we're looking at mostly wet roadways on the major roads.monika mentioned, river road which is the the main thoroughfare we took to get to our current location is looking pretty good. on the side street, some of the roads have a speed limit of 40 miles per hour but there's no way you're going 40 on this. we have plenty of ice still on the roadways. just a thin coating there. and we're taking it very slow going about 25 miles per hour currently to make sure we don't have any skids or any slides. another thing we've seen plenty of is down tree branches. no actually trees on the the roadways as we've seen but plenty of tree branches covering the entire lane so that we have to slowly move into the other opposite lane of direction to make sure that we get around that and i just want to make sure that everyone knows as you're heading out the door, you cannot go even the speed limit as you're heading out this morning because it's not only the icy conditions that you have to watch out for but there's also those downed tree branches and right now it

and the other thing we want to highlight is the fact not only is it wet out there. temperatures are dropping. we have a few areas of low snow. that wind is going to continue to pick up tonight. right now it's at 9 miles per hour. we could see gusts as high as 25 miles per hour into early tomorrow morning. let's move things on. to the thing you're probably wanting to know the most. when does the rain move out of the bay area? and when is our best chance of some snow? see right now the model is lining up perfectly. we have rain coverage across the bay area at this hour. as we head throughout tonight, we're going to keep scattered areas of rainfall across the bay. then as we head throughout tomorrow morning, look out for these areas of pink that are going to pop up in the south bay. throughout san jose, down to about morgan hill. that's a rain/snow mix on the valley floor, computers picking up on it. the best chance will be into the santa clara valley. we head throughout 8:00, 9:00, 10:00 in the morning, that clears out and we'll have sunny skies for the rest of your s

each year, the wet season brings a thick snow layer, followed by a darker layer created by dry-seasonust carried by winds up the mountain. these alternating wet and dry layers can then be linked to historic atmospheric events, such as volcanic eruptions, giving a precise annual record. thompson: and so that gives you your calendar. you can see it on the margin of the ice cap, and you can see it in the ice cores when you drill, and you can see it in the analysis when it's done in the lab. and if you want to talk about rates of change, you need that annual calendar. and we now know, probably 25 years later, that that ice cap contains the highest resolution, the longest annual record, that we will ever find in the tropics. narrator: the peruvian expeditions were the beginning of an ambitious worldwide drilling program. over the next 30 years, lonnie and his team continued to make technical improvements to better retrieve high-resolution ice cores from extreme locations. to create a global archive of past climate, lonnie has made more than 50 expeditions to africa, antarctica, bolivia, ch

accomplished that, there was this great recognition that we had a series of issues associated with wet weather conditions. storm events where, all of a sudden, you're dealing with a lot of water. narrator: large amounts of rainwater can cause flooding. engineers developed two approaches to stormwater infrastructure to transport water away from the urban environment. one approach was to carry waste and stormwater through the same pipe. this combined system was less expensive than building two individual pipe networks. and stormwater was seen as a way to flush out the sewers. through the 19th century, the combined system was considered state-of-the-art throughout the world, and is still in use in many cities today. but cities constructed these systems before treatment was the standard. and even today's largest treatment plant doesn't have the capacity to treat the sudden volumes of water rushing through a combined system during rain. the plant is overloaded, and the excess rainwater, mixed with untreated raw sewage, is diverted straight into local waterways, creating a combined sewer ove
