Meteorologist Lisa Argen from ABC7 confirmed that a Level 3 storm, characterized by heavy rain and strong winds, was expected to continue until around 7 a.m., adding to the already tumultuous morning.
The intense weather has also led to power outages in several parts of the Bay Area. Utility companies are reportedly working to restore electricity as quickly as possible, though no specific timeline has been provided.
Residents are advised to stay alert to changing weather conditions and heed any further warnings or advisories from local authorities.
