Weather wonks welcomed the deluge, with some of the region's reservoirs falling far short of normal levels and the state's recent five-year drought still top of mind. Brian Mejia, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Monterey, said the heaviest rains were likely to subside by Wednesday night, but showers likely would linger through Thursday and Friday morning. San Francisco was expected to receive a third to two-thirds of an inch of rain Wednesday, while the North Bay could get 1 to 2 inches, Mejia said.           Read More                   Santa Rosa woman arrested in theft of wallets at weddings           Read More                   Walnut Creek man allegedly tried to kill 2 pedestrians with car           Read More                   Scattered showers in store for the Bay Area           Read More           Sign up for more Newsletters!           San Francisco medical examiner identifies man killed in head-on crash           Read More                   Late-night fire damages beloved West Portal hardware store           Read More                   Feds threaten to subpoena SF, others over immigrant sanctuary           Read More                   Under pressure, UC regents put vote on raising tuition on hold           Read More                   Yosemite National Park gets new superintendent in Trump shuffle           Read More                   Marijuana growers sue California over lack of limits on big farms           Read More             Support journalism.
