The edge of an atmospheric river-fueled storm front was skirting the northwest corner of California Monday morning and bringing rain south to the North Bay later in the day, forecasters said.

As of early Monday, the National Weather Service said rain was moving into the state as it has in Washington and Oregon and the associated cold front would be moving southeast across California throughout the day Tuesday.

The weather service said the cold front would weaken as it moves south, bringing only a few hundredths of an inch of rain in the Bay Area through Tuesday morning. The North Bay could see rainfall as early as later Monday morning, although more likely in the afternoon and evening. Most of the Bay Area rain is expected to fall north of the Golden Gate.

Aside from the rain, southerly winds will strengthen ahead of the incoming cold front, the weather service said. There will be lingering drizzle into Tuesday morning when dry conditions will resume, the weather service said. 

In addition, a large northwest swell coming from the powerful low-pressure system over the northeast Pacific is prompting a High Surf Advisory for the Pacific coastline for most of the day Tuesday. Large breaking waves of 12 to 16 feet are expected with breaking wave heights of 15 to 20 feet.

The Beach Hazards Statement has been replaced by a High Surf Advisory, which is in effect from 5 AM to 11 PM Tuesday due to incoming large NW swell.

The High Surf Advisory will be in effect from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. Tuesday for San Francisco, Coastal North Bay Including Point Reyes National Seashore, San Francisco Peninsula Coast, Northern Monterey Bay and Southern Monterey Bay, and Big Sur Coast Counties.

Beach-goers were urged to use caution and stay aware of their surroundings if planning to go to the beach, especially for northwest-facing beaches.

When Elvin Bishop and Charlie Musselwhite return to the Chicago area for Thursday’s concert at Ravinia, it will be a homecoming of sorts. 

Both musicians lived in Chicago in the early 1960s, an era when they were developing their craft by observing blues titans like Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf and Big Joe Williams. 

Bishop, 80, and Musselwhite, 79, are now members of the Blues Foundation’s Blues Hall of Fame. 

Bishop, who sings and plays guitar, was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2015 as a member of the Paul Butterfield Blues Band. Musselwhite is recognized as one of the world’s greatest harmonica players, with a style that is distinctive for its emotive subtleties. 

At Ravinia, the duo will be joined by multi-instrumentalist Bob Welsh for a set featuring songs from their 2020 collaborative album “100 Years of Blues.” Released by the Chicago label Alligator Records, the album topped the Billboard blues album chart and received a Grammy nomination. 

The lyrics to the autobiographical title track include references to Pepper’s Lounge and Silvio’s, two long-gone Chicago blues clubs that served as the musicians’ training grounds. Bishop and Musselwhite made the leap from fan to performer, fueled by invitations to sit in with bands that played long past midnight. 

“With all the different bands happening, it was a great scene for a young musician who was ambitious and wanted to develop a little bit,” Bishop said in an interview from his recording studio in Lagunitas, California.

“You’d go around to all these clubs, and it was to your advantage to know everybody’s tunes that you went to see,” Bishop said.

“I don’t care how famous you were, when it gets to be about 2 or 3 in the morning, you’ll be glad to see any kind of help you can get. So you tried to learn the tunes and make as good a showing as you could because that was like putting in your resume or a job application. So, if a vacancy popped up, they’d think of you.”

Musselwhite had a similar experience. When a friend told Muddy Waters about Musselwhite’s harmonica skills, the blues icon asked the young man to sit in with his band. That led to more gigs and groundbreaking recording sessions for Musselwhite as a sideman and leader.

“I wasn’t hungering to be in the spotlight,” Musselwhite said from his home in Clarksdale, Mississippi. “I loved the music, and I just played it for myself. I wasn’t thinking about a career in music. Having me sit in wasn’t really unusual because [Waters] had people sitting in all the time. [Bands] would play till 4 in the morning, except Saturday nights, when they played till 5. That’s a lot of time to kill. So Muddy was happy to have people sitting in.” 

“!00 Years of Blues” album cover.

The duo’s “front-porch” style of stripped-down blues is a great fit for Ravinia’s outdoor Carousel Stage, where the duo is likely to play material from Musselwhite’s 2022 solo album “Mississippi Son,” which features his original tune “Blues Gave Me a Ride.”

The harmonica wizard has one exceptionally famous fan: former President Barack Obama. Musselwhite said he has had two conversations with Obama — one at a campaign fundraiser in San Francisco, the other during a 2013 White House performance.

Musselwhite said of the Bay Area interaction: “I gave Obama a harmonica, and I said, ‘I’ve heard that you like blues, and, if you’re interested, I could give you a few tips on how to play it.’ And he said, ‘Well, that’s really nice, Charlie. But I’m pretty busy right now.’” 

Bishop’s early years were spent in an Iowa farmhouse that didn’t have electricity or indoor plumbing. His family moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma, and Bishop earned a National Merit Scholarship and enrolled at the University of Chicago. 

Bishop’s family didn’t have much income, and he was the first one in the family to attend college. He still has vivid memories of his family’s struggles.

“My dad stayed unemployed quite a bit,” Bishop said. “I remember I was in Chicago, and I got a letter from my mom, and it was typed on paper towels. My dad had got a job as a janitor, so he’d bring the rolls of paper towels home.”

Musselwhite was raised by a single mother in Memphis, Tennessee. Seeking a good job, as a young adult he moved to Chicago, where he found factory work. He also served as an exterminator’s assistant, spraying for roaches and dispensing rat poison.

Reflecting on his journey from youthful apprentice to elder statesman, Musselwhite said, “I don’t know how I got this old so fast.”

SALT LAKE CITY — When it gets this cold and stays cold, some water lines in some Utah homes may freeze.

Frozen pipes can cause a costly problem, especially if the ice cracks a pipe.

“Any time it drops below 20 (Fahrenheit) we get calls about frozen pipes. Hey, I have no water in all or part of my house,'” explained Duane Nielsen, plumbing manager at Any Hour Services.

Nielsen has been helping people with frozen pipes and other plumbing emergencies for over four decades.

Suppose the plumbing isn’t buried deep enough or exposed to cold air in a crawl space or under a sink against a wall; the risk of freezing increases. If your pipes are sensitive to frost, or don’t know if they are, Nielsen suggests keeping the water moving gently.

“One of the best things you can do is just turn on a faucet in your house to a trickle. It lets the water flow through and keep going and doesn’t have a cold spot where it gets really, really cold,” the plumber said.

The coldest temperature in the US was recorded in Peter Sinks, Utah on Monday

If water in the pipe freezes and expands, it can rupture the pipe. When the water drizzles, the water has no chance of freezing in the pipe.

“We call it the drop just before a drizzle. We want to keep it that way,” said Nielsen.

He also worries that moisture that has recently seeped into the ground could cause some pipes to freeze.

“We’ve had a lot of moisture seeping into the ground over the past month and not a lot of snowpack. This blanket of snow forms a blanket that insulates the ground and keeps it a little warmer.”

Nielsen said moisture in the soil could push the frost line lower.

“It could drive that frost line down and make our pipes coming off the meter a little colder and maybe have some problems,” he said.

If you have a frozen pipe, you can warm it up with a hair dryer, but never with a blowtorch as it could cause serious accidents.

The stolen devices were all traced back to one location: A Quickly boba tea shop on Larkin Street right in the Tenderloin neighborhood of San Francisco.

Quoc Le, 41, was arrested Monday and faces at least a dozen felony and misdemeanor charges of “possession of stolen property.” Le’s wife is the owner and franchisee of the Taiwanese-based chain; she has not been charged.

And on Tuesday, in a stunning revelation, Boudin announced his arrest was part of an operation known as “Operation Auto Pilot” — which uncovered an “massive global operation” of car thefts and illicit electronic sales that reached as far wide as Vietnam and Hong Kong.

“Auto burglaries in San Francisco have, for at least a decade, been one of the leading categories of crime. We know that it’s had a devastating impact, not only on our own residents, but on … the entire tourist industry.”

In 2021, there was a total of 20,663 “theft from vehicle” incidents reported to police — a 39 percent increase from the year before, but lower than the peak of over 31,000 in 2017. Only a fraction of them lead to an arrest, Boudin said.

San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin speaks to reporters in San Francisco, Wednesday, Jan. 8, 2020.

Jeff Chiu/Associated Press 2020

How the sting worked, Boudin explained in a press conference Tuesday afternoon, feels ripped out of a “Law and Order” episode.

Under Operation Auto Pilot, which has been in the works for at least two years, “bait cars” were placed in “strategic locations” throughout San Francisco with high rates of car theft — Japantown and Alamo Square among them.

Inside these vehicles were bags of electronics, embedded with tracking devices. The goal was not to arrest thieves on the street, Boudin said, but to see how far this trade of stolen goods went. “The goal of this operation was to map out the flow of stolen goods in San Francisco and beyond, to identify the networks that are moving millions and millions of dollars of stolen goods from cars in San Francisco around the country and the world.”

Where those devices traveled to was stunning. Not only did they find these decoy devices and other stolen goods led to the Larkin St. location of the stalwart boba franchise, but stolen devices were found as far as Europe and Asia.

Boudin said the team wrote and secured over a dozen search warrants that let them dig through “financial transactions and shipping activity.”

“Large volumes” of wares were being shipped to Texas, he added.

In all, Boudin said that his team of individuals gathered 130 boxes of electronics from the Quickly — and hope to find more connected to this network of car break-ins. He alluded to “numerous locations under surveillance that are storage operations” for these rings.

This operation puts into question one of the tentpole advertisements made by the campaign to recall Boudin, in which former prosecutor Shirin Oloumi alleged that Boudin “dissolved that unit and prevented me from collaborating with the police.” (A report from progressive local outlet 48 Hills said that Oloumi, in her resignation letter, alluded to Operation Auto Pilot and commended its future success.)

Boudin responded to the recall effort explicitly in the presser. “There’s lots of people who are long on money and short on facts who have criticisms of this office,” he said. “I couldn’t be prouder of the work that our team is doing and has done with this operation.”

The operation was conducted in collaboration with the Department of Homeland Security, SF SAFE and local law enforcement. It is ongoing.

Le will be arranged in court Tuesday afternoon.

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF/AP/BCN) – A new cold front coming to California motivated weather services to issue storm warnings Wednesday, with significant rain forecast along with the possibility of cloud-to-ground lightning and hail.

“Locally heavy rain could cause some brief ponding on roads, but significant flooding shouldn’t be a problem,” said KPIX meteorologist Paul Heggen. “Enough hail on the roads could make them slick. We won’t see numerous lightning strikes, but even a couple would pose a threat to anyone outdoors at the time.”

The Santa Rosa Fire Department tweeted a warning about the potential for “pea- to marble-size hail” on Thursday into the evening hours.

The system is the latest in a series of spring storms that has followed a dry winter that left California deep in drought.

Widespread rain, heavy mountain snow and periods of gusty winds were predicted to begin Wednesday afternoon and last into Friday, possibly spreading showers down into Southern California, the National Weather Service said.

“This system continues to look like a very good late-season precipitation event for the region,” the Sacramento weather office wrote.

Higher elevations were expected to receive at least 1 foot to 2 feet (30-60 centimeters) of snow. Rainfall predictions ranged up to 3 inches (7.6 centimeters), with possibly higher amounts if thunderstorms develop.

Winter storm warnings were scheduled to start going into effect from the Oregon border down through the southern Cascades and northern Sierra Nevada.

Travelers were likely to face whiteout conditions, road closures and chain controls, forecasters said.

“Any Sierra driving will be treacherous after today. It would be a good idea to delay non-essential travel until conditions improve,” the Reno, Nevada, weather office wrote. “If this isn’t possible, be sure to carry chains and winter survival supplies in your vehicle.”

As the Bay Area braces for a storm on the horizon that promises to bring up to an inch of rain to most of the region, the National Weather Service issued a warning to the public about the danger the tempest will pose on the coast.

The service also raised projected rain totals for some areas early Wednesday.

Deadly sneaker waves and strong rip currents are part of a beach hazards statement in effect from 3 am Thursday until 3 am Saturday for virtually the entire coastline from northern Sonoma County south to Big Sur.

Northwest swells are expected about 12 feet at 18-20 seconds early Thursday and 3-4 seconds more frequent from Thursday through early Saturday.

Although the storm is projected to begin Wednesday afternoon in the North Bay, much of the region won’t see precipitation until early Thursday morning.

Most of the Bay Area is still projected to see .5 to 1 inch of rain, but projections for some of the more hilly regions of northern Sonoma and Sonoma counties have gone up .5 of an inch to 1.5-2 inches of rain.

DONNER SUMMIT (CBS SF/AP) — A fast-moving storm front dumped about 2 feet of snow at the UC Berkeley Central Sierra Snow Lab nestled near Donner Summit, but warming temperatures were quickly melting away the Spring bounty.

“We received some #snow in the last day but rain moved in, melted it, and it turned to ice overnight. So, we have only 0.6″ (1.5 cm) of #snow to report this morning,” the researchers tweeted on Sunday.

Mammoth Mountain in the eastern Sierra reported a foot of fresh snow. The resort has said it would now remain open to skiing and snowboarding until Memorial Day.

Lake Tahoe resorts also reported significant snowfall. Drivers heading up to the mountains were urged to use caution because of slippery conditions.

Parts of Northern California including the Bay Area could see pockets of rain for much of the coming week thanks to an unsettled weather pattern stalling over the region, the National Weather Service said.

The welcome precipitation could help slow the start of the fire season, but won’t do anything to alleviate the state’s drought, said Matt Mehle with the weather service office in San Francisco.

“What this rain is doing is bringing moisture and allowing grasses and finer fuels to grow and green up,” Mehle told the San Francisco Chronicle. “It will alleviate fire concerns, at least for the short term.”

The wet spring weather follows an exceptionally dry winter that leaves California facing another year of drought and tightening water supplies.

A weak cold front moving across Northern California delivered mostly drizzle across the drought-stricken region Monday night into Tuesday morning but some isolated locations, especially to the far north, saw significant rain.

In the San Francisco Bay Area, one location along the Sonoma Coast had recorded a half-inch by 5 pm Monday with other locations around the North Bay reporting a hundredth to a couple tenths of an inch, the National Weather Service reported. The amounts were small, but amid a drought, any rain was welcomed.

“Rain right now in #SanFrancisco,” wrote a Twitter user. “I’ve never been so happy in my life to walk in the #rain”

Sidewalks and roadways across San Francisco were wet during the Monday evening commute.

“Aggressive drizzle in San Francisco,” wrote ABC 7 meteorologist Drew Tuma on Twitter.

Here’s a look at some rainfall totals for the SF Bay Area:

Bodega Bay 0.21 inch

The farthest reaches of the state at the California-Oregon border saw the most significant rainfall and Crescent City broke a same-day record, measuring 1.65 inches, John Garner a forecaster with the weather service’s Eureka office said. The gauge at the Arcata Airport recorded .34 inch.

Near Redding, where the Fawn Fire has destroyed 40 homes, a few hundredths of an inch were recorded, Katrina Hand, a forecaster with the weather service’s Sacramento office said.

Even some snow likely dusted the highest elevations.

“Great sight for September!” NBC Bay Area meteorologist Jeff Ranieri tweeted. “#Snow over Mt. Shasta highest peaks and rain for the fire zones.”

Hand noted that temperatures atop Mount Shasta suggested snow was possible.

Wet, drizzly weather could continue into Tuesday.

The cold front that dropped down from the Pacific Northwest is carrying in a mass of cold air and and by late Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, temperatures in inland valleys could dip into the low 40s with coastal areas likely to stay in the 50s.

“At 9:55 am, the Doppler radar showed heavy rain moving in the direction of the San Mateo Coast,” the weather service said in its statement. “This will lead to flooding in cities and small streams.”

Some places flooding will occur, forecasters said, including San Francisco, Daly City, San Mateo, Redwood City, South San Francisco, San Bruno, Pacifica, Burlingame, Half Moon Bay, and Hillsborough.

Sudden floods have already proven fatal during the current storm.

The San Mateo County coroner office on Monday identified the couple who were found dead in a flooded vehicle in a flooded underpass in Millbrae during last week’s storm.
