(KRON) -- The storms dousing the Bay Area continue with cities scrambling to clean up Mother Nature's mess.
Saturated soil is causing fallen trees and landslides to impact roads, power outages are impacting thousands and flooding is still a risk, especially in the North Bay, according to KRON4 Meteorologist John Shrable.
The heaviest and most widespread rain for Tuesday is expected to begin falling around 10 a.m. and stop around 4 p.m., according to Shrable.
