SPENCER. THANK YOU. NOW IT FELT MORE LIKE THE MIDDLE OF WINTER THAN MAYBE A MAY DAY. TODAY AS THE STORM SOAKED THE BAY AREA, HEAVY RAIN HIT SAN JOSE, TURNING A PARKING LOT INTO A SMALL LAKE. THE WET WEATHER ENDED UP CANCELING OR POSTPONING MANY OUTDOOR EVENTS. AS ABC7 NEWS REPORTER CORNELL BERNARD FOUND SOME PEOPLE WHO WEREN'T ABOUT TO LET THE RAIN WASH OUT THEIR PLANS STILL MADE A WEEKEND OF IT . >> A SUPER RAINY KICKOFF TO AAPI HERITAGE MONTH, THE ANNUAL FIVE K RUN ACROSS SAN FRANCISCO FROM JAPAN TOWN TO CHINATOWN WAS WET, BUT IT DIDN'T STOP. MARY SEEN AND HER FAMILY. >> SO I SAID, NOTHING CAN STOP US. THIS IS ALL DETERMINATION. THIS IS HOW I PROVE MY DAUGHTER TO SO IT IS A GOOD LEARNING FOR HER. SO SHE MADE IT. LET'S GO. >> WE GOT 600 PEOPLE BRAVED THE ELEMENTS COMING OUT TO SHOW THEIR SOLIDARITY. >> IT HAS BEEN LIKE POURING DOWN . THIS WAS NOT JUST A LITTLE BIT RAIN, RIGHT? IT WAS POURING, POURING, POURING DOWN. BUT LOOK, LOOK AROUND YOU. EVERYONE IS SHOWING UP. PERFORMANCES ARE SHOWING UP. PARTICIPANTS ARE SHOWING UP. ALL THE VOLUNTEERS ARE SHOWING UP. I MEAN THAT THAT TELLS A LOT. >> BUT THE SPRING STORM WAS TOO MUCH FOR OTHER EVENTS ACROSS THE BAY AREA. THE RICHMOND, SAN PABLO, CINCO DE MAYO, PEACE AND UNITY PARADE WAS CANCELED SATURDAY.
