the bay area's local news station. you're watching kron. 4 news at known now 9 another storm system making its way into the bay area tonight, bringing. >> more rain and strong winds. the storms we've seen this past week. plus causing flooding now and places all around the state and with another storm set to hit tonight, the risk of flooding continues to be a major concert. and the hits just keep on coming. thanks for joining us. i'm vicki liviakis. i'm grant lotus. here is chief meteorologist lawrence karnow. i don't know why it's just so much so soon into in the last couple years, we couldn't buy a raindrop. i mean, we said here i was looking at all these long-range and we just could not get the rain to come. now, i can't find an end and they just keep coming too close to one another. and so that's why the flooding concerns. it's going to be an heading forward still so i think tonight storm

going to be a little bit different. we kind of saw a long duration storm that came through starting last night and continued all the way through the night and into about the middle of the day today, some places around the bay area today over 4 and a half inches of rain across on the mountaintops about that. but we have dry things out there around the bay area right now, but not for long as another storm system on the way. so very heavy rain, damaging winds, real possibility tonight after midnight tonight. and again, this comes on top of all the rain, all the storms that we've seen as we are rounding out the old year into the new year and they just come one after another. so everything is completely saturated outside and that would give rise to these trees coming down a lot more easily strong. gusty winds are in the forecast tonight as the storms come by. likely going to be thunderstorms embedded in this system as it comes through. that means some heavy rainfall, some very gusty gusty winds. it will be a little bit more isolated in spots maybe upwards of one, maybe 2 inches of rain. so not as heavy as the previous

storms. it's going to be fast moving, but we're likely going to see some flash flooding, some more flooding around the bay area. mudslides and yes, definitely some more trees coming down. here's what we've had in the past. 24 hours from that others, part of the storm over 2 inches of rain in santa rosa over 2 inches in samara fell almost 2 inches. an apple, oakland, almost 2 inches of rain. san francisco, almost an inch and a half. and ben lowman, you get to the santa cruz mountains almost 4 and a half inches of rain and that heart of the storm system moving a little further south in the big sur area. some places there as much as 12 inches of rain in the past. 24 hours. all right. here's where we sit today now. so we've seen impressive totals now 172% enrollment. san francisco. you've got san jose 135% of normal. oakland now 219% of normal. and santa rosa 133% of normal. and of course, a snow levels running in some spots, 200% of normal for the year so far. so all right. let's time out your storm system for you tonight. as we

take an tonight midnight hour comes after that. we get slam right around 2 o'clock in the morning. look at that fierce line storms just rolling through the bay area early tomorrow morning. then tapering off to more scattered showers and thunderstorms. strong gusty winds to go along with that. and this very cold, unstable air. going to move on the backside of that system. i think it's unlikely to crank out some thunderstorms to the middle of the day in early afternoon and then things begin to quiet down. but we're going to be talking about another inch plus the mountaintops, then there's another storm lining up behind that. guess what? a whole lot more rain to come and a lot more rain this coming weekend to. we'll have more on that coming up few minutes. thank you, lawrence. president biden approved the emergency declaration for california due to storm damage. it allows federal agencies like fema to coordinate disaster relief efforts with state and local agencies. governor newsom says at least 12 people have died in our state is result of these storms and >> last 10 days, the office of emergency services says as of last night, more than 425,000

today you go through the fundamentals like everything's important. >> the giants are losing their starting first baseman and one of the fan favorite for the last decade or so. the toronto blue jays have signed brandon belt to a one-year 9.3 million dollar contract. all the things come to an end belt part of 2 championships with the giants and a captain had. like i said, a fan favorite. good dude. he is going north of the border. set out to sofi stadium. georgia, take on tcu, college football, national championship. stetson. bennett. he gives in the end zone early. scott since 25 years old. they lead 7. later on. 45 7 bennett connects with ladd mcconkey. that's the name of the year right there. good old fashion. but within 65 to 7. they've won back-to-back

titles. first time in the college football playoff era. so they're pretty good. my producer right now saying go dogs in my ear. good for you and all your championship. all right. that's a look at sports. back to you guys. all right, jason, you know, well, reese's storms are causing havoc in many areas of the state. there is a silver lining. >> the state's snowpack is nearly 200% above normal. for this time of year. the state's department of water resources says this is really the best start to our snow pack in over a decade. experts aren't ready to celebrate just yet, though, as major reservoirs are still below average last year, december had above average snowfall. only day yield to a very dry january through march. so we check in on the forecast now and we look. >> good up in the high country where maybe a little bit of a break, but more snow is coming been, you know, who calls

lawrence. you know that that rain. yeah. kind of snow mixture, which is a good for skiing. but yeah, kind of a good. that's what that's what they've been doing. yeah. you know, the moisture content is higher and that's the that's the bright side of things. right? but yeah, maybe not great for the skiers but this storm system that's coming in. i don't think want to mess with you see these winds. >> howling around the mountain tops there may be gusting over 100 miles an hour up above. but don't worry, there's plenty of snow to ski on. and there's plenty more to come. so you're not going to be missing out the snow out there on the roads tonight. so far the roads are open and clear 80 50 so far looking good up there. but i think not going to be the case late tonight early tomorrow morning as the storm comes racing across the bay area and in the high country. so a couple snow flurries up there across the high country. just kind of remnants of the system that moved through early on today. but winter storm warnings are in effect until 4 o'clock in the afternoon on wednesday. heavy snowfall across some of the higher peaks of the sierra nevada, maybe upwards of

inches as you make your way above 7,000 feet. and a lot of snow all the way down lake level, too. so, yeah, the thing you got to watch out for, if you like to ski again, the back country get off some of those groom slopes in the ski areas. you can trigger an avalanche in these kind of conditions pretty easily. so a warning has been issued by the national weather service starting at 07:00am on monday and continuing all the way to wednesday for an avalanche is so a heavy snow winds overnight tonight and gusty conditions. a stormy weather until at least wednesday. and then, but we could see upwards think the next couple days kind of tough getting up there. but there may be a window as we head into thursday as things begin to clear out a little bit. but overnight tonight, this next storm system comes racing in heavy snowfall going to falling across the sierra nevada. the go a little bit of a break. and then another

system comes moving in. and there you go. the sinaloa probably going to go up a bit with that next storm system. but still, they just keep coming one right after another right after another. and there's more expected over the weekend, too outside tonight. so far it is quiet out there so far. but that's not going to last. this guy that's developing off the coastline. that is an intense a little storm system out there right now. and it's going to pack a punch. start to track a couple thunderstorms around that system. so some unstable air beginning to move in a little bit closer and going to be moving in overnight tonight, bring some heavy rainfall when you know one another round of some gusty winds. don't need to see that. but likely going to see some trees coming down again in this one overnight. so it's going to be a shorter term storm. but when it's here, you're going to feel it. you're going to feel the duration of the storm system. maybe an hour, maybe 2 hours or so. and that will be it. but i mean, it is going to pack a punch when it comes on shore. late tonight early tomorrow morning. okay. but well, that leave a little bit of time for the ground to be able to soak some of this water. unfortunately, not much. we've got another one

coming in on wednesday. then on thursday. i think part of friday, maybe we catch a break before another storm rolls in. the couple storms over couple were couple dozen that yeah. yeah. all right, lawrence, thank you. about this. always get the live chat on. a new addition at the oakland zoo will here. >> story about this little baby mountain lion. after the baby mountain lion. after the break.
