up in parts of glen county there. there were two sightings of funnel clouds. and now, down to plaster county. down to the area of roseville, where there were three sightings of funnel clouds. and no official report of a tornado. from the damage reports we're getting, it appears that a tornado may well have touched down in that area. those storms are losing the intensity right now. and here in the bay area, our own funnel cloud sighting this afternoon. it was brief. but a funnel cloud sighting nonetheless, in eastern contra costa county. that was about 3:10 this afternoon. there have been areas of powerful thunderstorms, outside the central part of the bay area. we have a few little patches of scattered showers coming through. i'll give you a look at what's coming next. i'll have the forecast in a few minutes. >> thanks so much. the wild weather sent a tree into a car in san francisco. unfortunately, one person went to the hospital. it happened near bush and
