Northern California is bracing for another rain storm this week.

National Weather Service meteorologists are forecasting moderate to heavy rain starting today through early next week across the Bay Area, Central Valley and Sierra Foothills. Snowfall in Sierra is expected on monday. Fire officials says the added moisture could help calm wildfire activity in the coming days.

The Sunday to Tuesday period looks especially wet with heavier rain and snow potential. Several inches of rain are expected in the Sierra and Coastal Range and at least an inch of Valley rain is possible from this period of rain. The week’s first storm moved through Sunday night, bringing enough snow to shut down highways over the Sierra’s higher passes. Ten inches of snow fell in a few Sierra locations.
