Bay Area weather: Rain, gusty winds and snow on local peaks expected for much of this week
Briefly

Despite recent warm weather, the Bay Area is bracing for a series of storms that will bring steady rain and snow, with meteorologists predicting significant rainfall this week. The first storm arrives late Tuesday into Wednesday morning, with more expected over the weekend. Current forecasts project 1 to 2 inches of rain across most Bay Area cities, with heavier totals expected in the North Bay Hills and Sierra Nevada, signaling a return to normal seasonal rainfall levels.
"We've had a zig-zag line all the way through this winter - a wet period in November, then an extended dry period, then back up. We'll probably end up with pretty much normal rainfall for the season."
"The Wednesday rain event in the Bay Area is a weak atmospheric river, ... forecast to be a 1 on a scale of 1 to 5."
