so allow extra time to get to work now. heavy rain in richmond and we are also seeing a steady rain right now in san francisco. a little bit lighter there, but getting heavier for berkeley and also for oakland. seeing some pockets of some heavier rain moving through orinda and also in parts of the delta. we are still going to see the light rain making its way farther to the south, but really starting to po you are in san mateo and it's all clear right now in san jose. the rain will make it to san jose within the next 30 to 40 minutes and then continuing to make its way off towards the south and east. we will see it for a little while, give it a couple hours before it clears out, but there will be some clearing today, breaks in the rain, and thunderstorms popping up for this afternoon that could produce small hail. we will be watching out for that, but it will be a quick one and done before it clears out tonight with colder temperatures. our next round of rain moves in on wednesday into thursday and the rain just continues between thursday and friday and saturday before it finally gets out of

here during that time we are looking at the potential of getting anywhere from one to possibly three inches of rain this week and then for the sierra we are looking at anywhere from two to three to possibly four feet of snow. i mean, look at that, kingvale could have 80 inches of snow in week and we know we so desperately need it with the sierra only running about 20% of normal for snowfall. and then for the seven-day forecast it's just going to stay chilly with a break in the rain tomorrow and most of the day on wednesday. now, mike, you are still tracking that crash in hayward. i am, but i'm floored by that 80 inches of snow you are talking about. that's more inches than i am. over toward hayward, looking at the rain coming down in the east bay, north bay, peninsula all seeing that green highlighting, wet roadways and slick conditions, that is our rain story for the overall bay. this is the big slowdown through hayward out of san leandro, san

lorenzo slowing near the crash. a street is where i'm told our photographer ethan was passing by that offer ramp. he is in the slower drive. there was originally a disabled vehicle recording around a but i understand that's been cleared. now we're slowing all the way down again toward tennison on the edge of union city where that crash is reportedly in lanes. back to the maps and we are showing you the jam right there on the san mateo bridge. the hayward side not a whole lot of change for the commute otherwise other than that, but the wet roadways are still a concern down toward the south bay later on this morning. mass transit not experiencing in i delays or problems as a result. coming up next on "today in the bay," nbc bay area responds. >> one ticket, two airlines and countless questions about how a man got stuck in a gap between the two air carriers. i'm consumer investigator chris chmura, nbc bay area responds next. nbc bay area responds. to

aeromexico which is a delta partner. his ticket confirmation says so right here in the fine print. but here is the thing, when juan arrived at the airport and punched in his confirmation code into the aeromexico commuter it spit out an itinerary for a different time with someone else's name on it. aero mexico couldn't sort it out so juan had to buy a new ticket right there on the spot arriving in oakland seven hours and $685 later. juan then asked for our help figuring out what happened here. well, delta traced the breakdown to juan's confirmation code. it said aeromexico may have assigned the same confirmation number as the delta confirmation number to another passenger. delta agreed to refund juan the $260 he spent on the original ticket. juan took it. he said he appreciated our help. when one airline handles flight

operations for a different airline they call it code sharing. it's vital passengers like you and me and juan reconfirm code share flights to make sure the partner airlines are on the same page as we are. if you have a consumer complaint please call us, 888-996-tips or on line at nbcbayarea.com/responds. coming up next on "today in the bay," we have team coverage tracking a rainy morning commute for you. and that rain is starting to move into san francisco. we've seen it in the north bay for a while as we get a closer look there, some steady downpours also rolling through parts of the east bay, moving down the east bay into the south bay very soon. we're seeing light showers approaching the delta so make sure you're prepared for this rain before you get ready to head out the door and we will get you ready for the rest of the day coming up next. plus a deadly triple shooting on the peninsula. what we're learning about the
