Looks like it might hurt, but at least the weather was good. Lets check in with frances lawson. It was plenty of sunshine early on. Right now were under mostly sunny conditions except along the coast. In fact, quite a bit of clouds along the peninsula coast as well. Were getting some clear skies around the bay area. Temperatures range from 60s at the coast to mid 90s once again. And we had comfortable 70s around the bay. San francisco is currently at 65 degrees. San jose currently at 79. And this is a little bit cooler compared to where we were 24 hours ago for many areas. Some were just about the same, like San Francisco and Half Moon Bay. But its only been in the 60s there and its going to stay that way through the week. Other areas that were warm definitely fell a lot, like concord dropped by 7 degrees. This is due to an increase the sea breeze. You notice gusts up to 30 Miles Per Hour in San Francisco. Even up to 20 Miles Per Hour in novato, and in Half Moon Bay and also san carlos, so that onshore flow bringing us that cooler marine air is going to drop temperatures. And that trend will continue into the week. Overnight lows will see the clouds fill in once again along the coast and into the bay, spreading a little bit farther inland. Temperatures still on the mild side overnight and into tomorrow morning. Mid 50s to low 60s out there. And we could see some drizzle once again, especially near the coast. In daly city, you might need to use your wipers. Its been feeling a lot like summer there throughout the week, which means you dont get much sunshine unfortunately. Highs for tomorrow will be pretty normal in the south bay. Look for a high of 83 in san jose. Thats close to average. Morgan hill and gilroy dropping into the upper 80s, and santa cruz 73 for you. Well see some passing high clouds as well, with once again continued breezy conditions and low clouds at the coast. So Half Moon Bay 63, pacifica 62. Menlo park 77, and in San Francisco 66 degrees with mostly cloudy conditions in the sunset district and in daly city. 64 degrees there. Also in the north bay, well see more sunshine, a few high clouds, and temperatures will range from the upper 60s and sausalito all the way to the mid 90s in ukiah. Still mild and comfortable. Petaluma, novato in the low 80s the and sonoma 78. Well see plenty of 70s in the east bay. Berkeley 71 degrees, again with that sea breeze. Richmond 70 degrees. A little bit warmer as we head farther south, 78 degrees in fremont, inland areas also coming down. Yesterday we saw upper 90s. Today we saw mid 90s. Tomorrow well see low 90s, even some 80s out there. San ramon 88. Livermore 90 degrees. Now the cooling trend that has just started will continue for the next few days, and into the middle of the week. And this is due to an increased on shore flow and marine layer that will bring us cooler temperatures due to a system moving to our north. And then things start to turn around friday, saturday, becomes mild to warm, and then sunday more sunshine, and a warmer day and the mid 90s return to the forecast for the inland neighborhoods around the bay near 80. So it will be a beautiful weekend. All right, frances, thank you very much. Anthony flores here talking a little baseball. Thats right.
