Warm SF weather this week to give way to heavy rain

San Francisco’s warm start to the week will give way to heavy rains and winds as a weakening Pacific Northwest storm is expected to descend upon the Bay Area this weekend. National Weather Service meteorologists said Monday that temperatures this week will hit highs in the low 70s before dropping on Friday into the low to mid 60s. Prior to landfall on Friday, this week’s storm system is also expected to bring sneaker waves, rip currents and breaking waves from 12 feet to 16 feet to San Francisco’s coastline .

Throughout the upcoming storm season, city agencies said they will maintain street drains and other infrastructure to minimize local flooding risks. This week’s warm temperatures are preceding a weather pattern that is developing offshore and expected to begin moving closer to The City on Thursday, causing air to
