The North Bay took the Bay Area's biggest punch Monday as the rain and wind continued to pound the region.
Round two of the Bay Area's storm series is on its way out, but round three arrives on Tuesday.
Pacific Gas & Electric's temporary staging point was mostly empty as crews dealt with numerous, mostly smaller outages.. So, that's about half of the outages in all the Bay Area," said PG&E spokesperson Megan McFarland. Highway 29 between Calistoga and Lake County was finally reopened after being closed for some time due to icy road conditions and downed trees and power lines.
"So we're looking at this as a series of three storms. The fist storm was last week, the second storm started this morning and is lasting through today and then we see another storm hitting our service area starting Tuesday morning and lasting into Wednesday," said McFarland.
