says some detectives are juggling up to 60 cases each. san jose police patrol officers and a sexual assault unit combined to stop a man who assaulted two women. but sources including some members of

because all our detective bureaus are not immune to the idea of large case loads. >> reporter: so at this point, the sexual assault unit detectives will continue to be drafted into patrol duty as well as the on-call and overtime obligations. police officials emphasize that the city and union are still trying to work out the pension and benefits issues to help in recruitment but emphasize until that

picture to show you guys in a minute. the top temperatures brentwood at 107. petaluma 103. los gatos, 101. and south san jose also at 99. let's get to the photo. the fog is now coming in at about 1500 feet. and that's definitely going to be cooleringing cooling our temperatures off. peninsula at 81. out of the low 100s to the east bay at 96. and we can get a reverse angle shot of this fog right now moving in san francisco. swallowing up the golden get a bridge and the entire skyline right now. let's go ahead and move on to the morning forecast. and when the colder air gets in here 59 for the north bay. temperatures overall the micro climate forecast we'll drop five to yes, 10 degrees tomorrow. we'll feel it here. we'll have morgan hill at 93. but, at least, it's not the 100s. heading to

some of these micro climates. down to 39 tomorrow in the north bay. east bay you'll have 75 and oakland, 90 in fremont. and instead of 105 in pleasanton like today, down to 97. here's the reason why temperatures will be dropping. high pressure that brought the heat the past two and a half days begins to kick off towards the east. that will make way for this trough of low pressure to develop offshore. not only will that help increase the fog at the coastline but we hope it will pump up moisture mainly bringing humid conditions with a slight chance of showers in the bay area. as you see throughout friday humidity moving up from the south. the bulk of the moisture will say to the south of fresno but we think a small branch of this could break off and maybe impact areas near san francisco also for san jose. so let's take you into the weekend forecast. the humidity will likely linger all the way through saturday and sunday. even though temperatures are keerl, it's going to feel muggy with mid-80s in the south bay. tri valley with 90 by sunday. >> ooh, it is amazingly hot. here's what's coming up next. you hear that you have bleeding in your brain. what comes to mind?
