Here Comes the Rain Again

While not on par with Christmas Day tsunamis, this storm is pretty nifty, huh? Golden Gate transit buses have stopped, power has been knocked out to hundreds -- yes, hundreds! - of thousands of people, and surely snow is falling really hard atop a mountain somewhere.
But what must actually suck is this morning's nightmare traffic caused by the raindrops falling on our heads. Ahem:
- Marin/Contra Costa County: E-580, Richmond-San Rafael Bridge closed due to multiple overturned big-rigs.
- Marin County: Highway 101 at Interstate Highway 580 closed due to falling debris.
- Contra Costa County: Highway 24 east of Acalanes Road closed due to flooding.
- Alameda County: West 80 at Gilman St. in Berkeley, lane and off-ramp closed due to flooding.
- San Francisco: N-101 near Vermont St. in San Francisco, two lanes blocked due to downed tree.
- An Olympic-sized swimming pool has formed just outside of SFist headquarters. Jump in, everyone!
