Sunny skies on Saturday morning gave Bay Space residents a break from the 2 days of heavy rains that pounded the area, breaking day by day rainfall data in cities from Santa Rosa to San Jose.
“We still are going to have rain these next few days, but it’s nothing like what we went through,” stated meteorologist Dylan Flynn, with the Nationwide Climate Service’s Monterey workplace.
Downtown Santa Rosa broke a century-plus file for having probably the most quantity of rain inside a 72-hour interval — 12,7 inches. The earlier file was 9.72 inches.
“We broke it by a healthy margin,” Flynn stated. “We’ve never seen that much of rain over three days since we started recording.”
Downtown San Francisco registered 2.97 inches of rain Friday, a complete that broke the single-day file of 1.12 inches set greater than 150 years in the past.
Within the South Bay, San Jose recorded 0.72 inches of rain, breaking a day by day file set in 1964 by 0.10 inches.
