SAN FRANCISCO (AP) – The Latest on storms in California (all times local):

3:00 p.m.

The first outer rain bands from a storm headed to Northern California are bringing light rain, wind and renewed warnings of possible flooding.

Forecasters say a powerful Pacific storm will reach the San Francisco Bay Area on Sunday night and move to the already soggy Central Valley.

San Joaquin County Office of Emergency Services spokesman Tim Daly said Sunday afternoon the San Joaquin River near a measuring station near Vernalis remains at “danger stage,” meaning it keeps approaching the top of levies.
