mainly in the north part of the state right now. live doppler 7 showing you that fog right up along the coastline spilling into san francisco at this hour. the air quality currently when we take a look at those pm 2.5 levels, that particulate matter in our atmosphere, we've been fluctuating between moderate, which is the yellow colors, from napa to san francisco to redwood city, into that unhealthy for sensitive groups or poor category, that orange color from concord to pleasanton to san jose. now, air quality today is not the worst it has been since the fires have started, but there have been times hour by hour as the air quality fluctuates that you can smell smoke and we'll continue to have this air quality issue tomorrow as well. so the next two days we continue to have a spare the air day in effect today and tomorrow. on average the air quality will remain poor for much of the area on sunday, but by monday we'll see a very slight shift in our winds. that's going to help to alleviate some of the smoke in our atmosphere, so we should have a little bit better of a day, slightly better on monday with air quality more in the moderate range for the majority of your day. the exploratorium camera right now, a live look showing you that fog has settled over the skyline in san francisco. numbers right now with an onshore wind, it is pretty cool along the coast. we're down to 59 in the city. temperatures topped out in the 80s. it's 82 in brentwood, the same in cloverdale. 68 in palo alto, 69 in santa rosa and oakland at 65 degrees. so live doppler 7 along with satellite, the story we're tracking, low pressure off our coastline right now will keep the marine layer intact overnight tonight but that area of low pressure, the way the winds circulate counterclockwise will continue to keep smoke in the bay area. overnight tonight we'll see that fog move in from the coast and spill around the bay shoreline. numbers mainly in the mid-50s. future weather, first thing tomorrow morning when we have a marine layer like we'll have tomorrow morning when the fog is pretty expansive, it can track smoke near the surface. you probably noticed in the morning you can smell the smoke a little bit more than you can in the afternoon and that's what we expect with some of the worst air quality coming tomorrow morning and gradually improving in the afternoon as the fog rose and a little bit of a wind picks up. so tomorrow highs, 60s, 70s around the bay shoreline. our warmest spots in the 80s, if not hitting 90 degrees, so pretty average for this time of the year. here's the accuweather seven-day forecast, spare the air tomorrow. we'll see a warming trend hit us with temperatures on tuesday in the 80s and 90s. and then we'll fluctuate in the mid to low 90s over the next seven days with saturday, that summer spread heading our way once again. what a difference a couple of weeks makes. the last time the a's and astros met, there was a bench-clearing brawl.
