Timing out rain, wind and snow. Heavy at times Thursday and Friday across Northern California

that door. You saw that moon beaming down on the lake there in Tahoe. It's a quiet calm morning start. You can expect we will just see those clouds around through the morning. And I think that once we get beyond about the nine o'clock hours when we could start to see a couple of raindrops move into the valley and the wind is also going to stay fairly calm through much of the mid morning. But beyond that in the afternoon, that's when things do start to ramp up with those southeast early winds 10 to 25 miles an hour. It's gonna be raining and it's gonna be a steady rainfall that will continue and persist as we head through the overnight tonight and into tomorrow.

So future cast shows you exactly more on the timing of this. So this is nine o'clock this morning. We'll have some rain around Lakeport down in through Santa Rosa, and it's just beginning to rain in the Bay Area spots at that point. Still again, we're waiting on that rainfall till about lunchtime in the greater Sacramento area. And then look at this one o'clock in the afternoon, the rain is coming down and it's nice, steady solid rainfall all across our viewing area. Now the snowfall, it's gonna start out around 4000 feet, but it could be going higher than that as we go into the afternoon as that warm air starts to effect in and on shore. This is six o'clock in the evening.

If that's your drive home from work or if you have a friend or a loved one that is driving around at that time, that rains really coming down at a good moderate to heavy intensity, and that's going to persist through the overnight tonight where those snow levels are gonna again be mainly above six to 7000 feet on into the evening ahead. Here's six o'clock tomorrow morning. We are starting to see some of the rain ease up a little bit around Sacramento, but it's still really coming down in areas like Stockton, Modesto and into the foothills. Once the really the rain starts in the foothills, it's basically not gonna let up as we go through today and even into the day time tomorrow. Now by Friday, here's the afternoon. Cut up couple of showers, maybe a thunderstorm possible, but the intensity of the rainfall is really gonna start to subside as we go through a latter portion of Friday and into the evening. Terms of wind is going to get gusty out there as well.

This is three o'clock. Those winds start to gust up the 30 here in Stockton closer to 35 in the foothills. So places like Amador County, Calaveras County could expect winds gusting 40 to closer to 50 miles an hour. The winds are only going to increase in intensity as we go closer to eight, nine o'clock tonight and from nine p.m. till about midnight. That's when I expect some of our strongest winds to really unfold across the valley and into the foothills.

Now rainfall projections will be in the range here of Sacramento about an inch and a half to two inches between Thursday and into Friday, two inches around Stockton, three to six inches possible there in through Placerville. So yes, that rain on top of the snow that we've had at the lower elevations during the week could be problematic, especially causing some rapid rises on the river streams and Greeks. We're still looking at a windy start to your Friday with the rain and the wind eventually easing up for the area throughout the afternoon Friday. Now the weekend, guys, again, you're seeing a lot of those rain icon.
