Light rain forecast over the weekend, with more storms possible next week
An atmospheric river storm brought high winds, steady rain and some flooding to roads and low-lying neighborhoods Friday, but the Bay Area largely avoided the kind of severe damage that the region saw during the last wave of heavy storms in January.
Rain totals were generally at, or slightly below the amounts forecasted by the National Weather Service. Forecasters said that more snow is expected in the Sierra in large amounts this weekend, with another 3 or 4 feet possible at Donner Summit and 6 feet or more expected at Tioga Pass in Yosemite National Park, which has been closed all week.
At Felton Grove, the river crested Friday morning at 20 feet — nearly 4 feet above its flood level, but 3 feet less than had been predicted. The area flooded badly in January. In Watsonville, flood waters on Friday morning poured through several neighborhoods close to Corralitos Creek, which spills into the Pajaro River.
The affected counties were Amador, Butte, El Dorado, Fresno, Humboldt, Imperial, Inyo, Kern, Lake, Los Angeles, Madera, Mariposa, Mendocino, Merced, Mono, Monterey, Napa, Nevada, Placer, Plumas, Sacramento, San Bernardino, San Francisco, San Mateo, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, Sierra, Sonoma, Stanislaus, Tulare, Tuolumne and Yuba.
