While the water is definitely needed, some places are concerned now about the possibility of flooding. Ktvus alex savage is live in san rafael, with the precautions before the weekend rain hit. Reporter things have been dry in san rafael throughout the morning, but things are about to change in a big way. Were going to get a whole lot of rain, and its going to come all at once basically this weekend, and thats why here at san rafael fire station number two, they have sand, and they have sandbags and they have the shovel. All ready to go for people to come down here and get sandbags to put near their home, if theyre worried about flooding. The battalion chief here at the station told me a short time ago, this pile was much bigger earlier on this week. Clearly a lot of homeowners have trying to be ready for the downpour thats expected this weekend. We have a little preview of whats to come as a storm blew through during yesterday mornings commute. Most areas picked up less than an inch of rain yesterday. Later today, though, things get worse. The forecast calls for several inches of rain to fall in most areas. Some areas will get more rain in 2 days than they did during all of last year, and with so much rain falling after such a long dry spell, firefighters here in marin say they are worried about the possibility of mud slides. It will be interesting to see what happens with the long spell of dry and then getting a large dump of rain to see how that affects us, but anywhere usually backyards, clogged drains, what we have is if anybody sees any leaves or anything in a drain or anything like that, let us know or the department of public works, if we can get ahead of the clogs, that will be ourest issue. Across the bay area, crews are clearing out drains and making preparations to avoid flooding with the huge storm. The santa clara Water District is working to clear debris to make sure the rain can flow freely once it arrives this weekend. As we come back out here leave, this is the picture in san rafael at fire station number two. Firefighters offering up sand and sandbags and they know this sand will be in high demand later on today. Likely this will be a busy fire station. Theyll have the sandbags available here at station number two and also station number five and the battalion chief tells me with the storm set to arrive later this afternoon, theyll be getting another shipment of sand coming in at some point today.

Whats unusual in this case is the quilt that was covered her body. Investigators hope that someone will recognize this quilt or even some of the material used to make it.
