Wet roads in the Bay Area, heavy snow in the Sierra Nevada, with more on tap this weekend
Around the Bay Area, the storm marked the first significant rain since Nov. 8. By mid-afternoon after most of the storm had moved through, San Francisco had received .84 inches of rain; while downtown Oakland had 1.15, Richmond 1.08 and Concord .53. Across the bay, Redwood City received .74 inches, and Mineta San Jose International Airport had .59.
“It’s definitely providing some short-term relief,” said Jeff Lorber, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service regional office in Monterey. “We had a three-week period with no rain. This should help allay any fire concerns over the next few weeks or so. It’s not drought-busting rainfall but it is beneficial. We are hopeful we’ll get more this month.”
By Monday, much of Northern California should be close to or above historical rainfall averages for early December. But dry weather is forecast next week. To break the state’s drought, many more storms will be needed, experts said.
