Kind of a weird february wish it would rain or i definitely thats the number one question im being asked what is it going rain and i mean im just unfortunately looking at the models and we just have this big dome of High Pressure so all our storms are just jumping right up and over us and lets take a look at the latest Drought Monitor map because you could see more than half of the state of california is now under abnormally dry conditions or moderate Drought Conditions out there right now specifically those of you. In the central coast, but we are noticing that drought extending into the north bay out there right now and lets take a look at what were tracking as far as rain estimates go because last rain that we saw in downtown San Francisco was back at the end of january so more than 20 days and the last driest february for downtown San Francisco and we got no measurable rain was back in 1864 and so far we could actually hit that mark and this year as well tying that record and we this is going to be a concern for us here in the bay area because it may actually extend and prolong our fire season where it could have an early start and a later end date so something were going to keep an eye on here from the kron 4 Weather Center Storm Tracker 4 very dry conditions tracking that then layer of cloud cover and our next storm out in the pacific but future cast is going to show most of the rain which isnt going to be much is going to be to our south and east so we could see some light rain trying to make its way into the south bay maybe even into parts of the east bay hills but overall looking like a very dry outlook for this weekends storm so were going to remain dry live look outside from downtown San Francisco noticing that then layer of high clouds but warmer air mass double digit warming right now for Half Moon Bay in the low 50s were seeing widespread low to mid and upper 50s even for those of you in the east bay shoreline and overnight lows tonight will remain in the mid to upper 40s and daytime highs tomorrow 5 to 15 degrees above average than a warming and drying trend continues even as we wrap up this work weekend this weekend as you can see slightly cooling down but still going to remain above average and then warming up once again. Later next week with no rain at least for the next 7 days going to keep back to thank bree said take a look at this that was a saying dance like no one is watching. Well maybe this woman thought she was escaping from prison with no one watching but everybody was watching on security cameras and then just kind of pops out of the ceiling. Yeah, lets just should make it very far Mike Campbell shows us the video of her jail break blunder. Jessica boomer shine stood on the scene attached to this kiosk for several minutes staring at the ceiling then stepped down she would then drag a chair over apparently for more stable footing she waits for a while with no one paying attention and then climbs up on top of the monitor a brief 32nd pause then while she presumably move the ceiling tile out of the way and then with other inmates now watching closely climbs up and out of sight the bid for freedom ends fast. 15 seconds later, the first debris falls and Corrections Officers come into sight. One watch pass just seconds before the feeling completely gives way and boomer shine drops back through more officers run over to grab her leg and she loses her grip. Luckily landing partially on a trash can to avoid slamming her head on the tile floor the illfated escape believes plummer shine dazed ceos amazed and ductwork and wires exposed to hanging from the ceiling boom in china been arrested a few days before when my Husband Police identified her and billy joe farah as the people have befriended an 85 yearold man at this casino. Im told them im as birdman she was broke and homeless and he invited her to his house to give her food. She came back the next day with farrah and they broke in and ransacked the place and assaulted the 85 year old saying a lot of countries about his head next. So were injuries enough to hospitalized. The victim was recovering back at home mother time boomer shine fell back to the ceiling during her attempted climb to freedom. Now the 42 yearold is facing new charges for escape and destruction of property or on top of the targeting of the 85 yearold and so she did appear in court this week didnt spare his time in person action with no efforts to escape as Mike Campbell reporting for us tonight, the 2 extra charges boomer shine now faces theyre on top of the other charges she already faces those include kidnapping felonious assault aggravated burglary aggravated robbery and grand theft.
