side of this system. temperatures on the cool side but the showers pushing on out and the atmosphere becoming more stable throughout the evening hours when the sun does set. so in terms of the rest of the weekend, we are looking for building high pressure. that's the fair weather maker and that will bring the milder days with temperatures coming up to around average. but we will still have those numbers cool at our coast. if you are planning on spending anytime at our beaches, the numbers there locally in the upper 50s. where numbers anywhere else are pretty darn cold with temperatures ranging from the upper 40s in tahoe, 73 sack nen toe, and 69 in los angeles and plenty of 60s back home with only the warmer locations of the north bay and the east bay out by the delta around 70

have with drivers and drivers aren't sure how it would be implemented. >> i'm not sure how they would measure that or enforce that or as a driver when you are driving by how you would know the distance of three feet. >> it could be an infraction which could count as a point on your driving record and the fines are expensive. >> $35 if there are no injury. $220 if there is. when you add in local and court fees, that's almost $1,000 for the most serious offense. nathaniel would welcome the three foot safety zone. >> which would be about my arm length from here to fingertips. three feet
