a lot. the pickup a number and get more intense in the overnight and these are the systems that will help lower the snow levels. if you get a little bit of convection in the storms they are pulling colder air down and that can lower the snow level. some of these will be able to drop the snow. that is 7 am tomorrow. that is a organized line, it has mixed in and goes through the southern edge of the diablo range. it is a touchy forecast but with the summit on 17 at 1800 feet, that is high enough. it will not be anything like it was two weeks ago but it can be impactful on the morning drive. other than that we still see scattered showers going into wednesday. this will also pick up again tuesday night. kind of like the grand finale on tuesday night, another

organized line that comes through, it will give us more low elevation snow, maybe down to 2000 feet and a occasional thunderstorm but by wednesday we are done. that is good, we want a break on thursday to get ready for what is potentially coming on friday. that is what the winter weather advisory looks like. we looked at this on top of the newscast, the one area to be concerned about is down here through the santa cruz mountains. thursday is a day off and then the pattern ships. the streamline zone is showing you how the atmosphere has been coming into california straight from the north. the storms have been called, they have not been big rainmakers. over the next four days the storm tracker over the pacific will reorganize and by the time we get to friday now we

see the systems coming from a different direction. the streamlines are coming back at us from the southwest. if we look at what they are pulling up, by friday, that is a concentrated plume of high amounts of water vapor to work with. these are the storms that give big rainfall amounts. now it is weak to moderate strength. it could be more impactful than that considering how much snow is in the sierra now. this is the other high-powered forecast model that goes long- range, it is a subtle difference but it shows the direction of the plume going further south. if we look at the forecast to friday, you see a pattern where there is a deep shade of green showing you high rainfall amounts, higher than

what we have seen over the last weekend half. we could see as much as a inch and a half of rain friday and saturday. the snow levels will be fairly high with that one. we could see rain on snow up to 5000 feet. it is early but it is a important detail in the forecast to start talking about. the confidence is growing through here. this will be a impactful system. it does not look like a significant flooding concern in the bay but should you get a widespread heavy rain event in the sierra from 2000-4000 feet, that does open up a degree of vulnerability to flooding because now you are getting a lot of rain and it is enough to melt a lot of snow at that elevation. it should not be a risk to hire elevation snow packs but for the lower ones it could. it could be enough rain for minor localized street

flooding. it is early. that is why we do seven-day forecasts and first alert weather. we are giving you a heads up. if the forecast remains what it is now, we will likely have to for friday and saturday and we start give you detailed information. back over to you. coming up, it is two years away but candidates are already hitting the campaign trail for 2024. who is in and who has not declared yet? a second train has gone off the tracks in ohio, what is next for the company? the warriors sprinkled with a little bit of curry. these dreams even come with big-league pedigree. a local has hit the

jackpot.
