"The start of November will appear similar to the start of the previous month, with mild, pleasant weather giving way to increasing clouds, wind and rain possibly accompanied by a thunderstorm or two by Wednesday. This time, it's not quite as surprising as the storms that pummeled the region at the start of October. November is really the first month of our rainy season, National Weather Service meteorologist Roger Gass said Monday. So this one is not too unusual."
"The storm that's descending from the Gulf of Alaska also will kick off what Gass and the weather service anticipate to be a rather wet first part of the month. The storm is taking a typical winter pattern, and like most of those, is expected to dump most of its fury on the North Bay part of the region. The fury could include flooding, as well as downed trees from the wind."
"Winds are expected to gust up to 40 or 50 mph, according to the weather service. The agency also issued a coastal flood advisory beginning at 8 a.m. Tuesday and extending to 2 p.m. Saturday for Bayshore locations extending along the San Francisco and San Pablo bays. The East Bay, South Bay and Peninsula will receive their share of wet stuff, as well."
The start of November will begin mild and pleasant before increasing clouds, wind and rain arrive by Wednesday, with a chance of a thunderstorm or two. A storm descending from the Gulf of Alaska follows a typical winter pattern and is expected to concentrate most impacts in the North Bay, including heavy rain, flooding and downed trees from strong winds. Gusts may reach 40–50 mph in exposed areas, with 35–40 mph in the East Bay and 25–30 mph around San Jose and Santa Cruz. A coastal flood advisory covers Bayshore locations along San Francisco and San Pablo bays from Tuesday morning through Saturday afternoon. Rainfall totals include up to 2.5 inches or more on Mount Tamalpais, 0.5–1 inch in Santa Cruz County, and 0.25–0.5 inch in Santa Clara, Alameda and Contra Costa counties.
