So were going to jay dave spahr was hanging out and his spawn resort. Hi dave. I knew i some help that distance away but still yes and good morning to you good morning. Everybody weve been tracking this morning some showers going on in parts of the bay area still going on as we speak, but at the same time some clearing so its going to be kind of the story which you can expect later on today too. And those moments of sunda s get the energy back to the atmosphere to far off what may be an isolated shower thunder shower and potentially more snow up in the mountains like Mount Hamilton and also mount diablo so heres a look at stormtracker 4 o we stand again in a little cell headed to the east bay in the southern and down the fremont looks like so get a little closer here you can kind of get the projections here were talking the dough still some moderate showers but it will get will be brief. This will clear up in less than an hour or so and this is drifting east to southeast so Mount Hamilton might not want those are coming your way in a bit live shot from timber on how about that the golden gate off to the distance and one of the clear patches we talked about blue skies of the top of your screen there so nice to see some of that going on, but still quite cold up in the north bay, particularly this will be repeated tomorrow because were going to have not only clear skies but drier air working there. And that does mean some frost concerns to but check in at the last hour early report, we have 32 santa rosa, 37 34 for napa meanwhile, elsewhere throughout the bay mid 40s complemented by rain and lots of cloud cover we had from earlier overnight. So the general pattern you can see this low is going to hunker down with us and it will be with us again tomorrow to but it will be concentrated more to the southern end of the day in the southern end to the east bay and the peninsula north they will be drying out by that point and thats what the forecast models are telling us now look ahead. It showers and thundershowers weve got a mention for the east bay Higher Elevations and that means Santa Cruz Mountains to Cool Conditions though 50s. Now for thursday friday dry now cold still have some last minute showers for thursday in parts of the day. And then frost advisory for thursday morning in the north bay and the for the weekend so the cold system and rain returns. But its a fast mover so we might actually see some clearing on sunday. And a and early next week are lets get to whats going on for the next 48 hours here okay here comes more rain across the bay for today notice, the north bay will excuse me clear on out here. Well clear skies tonight, drier air working that allows those temperatures to fall and tumble. Santa cruz mountains shop in Mount Hamilton look at this it will be firing up again tomorrow looks like but look how things clear even up the lake tahoe and along the spine of the mountains off to the east everybody dries out as we ppapproach into the early weekend. Its temporary as we expect yet another system for this weekend coming our way all right how much rain are we getting wants more are going on here that biting. Were going to add to the rain bucket but not a lot San Francisco, not even 2 tenths of inch of rain from all of this east bay shoreline might get a brief shower from this were talking about going slow as well and the rain shadow down to san jose we had a little bit tonight again as we get into thursday afternoon evening but again amounts will remain relatively modest. So for the wins this is another part of our forecast we did and this to this afternoon. We still have a chance of rain developing south. We talked about that upper to be up here in the north day. Now the suspicions are will lose some of these winds up in the north bay for overnight because with the winds that keeps temperature supported so were going to lose the winds lose the moisture in the atmosphere right at the time we get to overnight cooling to allow those temperatures to kind of tumble on us, lets get those long range forecast here for the next 48 hours we have this cluster of showers to deal with looking good and then here comes another dose more mountain snows patches of some heavier rain with that will be quarter loss we might far off some lightning bolt without around it. We clear out for clearing skies. We have some cloud cover that gets in there, but it doesnt look to be too promising to deliver rain. But the bigger issue is with High Pressure building might be talking about some warmer temperatures hot. Alright for today, its not the case 60 of rosa upper 50s across a good piece of real estate going on for today with come in and out sunshine, pop corn, variety showers and Thunder Showers but step aside 7 day forecast here we go unsettled for the weekend i grant but early next week, lets plow into the lower 70s where hate where have faded and i mean its already spring and were waiting here. So funny some warmth coming to the bay area after its been so cold in well recently rainy which we need much and will clear out a little bit into early next week, not sure if well get any showers that system by the middle portion next week but for right now well just hang with some scattered clouds and warmer temperatures are forecast robin all right.
