The rainy season has officially started in the Bay Area as a storm is expected to bring nearly a\u00a0month\u2019s worth of rain<\/a> to San Francisco in less than 24 hours, according to the National Weather Service.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dalton Behringer, a meteorologist for the Bay Area weather service office, said most of the forecast precipitation will fall late Monday morning through the evening. In the North Bay, about a half inch of rain is expected during this storm and will arrive mostly between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday, according to Behringer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

San Francisco is expected to get 0.82 inch of rain, and Behringer said 90% of that precipitation will fall Monday afternoon between 1 and 5 p.m., just in time for the evening commute. Oakland is expected to get around 0.8 inch of rain<\/a> on Monday, with the heaviest rain falling between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m., although showers are expected overnight into Tuesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Further into the East Bay, 0.88 inch is expected near Walnut Creek<\/a> through Monday evening, with the heaviest totals falling before 5 p.m.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As the rain bands move south, rainfall totals are expected to increase up to 1.5 inches of rain in the Santa Cruz Mountains, with the heaviest showers<\/a> expected before 11 p.m. Monday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After the strongest rain passes, there will still be a chance of showers in the Bay Area throughout Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cOvernight and tomorrow morning is going to be more like scattered or isolated showers,\u201d Behringer said, with most regions seeing less than a tenth of an inch of additional rain. \u201cA lucky few will get another significant, maybe a quarter inch or so.\u201d<\/p>\n

Behringer said since October is a relatively dry time of year, even substantial rainfall likely won\u2019t lead to major flooding. On average, San Francisco gets about 0.94 inch of rain in October, so this storm will deliver nearly the entire month\u2019s worth of precipitation in one go.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s kind of easy to do it because it\u2019s October,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s notable, but not super crazy.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The rainy season has officially started in the Bay Area as a storm is expected to bring nearly…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2403,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[101,103,102,104,106,105,1692,1691],"class_list":{"0":"post-2402","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-san-francisco","8":"tag-san-francisco","9":"tag-san-francisco-headlines","10":"tag-san-francisco-news","11":"tag-sf","12":"tag-sf-headlines","13":"tag-sf-news","14":"tag-sfgnews","15":"tag-sfgweather"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2402","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2402"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2402\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2403"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2402"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2402"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2402"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
