Along with high surf continuing to batter Bay Area coastlines, residents can expect gusty winds, rain and possible coastal flooding into the weekend, forecasters said.
On Friday, the rain will arrive in time for the evening commute, including a chance of thunderstorms, according to the National Weather Service.
“Expect a challenging Friday evening/night if out,” a forecast briefing on Thursday stated. “Those with the option to leave work early or work from home, may want to consider this option.”
Another round of high surf will impact Bay Area coastlines on Saturday, with more coastal flooding possible, forecasters said.
A coastal flood warning was downgraded to an advisory on Thursday afternoon and will remain in effect through 2 p.m. Friday due to a combination of high surf and potential storm surge, according to the weather service.
Thunderstorms are possible in the region Friday evening into Saturday morning, forecasters said.
High winds expected on Friday have prompted the weather service to issue a wind advisory for parts of the Bay Area.
South winds of 15 to 30 mph, with gusts up to 40 mph are possible from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Friday, forecasters said.
Tree limbs could be blown down and a few power outages may result, the weather service said.
Winds will lessen Friday night and the rain is expected to taper off on Saturday.

Looks like we are getting back to the normal weather pattern for Northern California.
If we do it will short circuit the minds of the “Climate Change” proponents!
As of 11AM, the barometer was 30.00.
It needs to fall quickly for this to be a decent rainstorm.
Apparently there has been a “flip” in El Nino which is going to cause some charges.

I recall that El Nino of 2009-2010. I traveled down to Phoenix to pickup my great niece so she could spend Christmas were her relatives in the Bay Area. I was surprised at the cooler temps in Phoenix and of snow boarding on the Grapevine.
Wrong again.
