A lot going in, a forecast with a chance of thunderstorms. Lets bring in our chief meteorologist, jeff ranieri. Reporter its reminiscent of what you would see in the southeast.

Reporter matt mahan told me that while he is certainly glad workers will remain on the job instead of picketing tomorrow and that there will be no disruptions to City Services, he still has a big concerns about what the ultimate cost will be to the city. I, myself will be drawing a line and not be willing to the city up or support a deal that would sign the city up for ongoing commitments that might force service cuts and even potentially layoffs a year or two down the line. Reporter so, whats next . Workers have agreed to suspend the strike for 24 hours giving the city council time to speak about the terms tomorrow. At least six councilmembers must approve the deal and then it will go back to the Union Members for approval. The strike has been averted. We have averted a strike tomorrow. More to come tomorrow pending positive outcomes, its likely there will be no strike but that is still uncertain. All City Services and facilities will be open as usual tomorrow including San Jose Animal Care Center which is full and not accepting any additional animals. The strike could have meant airport, library even island dispatchers walking off the job at 6 a. M. I asked the mayor how much of a raise the city is hoping to give the employees and he said he could not disclose that until after the close session. We will learn more about how much of a raise those employees will likely get, but for now the bottom line is there will be no strike here in san jose tomorrow.

Restaurant owners east bay wondering if they can stay in business after thieves broke into agave uptown. The thieves smashed the cameras while they robbed the safe in the back office. Agave said the robbers stole bottles of alcohol and about 10,000 in hip money. Repairs will cost upwards of 50 grand. Its affecting our business bad. We are losing a lot of money and on top of that our customers are afraid to come and dine with us. The restaurant said burglars hit neighboring businesses and they fear customers may not return because burglars are also breaking into cars. And that is such a shame. Now a look from our camera. We bring in our meteorologist, jeff ranieri. You see fog and showers . Reporter temperatures, upper 90s, humidity, did you feel that . Why go to florida. We all felt that here today. A very tropical, certainly probably had you sweating quicker than usual. Make sure to stay hydrated the next couple of days. Lets roll it into that microclimate forecast. We take a closer look at the fog and its just a little bit but that will be good enough to keep the coastline cooler, but those inland valleys will be able to bake. Look at these temperatures up to 94 in concord. Not good enough for a record, but still hot. 98 in livermore, san jose, 88. Just a little bit sluggish there as you try to get things done today with humidity. Lets show you what that humidity is creating and it is spotty areas of rain and under storms. All of this out here is actually moving away out towards the pacific so the thing we have focused on is this rogue thunderstorm that developed 40 minutes ago over mount hamilton. A couple of lightning strikes and hail. I am not seeing hail or lightning but it holds together so i am looking at rainfall headed toward livermore also right here into sunol so if you are traveling over 680 or 580 be aware of possible wet weather. Then possibly continuing into livermore just before that at 6 49. We will have the radar scanning and if we see any lightning we will bring that coverage to you. The remarkable thing about whats producing this weather pattern, we talked about it last week is this system off the coastline. This arrived in this exact position last thursday and its going to stay in just about the same spot all week long so that counterclockwise circulation will pull up the thunderstorm chances and humidity and also keep the father going. There is really nothing to carry the system away and thats why we will be under the same onagain offagain pattern. For tomorrow morning as you get the kids back to school, fog and drizzle. Thunderstorms will begin across the Central Valley with a slight chance across bay area. The best chance would be over the bay sierra. Tomorrow on the mild side so you probably wont need much of a jacket. 65, southbay. East bay, 64. San francisco, daytime highs for tomorrow get away from the bay and it will be hot. 95, morgan hill. East bay up to 99. 98, pleasanton. 79 in oakland. San francisco, 74 in downtown and for the north bay, 92 in napa. We will keep a 50 chance of under storms all the way through fridays forecast and that it cools down this weekend so that tropical air can you tomorrow. Pretty interesting.
