SAN FRANCISCO --
Ben Lomond got 2.14 inches, San Rafael 1.88 inchs, Fremont 1.29 inches and San Francisco nearly an inch.Additional impacts from Tuesday's stormy weather included downed trees and landslides along Highway 9 in the Santa Cruz Mountains, causing multiple closures and other stretches of roadway reduced to one lane open.
