The last of the rain was expected to fall on Thursday from a pair of cold fronts that have sent scattered showers throughout the Bay Area since Monday, with the second system beginning to shift south toward the central coast, according to the National Weather Service.

The steady but mostly light-falling rain came down consistently through Wednesday night and into Thursday morning. It fell heaviest in the North Bay, with Mount Tamalpais again getting the most.
The weather service in a radar image shared on social media also said that a healthy band surged through the South Bay before sunrise on Thursday. The weather service said Mineta San Jose International Airport reported .19 inches over a two-hour stretch overnight.
As the system moves south, it also will carry with it the possibility for thunderstorms with lightning strikes. The weather service said there is a 10-20% chance of thunder and lightning along the central coast, with the highest risk being in San Benito County. Small hail also may fall.
By Friday, the weather service expects the rain in the region to be finished. The clouds will remain through Friday before sun bathes the area on Saturday and Sunday. Temperatures are expected to stay mild, with the hottest places expected to rise into the high 70s and possibly cracking 80 degrees over the weekend.
