(KRON) — As cleanup from Wednesday evening’s storm continues, the Bay Area is still dealing with wind, rain and hazardous driving conditions.
Local officials advise residents to stay off the roads if possible as landslides and flash flooding are still possible.
Thursday morning, residents woke up to coastal chaos from Santa Cruz and San Mateo counties up to San Francisco and Marin including collapsed ocean piers, massive 35-foot waves, tide surges and widespread flooding.
Thursday morning, crews in Pacifica responded to a rockslide on northbound CA-1 past Manor Drive blocking the right lane.
Also Thursday, a homeowner in Paradise Cay woke up to find their backyard tree fallen onto a neighbor’s home due to saturated soil & high winds. Homeowners say no one was hurt, reports KRON4’s Michael Thomas.
And a whole building found themselves having to relocate due to a tree that fell on a three-story apartment building on Lynde Street in Oakland, according to Oakland Fire Chief Dr. Reginald Freeman. Power to the building was also compromised and the building was turned over to Oakland Housing Authority, Freeman said in a tweet.
Oakland Planning and Building has determined the building is unsafe to occupy at this time. Eight residences were impacted and the owner has relocated the occupants. Once the tree has been removed, Freeman said two apartments will remain “yellow-tagged,” meaning the units have sustained moderate damage and habitability is limited. No injuries were reported.
Wednesday night, strong winds knocked the canopy of a San Fransisco Valero gas station to the ground. At least two of the gas station’s pumps, located in the area of King Drive and Callan Boulevard, were also ripped apart.
The canopy of gas station, toppled by strong winds, rests at an angle, Wednesday, Jan. 4, 2023, in South San Francisco. Another winter storm moved into California on Wednesday, walloping the northern part of the state with more rain and snow. It’s the second major storm of the week in the parched state. It follows storms that brought threats of flash flooding and severe thunderstorms across the southern U.S. and heavy snow in the upper Midwest. (AP Photo/Godofredo A. Vásquez)

San Pablo also dealt with power outages from downed trees in several areas and flooding on Road 20 between San Pablo Avenue and Abella Circle Wednesday night.
