reports of flooding. here is a look at storm surge on the bay right now. all parts of the bay area will feel the brunt of this system pushing on shore right now as we get into the later afternoon hours, and the evening commute will be a mess. these are the highest concerns right now flooding on roadways, streams, creeks flooding, mudslides, rock slides also extreme concerns. also the concerns of downed trees and power outages both we have reported on already. let's go over to meteorologist drew tuma for more. drew: we are in the window right now where the highest concern is court flooding and strong damaging winds. look at the surface winds right now gusting at 50 miles per hour in the half moon bay. it's a similar story, gusting to 40 at sfo. and there's a recipe for a mess

of an evening over the next several hours. winds and hills not out of the question, some of these spots could gust close to 80 miles per hour as this atmosphere moves through. watch the timestamp, 9:00, we are still seeing widespread wind gusts between 40 and 50 miles per hour or higher. that -- then we have several hours to get through with these strong winds. even by midnight the coast is still blowing at 50 miles per hour. we had wind gusts close to already miles per hour. it's not until the early morning hours tomorrow behind the cold front that the winds will actually back off, this is a long-duration winds that we have here. thus, we have a high wind warning in effect for the entire region. between 50 and 60 miles per hour. more will come down this evening, we will see more power outages thanks to the winds. flood watch also in effect, national weather service has issued a weather advisory across

much of the bay area as this weather moves through we will see flooding especially on our roads, streams and creeks. we've been talking about how the soil is so saturated from the previous weekend storm and from the rain in the days passed. everything that falls right now will run off our land, right into our roads and into our streams and creeks. we are watching within this heavy rain within the next several hours. rainfall estimates within a four and five hour one and two inches. spencer comes back we will show you the seven-day forecast. >> several bay area counties are under a state of emergency because of the storm they are marked in red on this map. san mateo and santa clara counties have all declared a state of emergency. the city of danville is under state of american -- of

get people into shelter. one local nonprofit has been rekeying a shuttle bus around, -- has been driving a shuttle bus around. there are more than 2000 people -- 2000 beds for unhoused people , people can bring whatever they can carry. volunteers and police have been walking up and down the waterway corridors here, asking people to evacuate. x we are doing all we can to express how great the situation is. people think they will wait until police come, but they will be dead by then because the water will brush out. or the banks will cave into the creek. >> it may sound harsh but what police are echoing, if it gets to the point where there's a safety issue they will not be able to forcefully evacuate people because of the waters and the safety issue.

they are trying right now to tell people about the mandatory evacuation order. they do say that they have vehicles that can plow through certain amount of feet of water, several feet of water but that is not a situation that they want to be in. right now, everyone is taking advantage of the somewhat calm her conditions compared to the rest of the bay area to get people in here and get them to safety. we will continue to monitor everything going on in the south bay, and everywhere else areas live in south bay, zach fuentes, abc 7 news. >> now to the east bay, >> good evening, i want to start by saying that the town of danville has declared a state of emergency following saturday's flood. and this is the san ramon three -- this is the san ramon creek, which caused massive flooding. crews are starting to take advantage of the daylight, to cut down more trees and dead branches to clear that creek,

the goal is to remove branches and debris, keep the water flowing and prevent more flooding. they've also put out sandbags and straw along the creek to reinforce the area. once the heavy rain starts to come down, we will see if it holds up. i want to show you video from earlier today, over the past few hours crews have been working to clear the streets which are still covered in thick mud from saturday storm. this is video of the green book -- greenbrook neighborhood. i spoke to one resident, who said he's watched creek overflow on saturday, and he knows what to expect. >> i would say the biggest thing, that little creek, the san ramon creek, one set starts filling up, it can jump up eight-10 feet, that's a lot of water. and it's pouring through their going very very fast. i'm not sure what to do, to be honest, because that water is very powerful.

when it comes over there, it is moving, and it will knock things down. dangerous. very dangerous. >> mr. kicklighter says daughter was supposed to come down this weekend, they change plans because if there's a severe flooding they don't know if they will able to get out to get to the airport. the san mateo fire department wants to warn residents, first, there will be a lot of heavy winds tonight and there could be downed power lines and downed trees. the other thing to expect is power outages. they say if you can, stay home. and finally, we have been repeating all day, stay away from standing water. we've had 100 phone calls, emergency phone calls in saturday and those couple hours they had heavy flooding. they really need people -- they need emergency crews available for severe emergencies. >> you do not want to get

car stuck in standing water if you don't realize how deep it is. >> yes. absolutely. we continue to monitor this situation and we will have the latest on the weather after we late(steven)e weather after we every time i come to see caremore, they go above and beyond to take care of me. i feel a lot better now. i'm taking medication for what i should have been taking years ago.
