Description:

The bulk of the rain from this week’s atmospheric river has passed over the Bay Area, but forecasters expect high winds to remain through Wednesday evening.

Wind speeds reached 82 mph in the hills of Marin County. In Hayward, a tree toppled over, smashing a car, said Cynthia Palmer, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service’s Bay Area office.

Strong gusts knocked out power to several thousand PG&E customers in the Bay Area on Wednesday morning, most of them in Marin County. Minor nuisance flooding occurred across the region.

The National Weather Service said minor coastal flooding could occur today due to higher-than-normal tides this week, and “thanks to a supermoon” on Wednesday. Supermoons bring the highest and lowest tides and can result in flooding. The service has issued a coastal flood advisory through Saturday at 2 p.m.

In Mill Valley, as of Wednesday at 1 p.m., Miller Avenue was closed in both directions between Camino Alto and Almonte Boulevard because of significant flooding, according to the Mill Valley Police Department.
