Major Rain and Wind Are Incoming on Tuesday Night, Storm Continuing Through Xmas
"While we will be seeing rain throughout the day Monday and Tuesday in San Francisco, this is actually the lull before the real storm arrives later on Tuesday. The promised Pineapple Express set of storms have in fact taken shape and will be taking aim at the Bay Area in earnest by late Tuesday. That will mean both more intense rain as well as gusting winds, which will extend overnight into Christmas Eve."
"According to the weather service, over eight inches of rain has already fallen in parts of northwest Sonoma County, and 10.85 inches had fallen on Mount Tam as of this morning. But as Behringer puts it, today, Monday, is "kind of a break" before the real business begins Tuesday. The North Bay and the Peninsula are expected to see another two to three inches of rain Tuesday and Wednesday, and some coastal areas could see destructive winds gusting as high as 70 miles per hour."
