Rain, Thunder Possible Tuesday In Livermore: What To Know

LIVERMORE, CA — Rain is likely to continue in Livermore Tuesday as gusty winds descend on the Bay Area.

The National Weather Service said before dawn Monday that it anticipated 1 to 2 inches of rain in the East Bay hills as a "generally weak atmospheric river" heads into the region. An atmospheric river is a long, narrow channel of water vapor akin to a river in the sky.

Weather officials warned that "a change in the weather pattern is beginning to unfold as patchy but thickening high clouds are now streaming in from the west."

Showers and thunder were again possible Tuesday morning, and rain was expected to continue into the afternoon and possibly night.

A wind advisory was in effect for most of the Bay Area, including the East Bay valleys and hills, from 7 p.m. Monday to 3 a.m. Tuesday.

Weather officials were most concerned about the effect rain could have on vulnerable fire-burn scars.

Sunnier, drier skies were expected to prevail in the latter half of the week. Weather officials anticipated that the storm would enter the middle of the country midweek and the East Coast by Friday.
