After a brief reprieve from storms, another rainmaker is set to hit California on Thursday and soak parts of the state that have already set November precipitation records. … Rainfall is generally expected to remain below a quarter of an inch in the Bay Area, but locally higher totals are possible, especially if showers are stronger than forecast. Showers are expected to reach Southern California by Thursday afternoon and stick around through Friday. … The system, once again, won’t bring much snow to the Sierra Nevada. The bulk of the precipitation is expected to remain along the coast, but any moisture that does reach the Sierra will probably fall as rain rather than snow below 7,000 feet.
