You see that haze, a little fog in parts of the bay area. Be careful as you head out the door. I was going to say i had some on the drive to work past the san jose airport. I assume thats going to burn off. Eventually. It will take a few hours, up until 8 00 a dense fog advisory continues. The morning drive for most of us heading up and out the door at this hour youll be in and out of the fog. Not so bad in dublin. As you continue that drive up headed toward Castro Valley youll see another blanket of fog rolling in. Well see our temperatures starting out in the mid50s this morning, and then staying steady throughout much of the morning into the afternoon, not a whole lot of changes temperature wise. We are going to see some rain moving in. Were already tracking that rain with storm ranger, our mobile doppler radar, its tracking that rain with very High Resolution right now, where we can see exactly where its raining in parts of northern Sonoma County from windsor to cloverdale, we see the yellows and reds indicates where the heaviest rain is right now and a lot of this will continue as we see the rain pushing on in, moving from west to east, so throughout the morning, were going to see this moving in, and then gradually sinking to the south. So by this evening, were going to see some bouts of some light to moderate rain moving in and so we go into early this afternoon, the evening commute looks pretty soggy for most of us, going into 6 00 to 7 00, still some waves of rain coming in and then through tonight as well. During the overnight hours well still see some rain moving through and by tomorrow morning were starting to see most areas drying out, but there still will be some spotty rain moving through that could move through San Francisco and down the peninsula, as we go into tomorrow evening. As we look at how much rain were going to see, most of us about a tenth to a quarter of an inch. Getting dressed this morning, you have to keep the umbrella somewhere close by and also be comfortable with pants that dry out more easily if you get caught in that rain. The rain chances dry up after the next 24 hours and then well have a break here, going into the rest of the weekend, and early next week. There will be some more rain on the way next wednesday and thursday. Mike, that widespread fog is the issue for drivers. Thats right but kari even though it might be tough to see in spots you said we have to wear pants. Keep that in mind. South bay sometimes we dont see any fog, clear skies over the rest of the bay.

Now were showing a smooth easy drive through the rest of Contra Costa County and no real backup at the bay bridge. We just have your typical morning commute. The north bay will be tough to see, a quarter mile visibility, getting from the richmond side you see the glow again, the fog is the major factor so give yourself a little extra time even though its pretty clear right now.
