bay as well as redwood city. san francisco a little wind for you. you're still up in the 40s. you'd have to make it down to i think 37 to tie a record. so still a little warmth hanging on here but overall we'll see numbers continue to drop throughout the next two hours. so we could see those low 20s or mid-20s which would shatter the north bay record. you can see in oakland it was 34, the old record, but that's going to go down in the history books. sfo would have to come down another 6 degrees or so. looking at record lows around the bay. sunny and warmer today on the average of about 5, 6 degrees of warming and more rain comes our way next week. only a slight chance of showers coming in tomorrow. high pressure still in control of our weather today. we'll see the fair skies so it will feel pretty good out there compared to yesterday's 40s and that brisk wind. but we do have a couple of systems lined up in the pacific. the first one is to the north of us and that will just bring us some overriding precipitation for tomorrow for our north bay communities. elsewhere we're looking at probably late tuesday into wednesday before we see some significant rain. this 32 today in the northern sierra, 47 in yosemite with mid-50s from fresno to monterey, 59 los angeles. definitely a cool day there. and temperatures through the evening will be dropping into the 40s. so it will be a

san leandro, fremont today. in our valleys look for numbers in the mid-50s today. so it will be a pretty nice afternoon. enjoy it because much of the week coming up will be cloudier and featuring a
