National Weather Service calls the expected heavy rains a “direct threat to life and property.”
Aside from light showers early in the morning, Monday’s forecast was relatively tame in terms of rainfall and wind throughout the Bay Area. While wind gusts could ramp up to 40 miles per hour or greater around 10 p.m., the bulk of the rain was expected after 1 a.m. Tuesday morning.
In all, San Jose, Livermore and Concord could expect to see between one-half and one inch of rain from Monday evening through Wednesday morning. Expectations were higher in San Francisco, where it could receive as much at one and a half inches of rainfall, and Santa Cruz could expect between two and three.
