The storm drenching Marin County is predicted to continue doing so through Saturday morning before calming down during the rest of the weekend.
The National Weather Service forecast 2 to 3 inches of rain in the county between Thursday and Saturday morning, meteorologist Brayden Murdock said Thursday afternoon.
“As we go into early tomorrow we’ll see the rain pick up again, and this is going to be a shorter-lived rain session, but there will be elevated rain rates,” he said.
Winds will reach 15 to 30 mph with possible 40 mph gusts on Friday, Murdock said.
Chances of rain will begin declining on Saturday afternoon, the National Weather Service predicts.
“On Saturday night going into a good portion of next week, we’ll have off-and-on showers,” Murdock said.
The storm arrived in Marin on Wednesday. By Thursday afternoon, Murdock said, 6.58 inches had fallen on Mount Tamalpais, 6.13 inches in San Rafael, 4.41 inches in Novato and 4.13 inches in Point Reyes Station.
