The fast-moving storm that blew through the Bay Area from Tuesday night to Wednesday dropped less than a quarter-inch of rain on most Bay Area cities.
As meteorologists had predicted, the North Bay and Santa Cruz Mountains got the highest rainfall totals by far, and several higher-altitude weather stations recorded wind gusts over 60 mph. The charts below show data for sites in Marin County and Bay Area points to the south.
Peak gust reports from Wednesday, Nov. 5
The strongest gust was recorded on Gunsight Fire Road, above Woodacre. Five of the other sites in the top 10 are also in Marin County. In Santa Clara County, the highest wind speed was 61 mph, at a station in the hills above Los Gatos.
