Temperatures in the low 30s in san ramon, a little frost in the valley there, as well as the delta, santa rosa is at 32, a little fog to the north bay, but low 40s in oakland.

As we look towards the rest of the day, were looking at numbers rebounding quite nicely within a narrow range of low to mid60s for most of you, with high clouds increasing in the north bay. West winds will pick up as well along the coast, but otherwise its a quiet sunday afternoon. Well get into more sunshine for your monday, temperatures fluctuating a bit here and there, and well pinpoint that forecast for the holiday and beyond coming up. Liz . Lisa, thank you. We begin with the worsening coronavirus emergency the state and country setting new case records by the day. The u. S. H
