Los Gatos Sees Gray Skies, Rain Today

Rain is in the forecast for Los Gatos and the South Bay today as a slow-moving storm system made its way into the region early Tuesday, a National Weather Service forecaster said.

The wet weather is expected to last throughout Wednesday and bring half an inch to three-quarters of an inch of rainfall, with more in hilly areas,  forecaster Rick Canepa said.

Another storm system will roll in on Thursday, he said.

Thursday night and early Friday could bring a dusting of snow to Bay Area peaks above 3,000 feet, Canepa said.

While the storms are passing through, high temperatures will likely be in the low to mid-50s, he said.

The good news, Canepa said, is that the clouds are expected to clear and the temperatures to rise by the weekend.

"There's definitely some light at the end of the tunnel," he said.
