far. there's no motive police are searching for those two gunmen. new at 11. let's take a live look from our south beach camera where you may notice something familiar has returned to the iconic bay bridge. the lights are back on but it looks like that won't last for long bridge officials. tell us some kind of glitch trigger the lights and they are trying to figure out how to turn the lights off once again just a week ago. the lights were said to be going dark for a for good because of a lack of funding for some much-needed repairs, although a fundraising effort is underway would be nice to keep them around. i know it's nice. i thought like mother nature had a glitch this morning that down for a spencer she has yeah. could you spread it out over maybe a little bit of time. well, it was a brief witch and now we've got some pretty calm conditions. yeah, but it's going to get glitchier tomorrow. okay, right now we have light scattered showers across the bay area right now very few places

reporting any measurable rain, although a lot of moisture is showing up in the atmosphere on let's move along take a look at current winds there relatively calm right now. although it's getting breezier near the coast. however, we're going to have some powerful winds developing with the storm coming in tomorrow, and there will be a high wind warning in effect, but we'll get to that just a moment first a lie a few from our exploratorium camera looking at the calm bay waters as we look toward the bay bridge 56 degrees in oakland and palo alto and san jose right now, san francisco 55 mid to upper 50s at santa clara and half moon bay. nice view from emeryville looking out to some low-clouds. just beginning to develop but we've got some patches of clear skies right now as well. so we don't have a very well organized storm at this moment current temperature readings are right in the mid-50s at santa rosa, nevada, napa fairfield conquered and livermore one more live view again. there are few from the rooftop camera here at abc 7. looking across the embarcadero and toward the bay bridge. these are the forecast headlines scattered showers will be with

us through midday tomorrow then late tomorrow much stronger storm develops. swings in that'll be our storm for tomorrow night and tuesday and then brief period of dryer weather midweek, but it will be brief. let's talk about this level two storm on the exclusive abc 7 storm impact scale. that'll be coming in tomorrow evening through tuesday night. it'll produce moderate heavy rainfall. there will be some downpours with this storm peak wind gusts 55 to 70 miles per hour and there is the likelihood of widespread flooding and debris flows. so let's take a look at the forecast animation starting at i notice the overnight hours will still be relatively calm with just some patchy showers here and there into midday tomorrow but in the late afternoon early evening hours. we'll see a massive moist. surging onshore the early evening hours tomorrow will be very stormy with periods of moderate heavy rain possibly some lightning and thunder that'll continue until about midnight tomorrow night and then through all of tuesday morning through the morning commute and into the afternoon that's normal continue to rage on we're

expecting rainfall totals ranges nerally higher in the higher elevations andwatch as ye in effect from tomorrow evening to late tuesday night for the entire bay area overnight lows today mainly in the low 50s a pretty mild overnight period highs tomorrow will be fairly mild as well reaching into the mid 60s around the bay shore line and inland and over in the sierra with the storm coming our way. there's going to be a lot more snow there. so we're just storm warnings and effect there until 5pm wednesday. here's the the accuweather seven day forecast. and as you can see level one storm takes us through tonight and tomorrow then that stronger storm comes in late tomorrow through tuesday a level two, and it's going to be a pretty ferocious storm. so we'll certainly be ready for the two days of drying out we expect to have on wednesday and thursday, but light rain may come back on friday and skip saturday and come back again next sunday. so we're looking at still some unsettled weather, but the most important thing to focus on right now is the big storm on

tuesday. okay. all right, we'll be prepared. thank you spencer. we'll be right back.
