san rafael bridge. napa, you have moderate rain and bonn eesha as well. to bay point and concord, light to moderate rain at times. further south, it's been light for you, hayward, oakland and fremont. you notice the whole here, the rain shadow effect, we'll begin to see rain in san jose, but look at what is offshore. this is why we're very concerned about the santa cruz mountains, the burn scar area, we're already beginning to see some mudslides and rockslides here. with rain rates now increasing to perhaps a half inch an hour, we could see even greater rain rates. and look what's here, thunderstorms. we've added those to the forecast tomorrow. this is a very strong band of storms. this will continue to push on through and as you look at this moisture plume, it's just been sitting offshore all day long. so we had a break, we had the gusty winds, but it is continuing -- it will continue to feed in moisture, the

possibility of thunderstorms and that rain, 10 to 12 hours of it, at a moderate to heavy clip. that's why we have our first 4 tomorrow for our storm impact scale. where we get the heavier rain after midnight, right on through the afternoon. so flash flood watch for the entire bay area, for debris flows. the high wind advisory and the wind warning for the upper elevations. this is for the lower elevations. with that rain, the wind is going to increase. we saw it back off throughout the day, as well as the rain. it was a nice break, we needed it, because we're going to have this for the next day or so and there's another system behind it. winds gusting from 25 to 30 miles an hour, that's where we're getting the steadier plume of moisture. through the rest of the day, tomorrow morning, the winds are gusting, the ground is saturated and the winds stay with us all throughout the evening hours. and the rain does end from north to south tomorrow, but right now, we have the mild temperatures, light rain

outside, 58 in san jose and gill roy. 55 half moon bay. the winds not too bad at sfo with mid and upper 50s. but it's very mild, raining all day long in the sierra nevada, so the snow is melting. what we have to watch out for here, the stream and creek flooding, the debris flows, hydroplaning, power outages and half a dozen rivers outside their banks on sunday. at 5:00 tomorrow morning, this is when the moisture plume heads to the north, and then it's going to sink back down to the south. we're already in the afternoon. that's why it's a 4. we'll see rain through 2:00, then it begins to break up. the low-lying areas, still holding with two to four inches of rain. upper elevations, six to eight min inches through tomorrow night. santa cruz mountains, eight to ten inches. rain rates of one inch per hour. at the loma area, and with the windy conditions, it's just

going to be a mess out there. so you probably won't even sleep through it, the downpours will continue to increase. the accuweather seven-day forecast, we get a break much of the day on monday. and then late monday the rain cranks up into tuesday. look, have you noticed what i've done? dried it out thursday, friday, and saturday. that's good news, a change to the seven-day outlook. download our app and be advised of the latest conditions, it will be changing for sure. >> and they will push alerts. all right, lisa, thank you very much. still ahead, you have to see this. it looks bad,

intercourse that's painful due to menopausal changes. it's not likely to go away on its own. so let's do something about it. premarin vaginal cream can help. it provides estrogens to help rebuild vaginal tissue and make intercourse more comfortable. premarin vaginal cream treats vaginal changes due to menopause and moderate-to-severe painful intercourse caused by these changes. don't use it if you've had unusual vaginal bleeding, breast or uterine cancer, blood clots, liver problems, stroke or heart attack, are allergic to any of its ingredients or think you're pregnant. side effects may include headache, pelvic pain, breast pain, vaginal bleeding and vaginitis. estrogens may increase your chances of getting cancer of the uterus, strokes, blood clots, or dementia so use it for the shortest time based on goals and risks.

estrogens should not be used to prevent heart disease, heart attack, stroke or dementia. ask your doctor about premarin vaginal cream.
