Additional rainfall amounts of 1 to 3 inches are possible in the
warned area. Flash flooding is already occurring.

HAZARD...Life threatening flash flooding. Heavy rain producing

SOURCE...Law enforcement reported.

IMPACT...Life threatening flash flooding of creeks and streams,
urban areas, highways, streets and underpasses.

* Some locations that will experience flash flooding include...
San Francisco.

* WHAT...South winds 15 to 30 mph with gusts up to 50 mph expected,
locally higher gusts greater than 65 mph are possible above 2,500
feet.

* WHERE...Coastal and higher elevation regions of the North Bay, the
city of San Francisco, the East Bay and Santa Clara Hills, Santa
Cruz Mountains and San Mateo, the Gabilan Range, the Santa Lucia
Range, southern Monterey Bay, and coastal Big Sur.

* WHEN...Until 10 PM PST this evening.

* IMPACTS...Gusty winds will blow around unsecured objects. Tree
limbs could be blown down and a few power outages may result. The
combination of wind and moist soils will increase the risk for
downed trees particularly across the North Bay.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...A narrow frontal rain band will move through
the Bay Area and Central Coast today which will result in gusty
south winds ahead of and during its passage. Winds will start to
ease overnight after the frontal rain band has progressed out of
the region. Moderate to heavy rains over the last 48 hours have
saturated soils across the North Bay which will lead to increased
risk of downed trees and power lines as gusty winds redevelop.

The High Surf Advisory will be allowed to expire at 6 am PST.
Swell periods and wave heights will gradually decrease through the
day. Gusty winds over the waters will keep the surf zone
energetic so still use caution visiting the beach.

* WHAT...Large breaking waves between 14 to 19 ft along
southwest facing beaches and between 19 to 22 ft along well
exposed west facing beaches.

* WHERE...San Francisco, Coastal North Bay Including Point Reyes
National Seashore, San Francisco Peninsula Coast and Southern
Monterey Bay and Big Sur Coast.

* WHEN...Until 6 AM PST Friday.

* IMPACTS...Dangerous swimming and surfing conditions and
localized beach erosion. Large waves can sweep across the
beach without warning, pulling people into the sea from rocks,
jetties and beaches. Sudden immersion in cold water can result
in cold water shock even for the most experienced swimmers.
Cold water shock can result in dramatic changes in breathing,
heart rate and blood pressure, greatly increasing the risk of
drowning in rough open waters.

* WHAT...South winds 15 to 30 mph with gusts up to 50 mph expected,
locally higher gusts greater than 65 mph are possible above 2,500
feet.

* WHERE...Coastal and higher elevation regions of the North Bay, the
city of San Francisco, the East Bay and Santa Clara Hills, Santa
Cruz Mountains and San Mateo, the Gabilan Range, the Santa Lucia
Range, southern Monterey Bay, and coastal Big Sur.

* WHEN...Until 10 PM PST Friday.

* IMPACTS...Gusty winds will blow around unsecured objects. Tree
limbs could be blown down and a few power outages may result. The
combination of wind and moist soils will increase the risk for
downed trees particularly across the North Bay.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...A narrow frontal rain band is expected to
develop Thursday night into Friday which will result in gusty
south winds ahead of and during its passage. Winds will start to
ease by late Friday after the frontal rain band has progressed out
of the region. Moderate to heavy rains over the last 48 hours have
saturated soils across the North Bay which will lead to increased
risk of downed trees and power lines as gusty winds redevelop.
