The slow-moving storm is continuing across the region, with steadier drizzle seen along the coast and in our hills and mountains. The wet weather is expected to continue through the evening, with overnight light rain and higher elevation drizzle becoming less widespread.

By the beginning of Friday's morning commute, lingering moisture remains mainly in the form of patchy dense fog, especially across North Bay neighborhoods. A few areas of drizzle are still possible, though streets should begin to dry as our morning rush unfolds.

This storm will produce additional rainfall up to .20 inches.


A faster moving and more potent storm starts our weekend with an early soaking.

Categorized as a 1 on the ABC7 Storm Impact Scale, the storm arrives Saturday morning.

Rainfall totals range from .30 inches to 1 inch with ponding possible on our roads during the heaviest rain.

It will be a breezy Saturday, as wind gusts accompany the wet weather that will taper after 1 p.m.
