the ar. little milder at 47. so o our storm impact scale today and tomorrow's storm ranks a 1, it will be light. but we will see some rain during the morning hours, possibly some downpours at times. then it will taper off into showers this afternoon and this evening. that will continue through tomorrow. less than an inch of rain for most everyone. in fact the rainfall varies quite a bit. breezy at times, especially along the coast. here's a forecast animation. so 7:00 this morning you'll still see some of the heavier showers mainly along the north bay coast. even some dry spots as well. then by about 10:00 we'll start to see rain move through along 101, santa rosa north bay, and then hitting the peninsula coast. then by lunchtime, we'll see some more rain starting to sweep through san francisco and parts of the east bay. it quickly turns into scattered showers by the afternoon and
6:19 am
then isolated showers this evening. now, as this area of low pressure slides south, we'll still see some rain overnight through tomorrow, but you notice it quickly moves out by tomorrow evening. monday will finally be a break for all of us. so rainfall potential, again, generally less than an inch. more rain in parts of the north bay where we're seeing rain right now. so closer to an inch in novato, about three-quarters in ukiah and santa rosa. around half an inch to a quarter inch around the k t fremont, just about 0.1 of an inch and parts of the inland interior east bay also less rain there. highs today will be in the low to mid-50s. san francisco 54, oakland 56, san jose 56 degrees. overnight lows will be chilly once again, especially through parts of the north bay and some valleys where it will be in the 30s. we'll see mid-40s around the bay and only 41 in san jose. here's the accuweather seven-day forecast. so rain this morning, showers by
