‘More miss than hit’ 49ers game won’t be hit by worst of Bay Area storm

Damp conditions are still expected when the San Francisco 49ers host the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday at 1:30 p.m., but the “potent” game time storm that was predicted to hit as recently as yesterday appears not to have materialized.

According to Braiden Murdock, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service, Santa Clara could still be experiencing showers by kickoff but the worst of the rains will already have passed east into the Central Valley by game time.

“There's still a lot of moderate rain trying to pass into the area right now,” said Murdock in a phone call with SFGATE at 7:45 a.
