Remember yesterday it was pretty cool. These numbers will be eclipsed by tomorrows temperatures by a good five to 8 degrees. Its going to warm up pretty significantly. All the action is well to the north up around vancouver and north into the elusian island chain. Thats where the inclement weather is. Were way down here away from it as High Pressure pushes everything well inland. We are looking at temperatures 81 degrees up there toward the fairfield area. And fire danger always a concern this time of year. Here we go as we head into the next 48 hours or so. Fire danger becomes a big deal. Tomorrow mornings forecast theres no fog along the coast right. So with no fog you know those coastal areas are going to warm up. Temperatures inland are warming up as well. See the reds, those are 90s. Low 90s tomorrow and by wednesday or by thursday and friday these reds are going to be filtering in pretty much all around the bay. Keep an eye on that. Air is going to be sinking.

Right now it looks as though were going to stay below warning criteria. Well watch all that for you. Right now there are no advisories for fire. But we know when temperatures go up like this. This time of year, and as i mentioned earlier, in the 5 00 hour, that you know this is, we havent seen a drought like this in a recorded history in the bay area. And in Northern California and in california. So any time you get a fire event which is typical for this time of year but then you stick on that drought, its a big deal. So well pay close attention to it. I think that fire up there in the king fire up there in the foothills got lucked out. Got rained out last week.
