Mount Tamalpais received nearly 3 inches of rain from an early-season system that moved through the Bay Area this week.

The mountain got 2.79 inches of rain in the seven-day period from 3 p.m. Sept. 26 to 3 p.m. Friday, according to the National Weather Service.

Reservoir storage in the watershed was measured at 64,599 acre feet, or 81.14% of capacity, on Thursday, about equivalent to this time last year, according to the Marin Municipal Water District.

The average for this time of year is 53,698 acre feet, or 67.49%. Total district storage capacity in Alpine, Bon Tempe, Kent, Lagunitas, Nicasio, Phoenix and Soulajule reservoirs is 79,566 acre feet.

As is often the case, the higher elevations in the Bay Area got the most rain. Elsewhere in Marin, Point Reyes Station received 0.43 inches while Novato received 0.05 inches, the weather agency said.

The light rain in the past week wasn’t enough to end fire season, experts say. But it was enough to clear out dust, smoke and other pollutants from the air and significantly decrease fire risk for now.

At least 10 days of fair weather is predicted through mid-October, bringing dry conditions back to the Bay Area, the agency said.

Other seven-day rain totals in the region this week included Mount St. Helena, 1.57 inches; Mount Hamilton, 1.06; Mount Diablo, 0.72; Santa Rosa: 0.55; Bodega Bay, 0.54; Richmond, 0.29; downtown San Francisco, 0.12; and Petaluma, 0.08.
