Rain began to arrive overnight across the Bay Area as storm system off the coast brought the potential for a record amount of precipitation over the next couple of days.
According to the National Weather Service's Bay Area office, rain amounts overnight ranged from a few hundredths across Marin and southern Napa Valley to 0.25 on average Sonoma valleys. The area seeing the highest amounts rain by early Sunday was northwest Sonoma, with parts of the region getting from 0.50-0.68 of an inch. Any significant rainfall will likely threaten records for the month.
The force of the water moved some homes off their foundations, and one house in Nome floated down a river until it got caught at a bridge. "Our goal is to get the assessments done as soon as possible," he said."We're going to move as quickly as we can to provide relief, provide recovery, provide the essentials that people need."
