About noon the atmospheric River began moving south as far south away from the SF Bay area

 After drenching parts of Santa Cruz mountains with over 11 inches of rain the storm moved south towards San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara and Los Angeles and San Diego and northern Mexico. They water was great and the damage to our SF Bay area was not that great. So, on balance the storm did the state an amazing amount of good. This was the biggest storm of this rainy season so far. Up to 7 feet or more of snow came down in the Sierras and further eastward. There's another storm though much lighter due starting late Wednesday night I believe too through Early Friday morning
