A lot of people probably wondering, hey, whats it going to feel like tomorrow for an event like that . Probably want a jacket with the way the wind is picking up for the afternoon, but dry . Yeah, you dont need an umbrella. And thats a rare feat for a weekend forecast, right . The way the year has gone, we got some dry conditions, but wind will be a story again tomorrow. Could have those wind gusts 20 to 40mph. And youll certainly notice that around the coast near San Francisco right now weve got 54 degrees breezy conditions at times, wind still out of the west at about 15 to 20mph, taking you into walnut creek, 57 degrees High Temperature earlier today. Pretty nice. Up to 73 degrees. Close to the average for this time of year. And san jose right now 57 degrees under those clear skies. So tomorrow the headline will still be that blustery finish to the weekend. Then eventually less wind and more warming as we go through tuesday, wednesday and thursday. This should be the warmest days of the week. A few spots could even get close to the 80s, and youll be seeing a little bit of that on the 7day forecast at the bottom of the screen right now, we do have a weather system that is tracking inland that will be partially respond able for the ramping up of the wind during the day tomorrow as you wake up tomorrow morning, some areas of coastal drizzle, patchy low clouds around the south bay and a few high clouds. Also notice maybe a few isolated showers up along the coast there near mendocino county, but nothing down into the bay area for your sunday. Now watch these wind speeds as we move forward from about mid afternoon to evening. As these areas of red start to show up along the coast there, marin county around Half Moon Bay over to San Francisco could get those gusts up to 30 to 40mph. And also pretty breezy as well around the east bay hills and down to the south bay. So some wind to deal with on your sunday. Cool start to. Well have 40s and 50s to begin the day. Dress in layers back into the 60s and low 70s. By the afternoon again near low 70s for tomorrow around san jose, 65 for San Francisco, 68. In oakland, mid 70s inland around those interior east bay valleys and eventually wind speeds do start to come down monday to tuesday. This should be the window of opportunity where the temperatures come up a little bit low to mid 70s around san jose and morgan hill, and by wednesday, as we move forward now into may, look at that close to 80 degrees around fairfield north bay. Also comfortably warm right there mid to upper 70s upper 70s into san jose wednesday and thursday. Likely to be the warmest days of the week. Then, as we head towards next weekend, stay tuned. Well see some cooling, some showers there could be lurking to the north as we head towards saturday and sunday, and that will lead to a bit of a downer trend of temperatures in the 7day forecast. As you see, San Francisco briefly climbing into the upper 60s midweek. Similar trend for inland areas as a few spots could be close to 80 wednesday. And then we cool down as we head officially into may, with some low 70s into next weekend. Yeah, may here it is. Just about here. All right rob, thanks a lot Anthony Flores here. Now with the story of a late inning effort effort by the giants. Thats right. The giants played an extra inning thriller tonight at oracle park with a 10th inning home run by jorge soler. Be the spark. They need to rally for victory tonight against the pirates. Stick around to find out. I think terry gave it away. The scores right there, ortiz neck. But next. Stop. You got it .

How we get there matters. Get exceptional offers at your local audi dealer. High drive to left and you can forget about it. Yeah, you can forget about it. Jorge soler with a two run homer in the bottom of the 10th. But thats as close as the giants would get. The pirates win it four three, in extra innings. All right. The as also lose seven. Nothing at baltimore. Now the nfl draft is over. But the best move the 40 niners made. Maybe the one they didnt make this weekend. Brandon aiyuk and deebo samuel are still on the team. The niners made five picks on day three. Overall. They selected eight players. Lets see. They picked a receiver, a safety, running back, offensive lineman and linebacker. The challenge for the niners figuring out if players are needed now or later. You know, being close like we were last year, feeling were going to have a chance to at least have an opportunity to try to do Something Like that again. You want to think always what helps us now, but then you get to that spot and there always isnt that answer right then. And so do you go with what kind of helps us now or what helps us more in the future. And so youre just constantly weighing that, whether its the draft, whether thats free agency. All right. On the pitch. Earthquakes in nashville down a goal in the second half. Jack skaane scores his first goal of the season. The match ends in a11 draw. But heres the positive for the quakes. It ends their ten game road regular season losing streak that dates back to last year. Bay fc, on the road in san diego to take on wave fc down a goal to start the second half. Aziza ocholla, right place, right time. She scores on the rebound that ties the match, but san diego would answer with a late goal wave. Fc beats bay fc by the final of 2 to 1. How about this . Toe is returning to the 40 niners . Well sort of. Today the team signed receiver tariq owens to an undrafted free agent deal. He is the son of hall of Famer Terrell owens. Thats a look at sports rookie minicamp norman, bad news. I never graduated from med school. What . But the good news is.

The event brings together the president , many journalists, a few celebrities and a featured comedian. This year, snls colin jost was the main entertainment, poking fun at president biden, former President Donald Trump and members of the press. Of course, sometimes he managed to make digs at all three in the same joke. And i would like to point out, its after 10 p. M, sleepy joe is still awake. While donald trump has spent the past week falling asleep in court every morning, though, fox news said he was just being antiwoke. President himself gave a speech as well, cracking jokes, some at his own expense. Most were aimed at his rival, donald trump, and he turned serious at the end of the speech, commending journalists for the Vital Public Service they perform. He also thanked jost, who returns to saturday night live next week. The all new show will feature dua lipa doing double duty as host and musical guest. And if youre thinking about doing something tomorrow, youre in luck. Yeah, pretty nice outside. A little windy though. Youll notice that during the afternoon then less wind and more warming as we head towards middle part of the week. Last weekend of april. Thats wild. Yes it is. Here comes may. All right.
