Confined mainly to the coastline and later in the day we see the fog pulling back to the coast and persisting along the coastline for much of the day. Left with sunny skies over the bay and inland much like today except perhaps more coastal fog. Overnight lows will be generally in the mid or mid to upper 50s.

Do not take victoza® if you have a personal or Family History of medullary thyroid cancer, multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if you are allergic to victoza® or any of its ingredients. Stop taking victoza® and call your doctor right away if you get a lump or swelling in your neck or if you develop any allergic symptoms including itching, rash, or difficulty breathing. Serious side effects may happen, including pancreatitis. So, stop taking victoza® and call your doctor right away if you have severe pain in your stomach area. Tell your doctor your medical history. Taking victoza® with a sulfonylurea or insulin may cause low blood sugar. The most common side effects are headache, nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting.

We just saw steph curry and his lovely wife heading in. He is up for three awards tonight. And well also be presenting an award. We have that to look forward to this evening. Now the espys honor great achievements in sports but it is more than just handing out championships for teams that have won titles. And tonight craig sager will be presented with the jimmy v. Perseverance award and this is really special. If you are a basketball fan, youve been watching him on telecasts for 38 years and working the side lines for turner sports. The last few years have really been a struggle. Hes been battling leukemia and this past season, he would get chemotherapy in the morning and then work the sidelines on games at night. And when sager was in the bay area recently covering the playoffs, i asked him about what the jimmy v. Award means to him. Something you cant think about it. You cant even dream about it. Jimmy v. Speech, dont ever give up is something i have on my phone right now. Ive always had it. And when im laying in the hospital looking for strength, that is one of the places i get it from. It is an honor beyond words. Think about it, if you laugh, you think, and you cry, that is a full day. That is a heck of a day. This past summer is tough in the hospital for about four months and i want to get back to the season. I was a little weak. Doctors werent sure i could do it. But i came back and i did the game and then i did the game two days later and then i kept going and i found that doing the nba games, doing my job, was something that invigorated me. Craig sagers determination to beat cancer is truly remarkable and it will be a special, special moment when he goes up on the statemege at th y eppies. Larry beil, abc 7 news. And watch the espys right here only on abc 7 at 8 00. Larry will have live reports with all of the bay area athletes on abc 7 news at 11 00.

The ruling was appealed, letting the new england quarterback play the entire season last year. But brady has one last chance and that is an appeal to the u. S. Supreme court so well see what happens next. It is time for ask finney. 7 on your sides Michael Finney is here. Michael, the first question from mike s. From San Francisco who emailed, how many times can the cable car bells ring . The operators seem to ring the bells repetitively early in the morning and late at night. Oh, mike, it doesnt sound like you like these things. I would suggest you get used to them. They are a federal landmark, so they are not going to change at all. They are going to keep having the regulation. There is a city regulation that says the operator has to ring the bell when going through an intersection, it is a safety regulation and that wont change. How many times can they ring it . As many as they want. There are no rules or regulations. So if you live near the lines, they are loud and live with it, is my advice. And michael from petaluma emailed, i received a u. S. Census form and it states i have to fill it out and that is the law. Is that true. I feel the question is invasive. Boy, they get into your business. They have a short form that isnt that bad, how many are in your household and then the long form that is absolutely remarkable and it seems like they are getting into your business. But by law you do have to fill it out. And if you dont, theyll show up at your doorstep again and again. Now by law, as i said, you have to fill it out. They could arrest you. But i checked this out a couple of years ago and that has never happened that i could find. Still, the reason you want to fill it out is your Community Gets money based on those forms. So think about being a good citizen. And melissa r. From millbrae emailed, what are Health Department regulations regarding animals in place where food is handles like restaurants and Grocery Stores . I know there are rules for service dogs but i see dogs everywhere these days and they dont appear to be working. Oh, boy, no lie. Well, dogs, service dogs are allowed everywhere. Service animals are allowed everywhere. When it comes to restaurants, a Companion Animal is not allowed to go into the restaurant but they are allowed to go into a restaurant patio as long as they are on a leash or in a carrier. Now, you see a lot of dogs and a lot of animals with the fake gear on them, they try to make them look like they are service animals.
