. so that's why the wind part of the forecast kicks in and with saturated grounds were concerned about downed power lines and utility poles. this until 10 o'clock this evening. so it could be around all day will be all the south and southeast through much of the

day. and then the dark or tpn color. that's where the high wind warning is in. that usually by definition is mean property damage. there's a live shot coming in from half moon bay, quite active. as you can see in the course they're getting the reins as well. temperature check in the 50's with some 40's up to the north bay winds. snapshot of where we stand now. they're actually going to build from this point coming in from the east and southeast are going to favor the south by later on this afternoon evening puts us in the mild sector and coupled with all of that, a rittle bit of breaks in the clouds and some daytime heating means possible. scattered thunder showers, too. we'll take a look at longer range forecast coming up in a bit because we have a checking off the rain even tomorrow, stephanie. all right, dave, thank you. >> officials of the south, they are warning of possible flooding today. one of the biggest areas of concern is along the guadalupe river. well, for stephanie justice continues. our team coverage for us this morning. she's live in san jose right now. tiffany, what are conditions looking at looking like at this hour? >> yeah, good morning,

stephanie. i was really hoping that the rain would lighten up just a bit, but it has not. in fact, i feel like it's coming down slightly stronger. we're also dealing with some strong gusts of wind as well here in san jose. >> we've been out here all morning long and it's really rainy and it's really coming down in this area. officials really concerned about rivers and streams at this point, especially with the santa cruz mountain and the amount of rain that we have been receiving. so they're keeping an eye on rivers like the guadalupe river right behind us. you can see how it's flowing. it's flowing quite fast. and we have noticed that the levels have increased just a bit. now, city officials are saying that san jose and surrounding areas are expected to see up to 2 inches of rain just within 24 hours. even more significant rain is expected in the santa cruz mountains which will feed into the guadalupe river. and that is why officials are watching rivers and the possibility of flooding. the national weather service is expecting the guadalupe river to reach flood stage is with water levels expected to peak.

>> around 10 o'clock this morning, i do want to mention so this is strongest a win that we have been experiencing here in san jose. making lens get all rainy and wet and this is the conditions that we're dealing with with the concerns of flooding here in san jose mayor matt mahan has issued a proclamation of local emergency. now that is allowing them to remove or evacuating homeless in the area along the waterway. as i have been mentioning all morning long, it is wet. it is rainy. it is windy. it is cool. today would be a nice day to stay inside the neighborhood all around this area. there are signs up on the roadways, cautioning people about the possibility of flooding. stephanie, back to you. all right, stephanie, thank you so much for live coverage. what you get back to your car. >> and we continue our coverage of the storm some perspective from the south bay additional perspective from the south bay.

>> joining us live now to give us an update on conditions is spokesperson is a spokesperson for santa clara valley water. we have matt keller joining us now. good morning to you. hi, good morning, stephanie. all right. was to start out here. of course, we've been talking about this all morning. santa clara county is under a flood watch through monday morning. to set up some context for our viewers. can you walk us through how valley water is involved with all of this and the counties involved with the county's response to the severe weather. >> sure. yeah. valley water open up our emergency operation center at 4 this morning. and so we work with the county. we were kids the best cities as well to inform them of what's going on in the waterways and to make sure we're communicating, you know, some of the risks that are taking in places like why they river and some of the other hot spots around santa clara county. >> okay. very good. no. san jose's mayor declared a local state of emergency because of flooding can you tell us a bit about what the situation is looking like out there now?

>> yes, so it looks like some of this storm has been delayed a bit. so that has caused to, you know, we were expecting the flood conditions to start maybe around 5 this morning, but because that the land, the storm, we're not seeing those conditions that hasn't reached into the flood stages, they're quite banks and how know where your reporter was standing out there. so the impacts of this storm could be coming later this morning early afternoon as opposed to what we were expecting early this morning into the late morning hours so that delay has obviously it's good to not be seeing any any flooding and at the flood stage is there for guadalupe right now. and of course, we'll keep an eye on that to see if it's going to so stages later this morning. >> okay, matt, thank you so much for that. now we know that there are is there that was a homeless population living out in that quite a loop, a river area. there may still be a number of individuals out there. could you speak to whether the county was able to get most of those people into shelter or are or if there are still some homeless people out there.

>> sure, of course we work with the city of san jose to make sure we're communicating the risks along the waterways. and when we have these rising creates these rising rivers, it's really important for them to go out and communicate to the unhoused population and to offer them shelter to get them out of the way of danger. so we've been working with them and i know that they have taken a sum some actions to communicate to them. they go out. they they use different types of of of ways to communicate with that unhoused population. so getting them out of the way of dangerous, the most important thing and i know the mayor reiterated that light last night at that press conference and work or supporting them with information of what's taking place in those waterways. but i know they have shelters open up. i know they're out. they're communicating its and obviously it's important to make sure that we're taking care of all the residents here in santa clara county. okay. >> and what is the public safety message for residents in santa clara county at this time? >> sure. yeah. i mean, when you get a flood warning, i mean, it's obviously that you have to take that seriously.

so we always ask as we head into storms like this, where there is a risk of flooding that people take steps to to know where their sandbag locations are so that they can have sandbags before the water starts rising at their homes. and we also asked him to sign up for emergency alerts u.s. alert. sec, which is very important for getting emergency information. i at the time that you needed if there's emergency taking place, the county can communicate with you and make sure that you know where the risks are. so those are 2 things that people take while the waters coming down. we also asked people to look up whether or not they live in a flood zone because if you live in a flood zone, you have higher risk of flooding when the storms atmospheric rivers come through. if you take those 3 steps, you can be prepared for what comes your way. >> on it. and i'm matt, how do you all of this wet weather, the rain to affect the local water supply and even the quality of the water. >> sure. well, i mean, we see storms like this, especially back-to-back. you get you get

more runoff coming off from the mountains and the hills into our waterways. and while that can be troubling, if we're having a flooding situation, it is good news for our water supply because that runoff goes into our reservoir as well. our local reservoirs and increases our local water supplies. so while we obviously are keeping an eye on the flooding situation and and want to make sure everyone is aware of the risks were seeing some benefits from this storm as well in our local reservoirs and see those reservoir levels >> and its residents happen to, you know, they see a downed power line. the power's out. what's what should they be doing next? >> sure, i mean depending on what the situation is. obviously, if it's an emergency, we asked people to call 9-1-1. so if there's an emergency situation that's causing danger for people in the area, call we have crews out in the field that are working on getting debris out of the waterways. so they'll

be looking for trees and downed trees and working with our partners of those are communicated to us to those those back channels. and we're meeting with them consistently throughout the day. so we're aware of any issues that we're seeing out there in the field. but he obviously is if something's going on, you see rising waters, you see a danger, a public safety hazard. we just ask that you call 9-1-1 report that if there's a danger to, you know, people in the >> all right. matt with santa clara valley water, thank you so much for joining us this morning. and please stay safe. thank you, stephanie. all right, taking a live look now at power. outages at the pga need map this hour. we just got an update from the utility. there are more than 29,000 customers without power right now in the bay area alone, the north and south. they are the most impacted areas they're seeing about 13,000 customers affected. we'll keep you updated on the numbers throughout the morning. take a look at the snow falling over the lake tahoe region all related to

afternoon. we're watching out for the winds and that compose issues as well. look at forecast. we come back (vo) fargo, is the new virtual assistant from wells fargo. (woman) oh, come on! come on! (vo) fargo lets you do this: (woman) fargo, turn off my debit card. i found it! i found my card! (vo) and also, this: (woman) fargo, turn on my debit card!

and it forces you into this submission of silence because you don't think that anybody is going to take what you have to say seriously. invisalign has changed my life forever.

>> all right, taking a live look now from our mount tam camera where things are really getting pretty busy out there. you could heavy. those winds are going. that rain is really coming down out there as well. dave, what are your thoughts on this? this exactly what worried about as we go into the afternoon, not so much the additional rain that's going to be added to it. but it's

going to be those winds. and that's why we have the wind advisory. high wind warning. >> that covers most of the day. meanwhile, covering most of them out of this year, 70, but at the same kind of idea in tahoe, there's there's fresh snow that we have from overnight only adding to it for today. winter storm warning basically covers 5500 feet and above 5500 feet, about 7500 feet. you're talking about maybe they'll pick up to maybe up to 3 feet of snow. you get above 7,000 feet and it really starts to get into for by the of snow. so collecting quite a bit. there might get some melting going on around the 5500 range just a little bit because this low continues to bring up mild air quotation marks because you don't see snow in our local mountains so much either so that you see kind of a telltale sign when you start seeing that happen. that means the snow levels start to come down a bit. we've got 30's on the forecast monday tuesday into wednesday with snow each day hanging around. there you see it on radar back to the bay area. there's the moderate rain showers. we did see some breaks now and we probably will as we get to the latter

morning into the early afternoon, that's not necessarily a good thing because all that sunshine means that we get any. we'll meet again energy atmosphere to the energy. and that's where sparks off those thunder showers to watch out for future cast for watching the sun today. you see the breakup happening this afternoon. not so much. the intense rain is going to be much more hit and miss going on, although it could be intense when it comes down, it will be kind of hit or miss. overnight. we lose a lot of energy for your early morning commute going on here. we have some leftover showers there. yeah, we had some daytime heating and that can turn into some thunder showers to as late as monday and tuesday to until you see the lowest, starting to change a w more to the south with more showers down south. looks like as late as around tuesday, the winds are going to today's issue. they're mostly out of the east. shift southeasterly and southerly. so we're still in the quote, mild sector temperature wise. winds get up there about gusts of 40 miles per hour. so by monday morning, the wind part of the forecast should be retired and

we shouldn't have further issues with that. but we're not out of the woods yet. and certainly the winds are what's going to hang on for today and through tonight. here's a longer range forecast. give you a general idea that low just doesn't seem knows what it wants to go dropping south. finally midweek here, guys. then thursday, another dose to make note of 2 independent of that. it's pushing it all through more mountain snow is pected. so it's for much of the week into the weekend. hey, mike, a little bit of a break here. some scattered clouds on sunday. not exactly sure what to do with this yet. we're monitoring it will put that together for you. we get a little closer and the other issue is, as we get into the early following week, everything kind of goes up and around the thinking is that should keep us in the dry sector. if that comes together, the 7 day forecast into the 50's all week long. but we've got to keep a chance of rain and a shower all in there all week long and again, watching out for thunder showers today this afternoon. and even through monday, stephanie. all right, dave, thank you. >> o beer fans rejoice. san

the kron? 4 morning news. good morning, everybody. and some of the imagery we can see around the bay right now, uptick in the city were saying a squall line kind of marched through. so. >> we're getting a pop of winds and some intense rain for right now. that's not really how it's going to be, though this afternoon. yeah, it will be some pockets of that going forward to be sure in lot of that in the south bay. but will have winds with cloudy skies going on. but winds continuing and actually intensifying a little bit over very large area. and that's what really the concern is not just a storm is here and then it's gone. 15 minutes later, half hour. it's going to those continuous winds this afternoon and even through tonight. here's live radar going on here for you again, this squall line or backyard. this is why the san francisco, it's a very stormy right now as we speak on to the east bay shoreline as well. and of course, a tiffany has been telling us down the south bay, which you can see more and the way of some cluster of some heavier rain showers. although it looks like some of the heaviest has moved out for now. there's more yet upstream not to leave out the north bay, which they also have that

flood advisory because of all these elements which will put together here for you. there are breaks in the clouds that do happen. we did see the sun come out a little bit. that's possible. even today. secondly, do much of anything except just add more energy to the atmosphere to help reduce a possible afternoon shower or thundershower. here's a live shot of the storm in us. we see in half moon bay, same kind of deal again, heavy rains in spots happening. give you a general idea what it looks like. almost half the state or more is looking for the potential for some thunder showers. that's what that green tanned caller is from the folks severe prediction center is used to severe storms forecast center, whatever. then this darker green color you can see here. that is a slight chance of some severe wedther that you see going on here. so that doesn't mean just thunder showers. that could be what falls in the definition of severe. it's light in marginal and all of that. but we don't see that very often. so worth noting and it does cover portions of the peninsula to and the santa cruz mountains and a little bit of santa

north bay to the north. 70, though, and the snows have come from last night. they're going to be all day today through early into the weekend. looks like more to be added to it. and the game plan is pretty much the same that a winter storm warning that's been posted until 5 tomorrow morning. this is for say above 5500 feet is where the snow is going to be shoaf between 5500 feet and save the 7,7500. going to be dealing with the up to 3 feet of snow saying above 7500. well, could be a lot higher than that. maybe 5 feet or so. also snow drifts with this and the winds will reach high at that level. you might get winds that are beyond hurricane strength through today and even a little bit into tomorrow to only thing, too, is that that line the freeze line around 5505,000 feet actually, it may drift a little bit down in terms of melting or go up a little bit. excuse me and start a little bit of melting. so what's coming down? the snow now may be at that level of 5500 feet may believe into a little bit of rain in there, but not too much in the way.

we get late tonight overnight, shaking off some of those winds by tomorrow morning. so tomorrow morning, it's going to be what everything that happened today tonight and little bit last night. all collected, agree to do so. watch out on area roadways. there might be some flooded areas that you should know your your route and to know where problems to develop. just little bit of caution there solo actually goes towards our north, dropping south. later, another system pushes it right through and by thursday might have another dose of some earnest rain until we find it look like a patch that we dry out going into the weekend. another dose of some cloud cover by the time we get to sunday. if this holds together improves it could be a drier picture. what is that? 7 day? look like more of the same. we've got a chance of showers just about each day. your high temperatures stay in the 50's. stephanie. >> the lunar new year is just around the corner and joining us live to introduce us to some of the traditional sounds of the celebration is a young

right here across the bay area. this gets into obviously san mateo county, but in san francisco, prop are also seeing it too. and also some white caps going on. they're in the bay. don't always see that either. sometimes with winds and fairweather, we sometimes will. but this definitely has all the hallmarks of that. quote, stormy feel that's going continue today, even though the rain will be subsiding a little sapo. we have issues there. i just checked and the delays are still holding at 2.45? so roughly 3 hours. that definitely be anybody come and go in or anything like that with a cell phone check ahead, check and see what's going on. meanwhile, tahoe a this is your somebody, but they all got snow. yeah, not not too much of mine tease there. so we know obviously, and that's going to continue today tonight, but really snows in the forecast the next couple of days. meanwhile, winter storm warning that covers all that we've talked about. the levels are 5500 feet to 7500 feet is running there with a couple of feet. you get above 7500 feet now, will we get up about 5 feet? maybe more. also watch out in those higher

elevations. hopefully nobody's going there because it's nasty travel. but just so, you higher elevations is also wind issues that could be hurricane for strength as maybe a little bit of melting down to 5, 5500 feet temporarily, but not a lot because the forecast keeps the highs only in the 30's here. so we're going to help. it's waiting for you next weekend waiting for you next weekend. there you have it. snow being added to monday, tuesday and wednesday. that will be as heavy but it will still be in there as part of the forecast. that's not bad back to the bay area. this is what it looks like from radar. what we were talking about. i don't see it any more now. but before that was a lightning strike there. so this of the squall line that's overhead here for san francisco in up there iran. this had a history of some thunderstorm activity. expect more once we get the daytime heating future cast for you, see how it breaks up quite nicely. this afternoon the winds will be with us, though. so have that stormy feel. and then from the daytime heating might have some thunder showers pop up, but more particularly tomorrow

because it will be kind of like all clear monday for a while. and then boom, there it goes with the heating. so that's something to keep in mind. the sun may be be out a little bit in the morning hours to around noon. that only gives the atmosphere more energy in which to play with this low. finally drop south tuesday wednesday, it's taken its good, sweet time here and departing the scene here by thursday our system kind of brushes on by the winds today out of the east-southeast due south. that's why the wind advisory is covering everybody a winter storm or winter. i'm sorry. a high wind warning for the higher elevations. we finally shake that off by monday morning. that's what we're really watching stephanie's because that something could knock down power lines and so forth. even though the rain is starting to wane as we go ahead for the week, there's that low. yeah, it goes north on. come on point. there we go. drop in south gets pushed through thursday. there's another spot we might get some showers afterwards. looks like little break and we might be drying

out. this may be a benign system next sunday with just some cloud cover. let's hope and more of a break, too. so we'll watch that. we get a little closer. dealing with what's on our doorstep right now. 7 day forecast. we've got to keep it somewhat unsettled 70, but temperatures hold in the 50's through the period that's kind of cool, i guess, for winter and so forth. but we're still not seeing these released low snow levels. that would be kind of nice to kind of park everything up there. if you start to see snow collecting our local mountains that's telling you, snow levels are dropping a bit. so that will i guess, nice to so there's more to be had. and again, watch those winds today is the key issue. and there's downed power lines, don't get near him. okay. we'll get no for hot or not. yeah. call 9-1-1 to stand with us. if sees anything like that. thanks so much, dave. >> and thanks to all of you for joining us here at the pump for weekend news. i'm stephanie lin and from all of us here at kron 4. thank you so much for tuning in and watching us. please stay safe and stay dry with all of this wet weather and we'll see you back here next weekend at back here next weekend at 07:00am take care. now.
