Even San Francisco is going to get a blast of heat. Lets bring in meteorologist rob mayeda who has this updated timeline for us. Temperatures about 10 to 15 degrees warmer than yesterday at this same time. San jose running in the mid80s. 82 in san jose. Out towards walnut creek, 81 degrees as some of the east bay micro climates also in the 80s. Antioch, brentwood, well take you over to San Francisco. Typically the coolest micro climates around the bay area should be right there near ocean beach but pretty interesting, you can see the numbers here, upper 60s and 70s. Right now were fogfree out at ocean beach. A little bit of a late day sea breeze occurring right now, but the winds will change direction tonight into tomorrow.

Authorities to their daughters remains. We knew it was significant because we had talgo downt n to go meet with the district attorney. And they were informed of an offer made by john gardners attorney. His attorney came forward with an offer to plead guilty to all of the charges for life without possibility of parole and waiving his appellate rights.
