This is just one of the spots that the pigs have dug up and the general manager says that the pigs they will have to dig up all the grass damaged by the pigs looking for grub, scrape it all away and recede it and then wait for it to grow and that isnt even the worse of it. Not far from where im standing, the pig dug up half the hillside and forced Club Management to put a fence around the entire green fixing the green is really expensive. The club also treated the grass to eliminate the grubs that they come looking for. They sealed one of the routes the pigs take from the quick silver mountains on to the course in search of water and food. They even put staff on the course overnight to shoo the pigs away, but the pigs have been coming for a month and in the last week they have gotten more disruptive. The pigs are determined, theyre aggressive and theyre stubborn and theyre very smart. With a keen sense of smell coming back to an area they want to feed.

A general manager says that hes not only concerned about the damage to the property, some of which will be covered by insurance. He said hes also concerned about his members that come out to walk or golf early in the day or stay late to walk the dog later in the afternoon when the pigs are most likely active. Also now with halloween around the corner, there is a good possibility that the kids and the pigs will find themselves on the street at the same time and the pigs, when they feel threatened, they can be aggressive.

Fog pretty thick this morning and seems to be moving back in already. Lets check in with jeff ranieri. Pretty dangerous out there on the roadways especially throughout the north and east bay. We had fog in the coastline and widespread fog continues at this hour and, of course, that ground fog that really limited visibility down to several hundred feet in some cases. All in all, with that onshore flow put together with that fog that stuck around to the noon hour, we did have near recordsetting chill. 57 degrees in richmond, thats it. Thats all we had for the afternoon high. Your average 71 this time of year. That was good enough to tie our old record back in history. Even at the coastline, that 57 degrees, well, it did seem cool. It was a lot colder than we should be this time of the year. Now, we do have our dense fog advisory that continues tomorrow morning right around the north bay for the lower elevations and napa snow and santa rosa and nevada where visibility cut down to a quarter mile and from south San Francisco to stanford and oakland down to fremont and on the northern fringes of san jose at this point. Again, commuters, what you should know tomorrow morning when youre out on the roadways, plan some extra time because that fog, again, can cut down that visibility very quickly. As we get a look at that thursday forecast overall, once we get over the cloud cover, looks like by 11 xlk a. M. , it will start to break, yet again. Temperatures on the cooler side. Low 60s by the bay and for interior valleys upper 60s. Lets bring you outside to the fog storm in San Francisco. We actually had to adjust this camera for tonight because the clouds are coming in so thick. So, do expect areas of drizzle across the golden gate, also the bay bridge and at the immediate coastline. Down to the south, we did clear out with some sun for several hours. But remains hazy. The dew points in the lower atmosphere remain in the upper 40s to low 50s and thats going to be good enough to set off more ground fog again throughout parts of the south bay and the bay, as we mentioned. Lets take you back here into the forecast. You can see here on the fog factor, all counties highlighted dealing with north, east, south bay off the peninsula. Then another day by the afternoon. Well see plenty of clearing here throughout the interior valleys, but up against the coastline its not going to clear at all. Youre headed anywhere there, bring the jackets, bring the layers, its going to stay cool for you. As we take you into the forecast for tomorrow morning, well see most temperatures here in the 40s throughout parts of the north bay and as we transition through the east bay, 48 in livermore and 54 in los gatos. Overall daytime highs expected to top out tomorrow generally near our averages. Awesome in the south bay. 75 in san jose and 72 in palo alto and 76 in morgan hill. Doesnt look hot with the onshore flow staying with us. 80 in dublin and 79 in pleasanton and San Francisco 64 and up towards sonoma 72 and napa expecting 75. Tracking the system for this weekend. At this point, it looks like that system will stay off shore and move to the south. So no rainfall in that sevenday forecast. You can see its dry all the way throughout this upcoming weekend. Temperatures near 80 inland and 60s at our coastline. Again, just watch out tomorrow morning for that low areas of fog that will stay with us. Thanks, jeff. Youre welcome. What Prince George was celebrating today. The new research that says changes in your diet could prevent memory problems later in life. Livermore police want you to take a good look at this picture.

One was seen in the hills and another spotted in woodside last night. Highway 35. Emergency services say if you encounter a Mountain Lion make noise and make yourself look as big as possible. Do not run. That could make the animal chase you. Also try not to hike at dawn or dusk when the animals are usually out. New research from germany indicates that people with higher blood sugar levels may have increased risks for memory problems. The german doctor said healthy adults with no history of diabetes or prediabetes. Participants had blood sugar level did not perform as well as those with lower sugar levels. Brain scans those with higher blood sugar also had smaller volume in the hip compitous area of the brain. Experts thaurs are lowering blood sugar levels could prevent memory levels later in life. A fullterm pregnancy. Used to be a baby was considered at term when delivered between 37 and 42 weeks. Now, experts are narrowing that window saying fullterm is now from 39 to 41 weeks. Doctors want to cut down on the number of scheduled csections and inductions before 39 weeks. Woman who spontaneously go into labor at 37 or 38 weeks shouldnt panic. They tend to be healthier than those who are delivered healthy by choice. Speaking of babies. The first video of Prince George since his birth, when we return. He is cute. A break with royal tradition, the christening of Prince George took place inside a chapel at st. James palace instead of Buckingham Palace. Thenbaby prince carried by his father, Prince William into the chapel. George who is now 3 months old wore an elaborate lace and satin gown. The short, private service was attended by only 22 guests, mostly family. He has seven godparents, all Close Friends and some family. This is the first time the public got to see Prince George since his introduction. They are a family. They are living as a family. Bringing up the child in a family unit. And i think that is wonderful. Royal christenings are usually held in the music room of Buckingham Palace but the chapel is where princess dianas body was laid before her funeral. A lot of sentimental value there. He is third in line to the british throne. Beautiful baby. So content just laying there. And the weather seemed nice in england. Yes, it was nice. But not as nice as our weather. Look at that sevenday forecast. Dense fog for tomorrow morning and clear out with afternoon sunshine and near 80 degrees for the afternoon high and low 70s by the bay and 60s at the coast. Stay dry through this weekend.
