This round of king tides on Northern California coastline will be the king of them all

Drivers navigating the entrance onto the westbound direction of the Bay Bridge during the commute Friday morning had something other than traffic to stress them out — water from the San Francisco Bay flowing onto Interstate 80 near the metering lights and toll plaza.

The third round of king tides since November arrived Friday, coinciding with a set of storms that started to drop rain Wednesday and won’t stop doing so until Monday afternoon, according to the National Weather Service.
