"This looks to be pretty heavy, NWS meteorologist Dial Hoang said of the looming storm. It's a big system. Looking at the total rain forecast, we anticipate that there will be at least an inch across the Bay Area and there could be up to 2-3 inches in the mountains and higher elevations. . . . This is probably going to be a pretty notable early season storm."
"The storm is following a typical winter path as it descends from the Gulf of Alaska, meaning the North Bay likely will be the first part of the region to get the rain. But it will spread quickly, the weather service said, and areas of the region may be susceptible to flash flooding. Also a slight possibility is thunder and lightning."
A mild, pleasant weekend with temperatures in the high 60s to low 70s will precede a significant Pacific storm expected to reach the Bay Area early next week. The system is forecast to deliver at least an inch of rain across the Bay Area and up to 2–3 inches in mountains and higher elevations. The storm follows a Gulf of Alaska track, likely bringing rain first to the North Bay before spreading regionwide. The system could produce flash flooding, a slight chance of thunder and lightning, and high-elevation snow around Lake Tahoe.
