Lets bring in chief meteorologist jeff ranieri with more on the conditions theyre dealing with. Even some low 90s in the vicinity of the fire. The heat and the humidity are the number one things theyre battling. The good news which is probably helping them get that containment we just heard about is the wind is not extremely gusty. Right now we have winds out of the northwest at 10, occasional gusts to 20. So that likely has been helping those firefighters. Here you can see it on this map. South of Lake Berryessa.

Here is a look at the morning visibility. So far the fog is not very thick and not hugging the ground quite as much. The clouds are out there, the marine layer at about 800 feet. In fact, thats the ceiling at half moon bay. I look for an increase in some of the clouds and fog as we head through the morning. A lot like we did yesterday morning. You can see from the east bay hills, pretty clear across most of our neighborhoods, even San Francisco until you get to the coast. Starting off pretty much the same. Now at noon well be pretty close to where we were yesterday. Well make the jump to the 90s inland, 60 at the coast. As we head through the evening hours, at the coast 57, the rest of us probably short sleeves, 72 to 79. Good morning, mike. So far so good for the Tuesday Morning drive. A live look

With some really nice conditions. Look forward to theres that little bit of fog right through the golden gate. And its just pushed right along the bridge deck, which is enough to get the bridge a little wet and a little low on the visibility side of things. So do make sure that youre taking a little slower.
