Fog this morning pushing into San Francisco just the top of the Sales Force Tower in the distance there, and also see some lights from the bay bridge there somewhere down there in that blanket of fog that has moved in across the bay. This onshore breeze has really helped to keep air quality near the coast on the cleaner side now we do have spots pockets where quality is in the very puerto worst category and that includes portions of Sonoma County and then especially on over into napa county the east bay also looking at it impact from range of moderate to pour conditions, zooming in on the north bay though we do have some of that worst of air quality as you know up in northern portions of napa county closer itself. To where the glass fire is still burning this morning now with relatively light winds. We dont have a whole lot of a transport system said pick up the smoke can get it out of the region, so it is going to gradually settle into the bay over the next few days this is why we do have spare the air alerts in effect for the rest of your work week.
