But right now it looks very very impressive. The winds, fairly light right now just a general breeze around the bay area but watch what happens as we take you through the weekend now as those winds by tomorrow morning, not bad just a gentle breeze early on so not a bad start your weekend by tomorrow afternoon, the winds do begin to pick up but you notice the direction that is out of a westerly direction that brings that nice moist air off the ocean so fire danger running fairly low that all begins to as we get in towards sunday afternoon.

Gusts will be near 60 and 70 over the ridges. And at the lower elevations well see some very breezy winds to gusty, up to 50 miles an hour. Relative humidity, 5 to 15 , thats tomorrow. Right now were at 52 in danville, 50 in pleasant hill. 53 in concord. Fog in the north bay with upper 40s. Its a chillier morning out there and the relative humidity is back with us this morning. Nine degrees cooler in Half Moon Bay, two to three degrees cooler in the north bay. And the visibility anywhere from a quarter mile to half mile from napa to santa rosa. Not much in terms of fog. Well have partly cloudy skies today. And temperatures will stay on the cool side, near seasonable levels, mid60s around noontime around the bay and inland. 50s at the coast, by the afternoon, partly cloudy skies, still with low 70s inland, upper 60s around the bay and were looking at that sunset at 6 19.

And we could see some of those gusts over 70 miles an hour, over the ridges, so the relative humidity drops anywhere from 5 to 15 and this could allow fires to ignite and spread rapidly. Right now were at 49 in mountain view, 54 in the los altos hills. 44 in napa. 24hour temperature thing, anywhere from two to five degrees colder this morning. Certainly feeling like fall and the fog has spread from napa to novato at a quarter mile visibility, three quarters of a mile in santa rosa. Partly cloudy around the bay, along the coast, sunny inland. Low 70s there. Bayside, upper 60s around fremont, only in the 50s at the coast and then things change rapidly by tomorrow. Ill be back with the timeline of the winds and the dry air in a few minutes. Liz . Lis
Internally you have Police Unions that are not necessarily for reform and in some cities they are totally against it. Reporter john burris said piecemeal reform has too many opponents and too many limitations. He said moving this conversation forward take something on a larger scale.

I think we do need a look at Police Reform on a national level. These one offs in each state is useful but i think not until we make this a National Issue just like this pandemic. We lead the world in Police Shootings of unarmed civilians. We should want to change that image. Eve
