Might not be the case through the weekend. Through the weekend well see the weather today carry over with one moredy. But sunday a big change. Were seeing a big change in terms of wind, heavy rain at times and for the sierra we think a lot of snow getting into sunday night. Right now speaking of christmas in the park look at that. 68 degrees in san jose. Dont see temperatures that mild at this hour this late in november. There you go around the santa clara valley. If you are thinking of heading out to the livermore outline. 580 eastbound, the sea of taillights sheing the real story there. But at least the weather is dry and warm. 69 degrees currently in dublin 64 in sand rafael and San Francisco. Looking to the west 63 degrees with maybe some patches of fog setting up for tomorrow morning. No worries aboutny rain bay areawide as we start the we could. Changing as the sunday forecasts comes in. Midseventies in the forecast around san jose upper 70s possible south of downtown. Trivalley again tomorrow before the clouds thicken up should see temperatures in the sefrts. Upper 60s around peninsula. San francisco one moredy of upper 60s. North bay mostly cloudy by the evening we see a chance of the rain advancing southward. For tonight any chances of showers to the north of santa rosa. And it looks like almost all of the day saturday from morning to evening and into night stays dry pl by 3 00 a. M. Sunday watch the intense line of rain march southward from 3 00 a. M. To 11 00 a. M. Sunday. Thats the main impact of the weekend storm. Then into the afternoon we see scattered showers. But dont let the guard down. 4 00 even overnight sunday we see bands of showers come threw. Which may briefly include a slit chance of thunder. We have cold air alost coming in. Snow in the sierra. Still active maybe into beginning of monsieur morning commute. Heading through the day monday skis clear and we transition to dryer weather. Rainfall expectations for the valleys, again, higher for the north bay through 5 00 p. M. Sunday. Then you add in the Early Morning showers on monday. The bay area rainfall average now looks to be pretty close to a half irj out of the storm some of the coastal hills see one to two inches. Once this system clears well see dry weather taking shape tuesday, wednesday abthursday and right now maybe next friday. And next weekend another storm arriving midway through the weekend. So the 7day forecast taking shape with a mild tai tomorrow. Sunday though especially during the morning wind and rain across the bay area. See a half inch or so more for most of the bay area process but coastal mountains could get an inch or two out of this. Considering how nice and warm the weather has been the last few day thats a big change both here in in the sierra zbloonds sunday would be the best day to go out shopping in an outdoor mall. People will not want to be in the rain. Which works. And i think that storm could do that. Its really making it tough to be outside. Nobody steal my idea. Great. Thank you very much.
