Up until about midnight, the clouds will be moving out. The wind will continue to flow briskly onshore. Well have clear skies and breezy and Cool Conditions in the evening hours. Overnight lows will be mainly in the mid 40s right around the bay shoreline. Inland areas low to mid 40s and farther north. It will be actually quite chilly. We dont have any frost advisories in effect, but well see lows of 36 at lakeport, 39 at santa rosa, 40 at napa. So itll be pretty chilly during the overnight hours. Highs tomorrow is 61. San francisco mid 60s. Right around the bay shoreline 64 6566 degrees up in the north bay, nearly 70 at santa rosa tomorrow. Close to 70 over at antioch. Fairfield will probably hit 70 tomorrow. Down at san jose, a high of 68, likely tomorrow. Now, lets skip ahead to wednesday and take a look at that warm up coming our way. Well see inland highs in the low 80s on wednesday. Upper 70s around the bay. Thursday even higher mid 80s mid to upper 80s inland up to about 80 8182 around the bay shoreline. We are likely to see a couple of locations hit 90 degrees on friday. Its going to be that warm inland and well see low to mid 80s around the bay shoreline. So heres the accuweather seven day forecast.
