It rained on and off — but mostly on — all weekend and, according to the forecast, that is all we are likely to get, at least for a little while.

The precipitation prompted Berkeley residents who braved the weather to shoot some great images and video. Many shared their footage with KQED News Associate Berkeleyside.
