New Year. Hi everybody. Good afternoon to you. Let's get back to that high surf warning that is in effect until 3 a.m. tomorrow. But again, mind you, those waves just don't fall off. They just don't go flat. They will continue to contribute to some minor flooding along our coastline and our bay shore. These waves still 28 to 33ft. They peaked around one and 2:00 this afternoon and they will continue to roll onshore as well. And that's why we have that coastal flood advisory. It's now extended ended until 2:00 tomorrow afternoon. This is encompassing our San Francisco Bay, our shoreline and well into southern ports of Monterey Bay and even Carmel. Now now, meanwhile, in addition to all that, with the incoming system that Heather was alluding to, we do have a southerly wind and this will peak up to about 40mph as far as the gusts are concerned, and perhaps even 50 in the highest elevations.

So when the waves lap onshore tomorrow, they're going to really affect more of the westerly and southwesterly facing beaches as opposed to today at northwest. Here we go with the rain affecting everybody. Light rain tonight overnight. And then the rain becomes a little bit more earnest during the morning hours . And then this is very light precipitation. But where you see the shade of green, that's moderate rainfall. That's the frontal boundary from five to about 10:00 in the evening hours really pounding the Bay area with blustery conditions. Snow in the High Sierra as well. And that snow is going to be anywhere from about a dusting to two inches at lake level, up to six inches above 7500ft.
