West Coast Braces for Bomb Cyclone and Atmospheric River Chaos
TL;DR Summary
A 'bomb cyclone' storm is expected to bring significant rainfall to the East Bay and South Bay on Friday, following an initial wave that primarily affected the North Bay. The National Weather Service forecasts up to 1.5 inches of rain in some East Bay areas and over an inch in the South Bay, with a flood watch in effect for Marin, Sonoma, and Napa counties. The storm, fueled by a powerful system off British Columbia, is anticipated to be the largest in the region in nine months, with conditions expected to improve by Saturday before more rain arrives Sunday.
