A third winter-like storm in a week brought rain and strong winds to much of Northern California and snow to the Sierra Nevada on Sunday.
One person was injured in an accident on Highway 101 that blocked all lanes near San Rafael, north of San Francisco, the California Highway Patrol said.
The latest storm will dump slightly less rain in the state than the previous systems - with the San Francisco Bay Area and the San Joaquin Valley expected to get up to about half an inch, National Weather Service meteorologist Nathan Owen said.
The National Weather Service issued a strong wind advisory for the San Francisco Bay Area that will stay in effect through Sunday night, saying wind with gusts of 40 to 50 mph are forecast for the area.
In Southern California, chains were required Saturday on several roads leading to the Bear Mountain and Snow Summit resorts after several inches of snow fell on the San Bernardino Mountains.
