Coming up. Right now about all of us are good or moderate from the north bay down to the monterey bay. So lets talk about the temperatures. A little bit of drizzle in the east bay hills. And temperatures are a little milder, mid50s to low 60s. Well be in the 60s and 70s at noon. Well stay in the 60s at coast, but 75 to 83. And that is really comfortable thanks to the haze out there, it is blocking out the strong sunshine and keeping us from reaching our potential warmth during the day.

The flex look is a warning to stop using quite so much power between 3 and 9 pm when it is the hottest. The doctor of uc berkeley says the margins are slim and ask, that adjusting your thermostat or not using your dishwasher could make a real difference. A 5 increase. 5 could solve this challenge. He says the next move should not be more dirty power plants but more storage for solar, wind and water generated power. The cost of this technology has come down significantly. In california is making come you know, installing these batteries. He seems he said this one hit whippersnapper restaurants can be avoided until Storage Capacity is increased.
