An atmospheric river storm, the Bay Area’s largest since the series of storms in early January, was expected to roll into the region in the early afternoon.
As it was in the January storms, flooding was of strong concern to agencies on Thursday. The official NWS flood watch was expected to be in effect from 1 p.m. Thursday to 10 a.m. Sunday for the entire Bay Area, plus Monterey and San Benito counties.
According to the NWS, excessive runoff was expected throughout the weekend due to the already pre-saturated soils from past rain storms. Those soils won’t be able to absorb the new rainfall at a rapid pace, causing runoff and flooding. While some urban flooding was expected in areas with poor drainage, the NWS said the largest probability of floods exists in the Santa Cruz and Santa Lucia Mountains, where rain totals could reach six to eight inches Thursday.
