It is rough going out there. You know t to this time of year. A look outside, you can see sfo in the distance and you see the raindrops on camera. Having about a 39 minute delay for arriving flights. So far so good, you see clouds making it difficult. 45 degrees, 47 in San Francisco , 46 in livermore and 45 in san jose. We certainly have some showers. This is what we are looking at now. The north bay has cleared, all you go you see scattered showers rolling through. This is where the action is, down in san jose and morgan hill. That is where they see some showers.
