Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood
deaths occur in vehicles.

Be especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize the
dangers of flooding.

Be aware of your surroundings and do not drive on flooded roads.

In hilly terrain there are hundreds of low water crossings which are
potentially dangerous in heavy rain. Do not attempt to cross flooded
roads. Find an alternate route.

Please report observed flooding to local emergency services or law
enforcement and request they pass this information to the National
Weather Service when you can do so safely.

* WHAT...South winds 15 to 30 mph with gusts up to 50 mph expected,
locally higher gusts greater than 65 mph are possible above 2,500
feet.

* WHERE...Coastal and higher elevation regions of the North Bay, the
city of San Francisco, the East Bay and Santa Clara Hills, Santa
Cruz Mountains and San Mateo, the Gabilan Range, the Santa Lucia
Range, southern Monterey Bay, and coastal Big Sur.

* WHEN...Until 10 PM PST this evening.

* IMPACTS...Gusty winds will blow around unsecured objects. Tree
limbs could be blown down and a few power outages may result. The
combination of wind and moist soils will increase the risk for
downed trees particularly across the North Bay.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...A narrow frontal rain band will move through
the Bay Area and Central Coast today which will result in gusty
south winds ahead of and during its passage. Winds will start to
ease overnight after the frontal rain band has progressed out of
the region. Moderate to heavy rains over the last 48 hours have
saturated soils across the North Bay which will lead to increased
risk of downed trees and power lines as gusty winds redevelop.

Winds this strong can make driving difficult, especially for high
profile vehicles. Use extra caution.

Secure outdoor objects.
