In San Rafael, a giant eucalyptus tree toppled at the intersection of Meyer Road and Southern Heights.

To the north, in Petaluma, three cars collided in a fender bender that backed up Highway 101 and caused one minor injury. The Highway Patrol cited slippery conditions.





Though it wasn't all bad-- downtown Petaluma supplied a beautiful site as the rain gently fell.





Let's hope the waters remain untroubled after the rains.
