some low visibility in some spots. then as we go into the inland areas, it will be mostly sunny and a seasonal day. right now at 63 degrees in the north bay, 68 in san francisco, south bay is at 73 degrees as we get a closer look at the east bay in brentwood, it's 80 degrees. we do still have some 60s on the map here in alameda, and hayward hills at 69 degrees. with our temperatures still fairly

that. a lot of sunshine, and temperatures staying in the upper 70s. a breeze kicking in later on today. highs will be in the 70s, dropping back into the 60s. later on tonight with mostly clear skies. it will be turning breezy this weekend. we do have a cool westerly winds, giving us the clouds, coastal fogs, as this area of low pressure gets closer, we'll have more of a southwesterly wind. that allows for a bit of a surge in warmer air, but it won't be really warm. just a few degrees. and the tri-valley will be in the upper 80s, peninsula in the lower 80s, and the south bay will be around 86 degrees on sunday. sam and kris? thank you very much, kari. a refreshing weekend. up next, a look at what's going on in the bay area and who else our local expert. mike inouye has a look. >> he has
