Dry air and some sun will hold over the Great Lakes, but the rain to the south could creep northward several dozen miles later in the day. A thorough soaking is in store for parts of the southern Appalachians, while locally severe storms erupt over parts of the Tennessee and lower Mississippi valleys. A batch of showers will push southward over the northern Plains. Some rain will linger in Colorado.

Power had been re- stored to nearly all of the 90,000 customers who lost power in the Financial Dis- trict and other areas of the city, Pacific Gas & Electric spokesman Barry Ander- son said. About 3,000 cus- tomers remained without power late Friday after- noon, the utility said. The Fire Department tweeted that it had re- sponded to more than 100 calls for service, in- cluding 20 stuck elevators with people inside. At hos- pitals, surgeries were dis- rupted briefly but no prob- lems were reported because backup generators kicked in, Mayor Ed Lee said. "The best news of all was no injuries were asso- ciated with this incident," Fire Chief Joanne Hayes- White said. No traffic collisions were reported, either, and of- ficials thanked motorists for driving so cautiously during the blackout. In fact, people in the city of 850,000 people were gen- erally courteous to each another. The city's iconic cable cars were taken out of ser- vice as a precaution since streetlights were not oper- ating on large parts of their routes. Tourists weren't grip- ing, though, said spokes- woman Erica Kato. "Every- one's very understanding — it's not us," she said. The outage initially closed the Bay Area Rapid Transit agency's downtown Montgomery Station. Peo- ple used the lights of their cellphones to walk through the darkened station before service was restored. Later, people milled on sidewalks, controllers di- rected traffic manually, and shops were dark. Some buildings had power, others did not. ATM screens were blank and the city's famed cable cars were shut down for hours. People were confused about what was going on and what to do, said Pam Martinez, a 25-year-old San Francisco resident and soft- ware engineer who was on a train when she heard the announcement that her des- tination station was closed. "Even crossing the street was chaotic because the streetlights don't work and there's a few ambulances trying to go through the crowds," Martinez said. "It's pretty crazy." Patricio Herrera sat glumly in his darkened res- taurant, Ziggy's Burgers, at what should have been a busy lunch hour full of peo- ple hungry for his freshly ground hamburgers. "We have lost everything today," said Herrera, the store's consulting chef and manager. Six employees sat at tables behind him, chatting or checking their phones. Employees at a Star- bucks gave giving away cups of iced and hot cof- fee in the darkened shop. A worker said that was bet- ter than letting the coffee go to waste. Many of those affected used social media to vent their frustrations or post celebratory memes about getting off work early to play. Police Chief William Scott said officers were working to clear traffic as quickly as possible, but in the meantime folks should just relax.
