The National Weather Service has issued a flash flood warning for Northwestern Alameda County and West Central Contra Costa County, stating that between 0.7 and 1.2 inches of rain have already fallen, with additional rainfall of 1 to 3 inches possible, highlighting the immediate risk of flash flooding in the area.
UC Berkeley has alerted students to avoid the flooded areas at the intersection of Centennial Drive and Stadium Rim Way, which is closed until further notice, emphasizing the urgency of safety during these severe weather conditions.
As the Bay Area faces flash flooding from an atmospheric river, the National Weather Service's advice to 'turn around, don't drown' underscores the critical need for residents to avoid flooded roads and stay safe.
Preparation is key in mitigating flood damage; Berkeley residents are encouraged to participate in the adopt-a-drain program to help maintain storm drains and protect their homes before storms occur.
