i had that inflatable snowman in the front yard. it's staked down because it's been so windy. so we're going to see still some spotty rain, especially this morning. we're seeing also some rain off the coast as we track it all with storm ranger. our mobile doppler radar. as we go into the rest of the morning. we're still seeing moisture from this area of low pressure across the region. the bulk of the atmospheric river has pushed to the south and it's kind of dried out as it moves over l.a. we're seeing the clouds rolling by there. looking back at how much rain we had just on saturday in kentfield. they had 7.5 inches of rain. santa rosa, getting about 5.25. in san jose, a little over a half inch of rain. dublin, .75 inches. over an inch of rain in oakland and in the santa cruz mountains,

about 8.5 inches of rain. that was a pretty good soaker. but look at the sierra. the seven-day snow totals we had in some resorts, okay, i'm sure they're opening today. we're going to see over 7 feet of snow on the ground in kirkwood. this all fell in a period of a week. squaw valley getting over 6 feet of snow. sugar bowl over 5 feet of snow. it's good to see that. we do have more rain in the forecast. we start out with some mild temperatures this morning. mostly some lower 50s across the bay area heading into the low 60s. it's about average. this is about where we should be this time of year. reaching 62 in san jose. 59 in san francisco. up to 65 today in santa rosa. going into the rest of the afternoon, you might still want to keep the umbrella handy. rain chances will be up to about a few spotty showers. then we'll see our next round of rain.

by this time tomorrow morning moving from south to north. so most of the rain is going to be from the golden gate bridge on south. then another more significant storm arrives on friday. once that gets here, it's going to give us a lot more rain and into the start of the weekend. the potential of getting a big soaker from thursday to friday. another two to possibly 3 inches of rain. it's going to keep it soggy from late thursday night throughout the day from off and on friday and throughout the day on saturday. it does dry up on sunday. mike, you're taking a look at the view from hayward. >> little bit, kari. >> the taillights are the same. we got a warning about winds across the bridge. today much calmer as kari is talking about. just a warning.

watch the off ramps especially. may be will puddles and slicker conditions. we showed you the san mateo bridge. there's the dumbarton bridge. we're holding steady with slowing out of the altamont. toward livermore. everything is at speed through the castro valley y. the earlier crash has completely cleared south of that robin williams tunnel. we did see a puddle or two in the shot. walnut creek, driving towards the bay bridge right now, our partners at waze time it at 20 minutes. a mild build until about 6:00. then the traffic really kicks in. by 6:00, you're doubling that time to 40, 45 minutes and then worse through the bulk of the morning commute. right now, richmond-san rafael bridge getting most of that traf there. these folks in the right cash lane, looks like that's the only one open.

look at that. i spotted it. >> have to watch out for those. mike. not sure if a wet road played a role in this deadly car crash in san jose. as you can see from the video, speed did play a factor in it. at least that's what police were reporting to us. after slamming into a tree yesterday, that happened on meridian avenue. witnesses say the crash sounded like an explosion. the driver has not been identified. 4:50. faulty maintenance by pg&e and the failure to inspect transmission lines have been cited for the deadliest fire in california history. more than 80 people died last year when the camp fire roared through butte county. state regulators issued a new report that says crews lastorme the power line that failed back in 2001. inspection would have eventually broke, then led to that fire.
