Reporterit has been breezy along the coast all day long. But despite that were still seeing mostly blue skies throughout the bay area, but along our coastline specifically along bodega bay, were seeing wind speeds anywhere up to around 40 miles per mph gusting up to 40 so just take it slow out there, especially on those coastal roads in our inland areas, though its not nearly as bad were seeing light winds all throughout the east bay down into the Santa Clara Valley lasting into the evening hours tonight, but still close to those coastal areas, even Half Moon Bay and pacifica. Dealing with some gusty conditions just around dinnertime. Other than that, though, in the big weather story for us is the cold front thats moving in as we head into this weekend, and this 1 comes in from the gulf of alaska, so its bringing in cold, dense air along with all that rain and windy conditions. Its a winter like storm considering the fact that its so chilly, its going to bring in some snow up into the sierra to so watch this future cast is such a great tool in a day like today, especially as we head into this weekend because as we advance the clock we noticed those partly cloudy skies becoming a lot more dense into friday evening just ahead of that 1st cold front band of rain, sweeping in like a windshield wiper, starting up in the north bay around 6 a. M. On saturday by 9 00 am now its starting to Impact Communities anywhere from San Francisco with light to moderate rain stretching all the way up into the sierra in this storm will continue to sweep to the south down into the Santa Clara Valley by around 2 00. Whats interesting about this storm, though . Unlike all the past areas of low pressure that moved their way in, were not really seeing too much on the bay. Back, and its a lot drier this time. So once that initial band of rain moves through were kind of left drier conditions heading into saturday evening. And by sunday, were talking about sunshine, so in total, were going to see roughly about an inch of rain throughout the bay area is going to be a pretty impressive storm that happens just like that, but other than that, were also talking about temperatures to on saturday because its going to be a chilly day for us 50s in the forecast 60s in the forecast way, different from what we have today were talking about 80s off into the east bay up into the north bay we go. Were having 70s in the forecast this afternoon down into the Santa Clara Valley and very similar trend with those light winds. We just talked about taking a look at the next 7 days saturday. Is really just the anomaly little little bit of rain and then suddenly, sunshine on the back end with sunnier skies all throughout next week, and a nice warm up into the upper 70s as well.
