I think the bear crawl is the most challenging part. It is harder to bend down and do some of those movements. Dancing with the stars isnt calling me yet. Reporter yes, a singing portion. Marshal will probably have to wait on that call from american idol, as well. Farther south, the same idea. This is the chalk challenge course. The second one that weve done. The first one got washed away with the rain a few days ago. Adding math problems, piggy banks and a welcome distraction from the covid19 pandemic. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. Lets make the best of it and just know that everybody is feeling an uncertainty and its okay to feel that. Reporter chalk challenges prove it doesnt take much to aylp area.

Look for some isolated areas of drizzle along the coast and into the east bay hills during tomorrow mornings commute. You can see that low churning off the coast and even some radar returns off the coast and thats where the best chance is going to be. As we head through the future radar. You can see a slight chance off the coast and up into the high country today. There is that random shower for tomorrow, so small i didnt put a storm impact scale on it. Best chance saturday on the mountains and again sundays in the mountains and then there you go, monday we get our chance of showers.
