A Happy Friday to you!
Friday's storm will begin by the morning commute about 8:00AM from San Francisco north. It will move south through the morning and with it, we'll have some gusty winds at times. The sustained winds will range from 20-40mph with gusts to 50mph possible. Most of the gusty winds will happen during the mid-morning hours.
Expect up to 3 inches of rain in the North Bay Hills, and .25 to 2 inches in the lower areas around the rest of the Bay Area.
In the Sierra we'll get more snow starting at about 4500 feet. Expect 3 to 8 inches at lake level and 8 to 16 inches above 7000 feet. It will also be very windy with gusts up to 70mph Friday afternoon.
We'll get a break by late Friday night, with more light showers in the North Bay Sunday morning.
I know it will be rainy in San Francisco Friday, but if you are around, I'll help the San Francisco SPCA and Macy's Union Square unveil the Holiday windows with pets from the SFSPCA. It's a great fundraiser for the SFSPCA! For more information please visit http://www.sfspca.org/support/events/macys-holiday-windows
And Saturday we will have the annual Holiday Food Drive at all Bay Area CVS/pharmacy locations.
Please drop by anytime between 8:00AM and 5:30PM.
Have a great day and wonderful weekend!
