Rain pelted the Bay Area again Friday morning as the most intense part of the second wave in a storm pattern whipped its way onto shore accompanied by cold, gusty winds similar to those that blew during the first round.

The Bay Area’s latest storm system delivered a powerful mix of heavy winds, scattered thunderstorms and steady rainfall. Though flooding wasn’t reported Wednesday, the gusts were strong enough to knock out power.
