Seasonnial for the weekend and increasing winds through late tomorrow. Heres a look at radar hd. We will see plenty of sunshine, but it will be a little bit on the coop side. 60s for most, maybe 70 in the inland valley. I widen the view. High pressure in control for the weekend. A weak weather system dropping down tomorrow will allow for a few sierra showers. While we are on the eastern side of this system, we will look for those breezy winds. I sued say western side. It looks calm out there. You see the sun. 50 san jose, 51 mountain view, 49 morgan hill and half moon way. A nice looking view from the tower camera where we have the sun out there already. Low 40s novato and napa. 42 by the delta, 44 santa rosas and upper 40s cop cord and livermore. Some of the warmer locations here. What a nice day yesterday with the rainfall. All the cloud cover. We were warmer yesterday so this morning we are 11 degrees cooler. Mountain view and san jose. 16 degrees cooler novato with 5 to 9 degrees cooler around San Francisco and oakland. Ice crystals on the lens here in the Sierra Nevada where they had snow. Temperatures in the 40s there today. More snow showers perhaps tomorrow. And also in late wednesday. So cooler conditions this morning. Partly cloudy skies today. That still means a good deal of sunshine. Turning windy late tomorrow as the system drops to the east of us. So we will look for a strong rip currents today. The large breakers. About ten foot wave heights right now. Still looking pretty dangerous like usual here. Do take care hear if you are headed out to the coast. So we are looking at upper 60s today. San jose average highs low 70s. The warmer locations should be san jose but just shy of the averages around the bay throughout much of the work week and then we warm up next weekend. But we still have a weak weather system to come visit us by wednesday and that is looking like it could bring measurable rain. As we put this in motion, 7 00 wednesday morning, looking at some showers perhaps. And then right on through the midday hour. Could see a little bit of wet weather. So around the bay today, look for partly to mostly sunny conditions. Upper 60s for palo alto. 70 morgan hill. Mid60s oakland. 65 richmond, and for the giants game this evening look for numbers in the low 60s. Sun setting 7 53 and dropping through the upper 50s. The accuweather sevenday forecast. Increasing winds tomorroand sunny and breezy throughout the early part of the week with average temperatures and maybe more rain next wednesday and slightly warmer into the end of the work week.

California is still under a statewide order to save water so why are some bay area agencies now blasting water out of their fire hydrants . It may look wasteful, but its actually keeping our Drinking Water clean. Heres abc7 news anchor ama daetz. They are flushing their waterpipes releasing 1,000 gallons a minute on to the street. It used to be automatic. Fire hydrants end up and left to run. Highvelocity water scours the pipe and clearing out sediment and chemicals so they dont end up in your Drinking Water. When the drought hit many communities stopped to change to save water, but that is beginning to change. We are looking at a full reservoir, which we are happy and pleased about. Its lapping over the top of our boards on the spillway, and thats about as much water as we can store here. It provides about 40 of calistogas water. Now that its full, water officials decided its time to clean the pipes. Crews let the water at each hydrant run until its clear. This one took nine minutes. It is clearing up a lot faster than we expected. They also test the hydrants to make sure they are ready for an emergency. We have 170plus fire hydrants to do. So it will take a few months. This process is also happening in other bay area communities. But not all reservoirs are full and the Sierra Snowpack is still below normal. Not every agency is doing the same thing. Here in San Francisco and in the east bay mud service area, officials tell us they are considering flushing some hydrants for routine maintenance but for now they say they are still only doing it when absolutely necessary. In the south bay the San Jose Water Company is one of the first to use a new truckbased flushing system that saves water. This Company Video shows out the truck cop next to hydrants and flushes the pipes by Running Water through a filter so very. ÷ little water ends up on the street. San joses system costs half a Million Dollars and many districts dont have the money. So for now expect most agencies to keep flushing their pipes the oldfashioned way. And that was abc7 news anchor ama daetz reporting. Once again, water Officials Say that even if you see water flushing out of the hydrants, dont assume the drought is over. The state water board is expected to decide next month whether to ease up on current restrictions. Coming up, the annual cesar chavez festival and parade in San Francisco.
