Cold temperatures will linger around the Bay Area through Thursday before two storm systems hit the region Thursday and Saturday.
A frost advisory will also be in effect for parts of the East Bay on Wednesday.
The first rainstorm is forecast to arrive Thursday after 4 p.m. and continue through Friday, followed by a brief lull before the second storm arrives late Saturday.
There will be less impacts from the wet weather than a previous series of storms that came through the region in late December and earlier this month, according to Alexis Clouser, a National Weather Service meteorologist.
“Soils are still quite wet but have had a two-week drying period,” Clouser said.
“We’re not concerned with any flooding or anything like that. The totals for these next storms are quite low compared to what we saw in early January.”
Most areas have less than an inch of rain forecast for the first storm, but some mountain areas could see as high as 1.5 inches.
Clouser said details for the storm arriving Saturday are still developing.

Californians are sooo soft and emotional… sooo coddled by their government.

Bring it on!!!!!
More snow and water is much needed!!!
Here we go again with the storm panic.
Middle Tennessee has been promised an ice storm tonight. I’m too old to actually do anything about, so I’ll wait inside as long as I need to wait it out.
Well…. I’d offer to play poker with you online but those ice storms almost always take out the power lines and it would happen right when I have a great hand…. so find a good book….good luck! Stay warm.
