SAN FRANCISCO, CA — As the weekend wraps up, we've rounded up all the stories you may have missed Saturday and Sunday to prepare you for Monday.

But before we jump into Northern California’s top stories, the Bay Area can expect a chillier start to May with a few rain showers and a fresh dusting of mountain snow in the cards this week. In sharp contrast to the last few days, the National Weather Service said residents should expect unseasonably cool temperatures to kick off the month, with highs struggling to break into the 60s and lows in the 40s.

While forecasters do not expect significant rain totals, cool showers will be possible for much of the week. Wind gusts Monday could create a few hazards around the region.

The National Park Service plans to reopen Yosemite Valley on Monday following weekend flood concerns, but officials warn visitors that rivers are still running high and fast.
