No. I had to get the old credit card out this morning scraping the windshield. Yeah, its really cold out there in the inland valleys. Be careful if you are heading out early and bundle up. This cold air is here to stay for the next couple of days. In fact another freeze warning and fast advisory will be likely tonight. So a live look outside from our east bay camera. We have the radiational cooling. The live 7hd, he we are looking at fog in the north bay around santa rosa with halfmile visibility n the north bay not only the colder temperatures, but some of that fog. Here is where the freeze warnings are until 8 00. From the north bay, our east bay valleys, even the Santa Clara Valley where temperatures are dropping into the mid20s. After sunrise, really not until 9 00, will we see modifying the temperatures. And the frost advisory, the bay shoreline. Numbers in San Francisco are milder, but elsewhere, wow, we are continuing to drop this morning. 27 in concord, 27 in novato. Redwood city, 30 for you, as well as san jose. So with another two to three degrees of cooling, certainly it will be a very, very cold night and not much change for your monday morning. But look at San Francisco, 40 here. Tonight we will see some more wind, but it will still be really cold until the middle of the week when this cold parcel of air begins to modify as our ridge of High Pressure brings a also more wind and we see the warmer air mass. 8 degrees colder this morning in napa. 5 degrees colder in fremont and fairfield. San francisco about the same, as well as our coastline. So our highlights then, freezing temperatures this morning. Sunny days and cold nights right on through about tuesday. And then by wednesday and thursday not only will we warm up, we will see temperatures a little bit above average. By the end of the work week some 60s come into play. We have High Pressure in the eastern pacific, bringing that sunny and cold day today. And by tonight, though, we will see a little more wind in the north bay. Thats not going to help us out, though. We are still going to drop to the sub freezing levels for at least five or six levels. Again, high temperatures in the here they have. 27 right now. They broke a record yesterday at minus 9. This morning minus 10. 53 big sir, and 58 los angeles. From north to south really feeling the cold, cold air. Highs today 52 san mateo, 50 concord, as well as fremont and san rafael and richmond.

Overnight tonight once again we will look for the frost advisory for the bay shoreline and the freeze warnings in our inland valleys with 20s and lower 30s. 38 in San Francisco. Another frosty start for tomorrow and then a little milder on tuesday. More sunshine wednesday. And look those low 60s coming back into play. You are noticing, carolyn, you dont need your umbrella. I like that part. The cold is not that bad. You can certainly bundle up. San francisco is a lot milder than most of us. Yeah. Did you manage to stay up and watch a little bit of the game last night .

Mike shumann mass the highlights and the postgame reaction in this mornings sports. Good morning. I am now a believer. I had my doubts about Colin Kaepernick leading them into the playoffs with only seven nfl starts. He sets an nfl record in the process. Aaron rodgers and alex smith, 2005 number one draft choice, before the game. Fans worried about the quarterback in the finishing. Picked off by sam shields. He goes 52 yards and just like that 70 packers but the kid made up for his mistake. Third and agent from the packers 20. Takes it himself. His first postseason touchdown. Wouldnt be his last. Game tied at 7. Green bay, 22 minutes of possession only in this game but Dajuan Harris gives them the lead. 147 packers. Niners answer. Crab had a huge game. Two tds and niners led 2114. Rogers answers of. Under three minutes in the half. And james jones, and rogers 257 yards, two tds and a pick. Niners up 3 at the half. Third quarter kaepernick sets an nfl playoff record for most rushing yards by a quarterback, including this one, 66yarder. 3121 San Francisco, and they never looked back. Fourth quarter, frank frank gord they are heading to the nfc championship for the second Straight Year. They face the winner of todays seahawks and falcons game. Its a lot easier on me when other people are making plays. Our offensive line came out. They dominated up front and that makes it easy on the quarterback. Kaepernick is going to be all right. Those plays, he came to the sidelines and he was ready to go. I knew he would have a big day. A big day for us today. 200 yards rushing . Almost. Almost. There you go, its hard to lose like that. Peyton manning was having a career year with the broncos and hoping to add a second super bowl to his resume. But the highflying ravens said no more. Peyton manning an unbelievable come back after neck surgery last year. Tied at 21 year. The 90yard punt return for a touchdown in the first. Takes the kickoff return, 104 yards. First player in the nfl history to score on the kickoff return in the game. Broncos up 7. 40 seconds to go in the game. Denver up by a touchdown. Last call for the ravens. Flacco, to jones. Are you kidding me . 70 yards for the touchdown. We are tied at 35 and we head to overtime. Manning threw for three touchdowns but had three turnovers as well. Picked off here by core grant for the second time in the game. Sets it up in denver territory. Double overtime. Tucker, 47yard field goal for the win. Its good. Ravens are head today their second straight afc title game with 3835 Double Overtime victory. Seattle taking on atlanta, new england and texas and we will have those highlights at five.

On a story you see only on abc7 news, Jonathan Bloom introduces us to engineers at stanford who are hard at work on a new kind of recover. You see a hopping and a tumbling motion. In this is an early simulation in a row got that in about ten years could look like this, a titanium soccer ball covered in spikes. The stanford professor calls it a hedge hog and it could one day explore mars biggest moon. A thousand times less than the gravity we have an earth. They have wheels and wheels might not work on fobos. If you were to try to do a wheel system in low gravity, you could flip it over and completely lose control of it. So instead of rolling they are making them tumble and hop using spinning motors sealed inside. They started with this two dimensional model how it will work in mike crow gravity. If i let it go, it slowly drifts back down and thats as if this were the ground. But the next prototype will be in three dimensions. Researchers will use what is essentially a small model of the giant shipping cranes at the port of oakland to simulate little gravity. I can apply the whole system. They are work owing on a fullscale model at nassau. The tumbling and hopping on different types of surfaces. So we looked at doing that on concrete surfaces, on sandy surfaces and rocky surfaces. Hedge hogs could carry cameras and microscope, send findings back to an orbiting satellite to find out where fobos came from when whether humans can land there. The object. And it could be key to proving or disproving theories on how the universe began. It enables us to understand where we are coming from and where we are heading to. Abc7 news. Well, here in our corner of the universe, things are beyond chilly. Yeah, awfully frosty out there with plenty of 20s in the north and east bay valleys. But downtown we have about 40 degrees.

Our meteorologist lisa argen will be along shortly with the full accuweather forecast. Theres a monthlong snake hunt underway in florida. Hundreds of amateur hunters have embarked on the 2030 python challenge. Florida wildlife officials launched the hunt to eliminate some of the 150,000 nonnative burmese pythons living in the everglades. They say such a drastic plan was necessary to keep the snakes from damaging the ecosystem too severely. We need to think outside the box and do something thats never been done before. The hunt who are captures the most snakes will receive a 1,500. 00 prize. The python challenge lasts for a month. A new technology is offering hope for an uncomfortable condition that affects an estimated 14 Million People in the country. It can take a severe toll on everything from your vision to quality of life. Heres Carolyn Johnson with the details. On a bad day, even driving can be a challenge for helen cole. The hardest part about driving is seeing the signs clearly and it adds a distinctive glare of buriness. While her normal vision is fine, the blurriness comes from a condition called dry eye. Shes forced to treat it throughout the day. From the time you get up in the morning your eyes already feel gritty, sometimes they are swollen. Definitely red and they have a burning sensation. You have a relatively low oil here. The opt tommologist said the condition is often caused by a lack of oil which allows the eyes natural shape pour to evaporate. He is going to treat it with a new technology called bipiflow. First they perform a laser scan of her eyes to measure the amount and quality of the oil, as well as her natural pattern of blinking. That represents the blinks. After analyzing the data, the doctor places two small cups directly on to helens eyes. They are designed to reach the oil glands beneath her eyelids. It warms the eye to about jacuzzi temperature. Not hot, but comfortable. It melts the oils and using a Computer Program it applies general tell pressure and expresses the abnormal oils from the glands. The procedure takes about twelve minutes and the mild heat does not typically cause any discomfort. Once the glands are cleared the eyes again producing oil and moisture. Diana had the procedure earlier this year. I would say within four days or so i could tell that my eyes did not seem as dry or as uncomfortable. The doctor said in severe case it is can take eight to ten weeks to experience relief, but the improvement often lasts several years. I think the whole tech following from beginning to end is revolutionary. And for patients like helen it offers the hope of making it through the day without concentrating on taking care of her eyes. A home run would be to, actually, have about totally go away, but for now i would just be happy with having good days. And carolyn says that an average treatment costs 1600 or rather 1,800 and it is not covered by insurance right now. However, dr. Mandell points out the improvement can improve expenses ranging from eye drop prescriptions to regular eye appointments. We bundle up in the bay area and it feels like spring on the east coast.

But in between now and then, its cold High Pressure with the origin of the air mass up in alaska. We are looking at the lack of wind and the lower dewpoints, allowing for those cold temperatures in the valleys as the old colder air drains to the valleys. 27 in tahoe, 61 sacramento.
