Thousands of people still cannot return to their homes. Chief meteorologist Lawrence Karnow. Joining us shortly with them more on these said conditions that firefighters are having to face hopefully they will be improving sometime soon with weather and rain in the forecast yeah keeping our fingers crossed wed like to see a significant rain event unfortunately. This doesnt look like its going to be big enough to end wildfire season. So. Firefighters working hard to contain the fire right now theyve had some favorable weather west southwesterly wind. Thats a very moist. Wind and has been really really strong gusts this afternoon 1012 Miles Per Hour right now this is where we sit looking 4 miles an hour same lena 9 and po valley at 2 in soda springs, you get the idea, fairly light winds out there right now and out of a direction thats favorable to bring some much higher moisture rates now theres some concern were going to see a front come through bring with it a chance some rain maybe a quarter of an inch thats really not enough. Then the fire season would like to get upwards of an inch or so then we can start to really tone down the fire season but after that front moves through were going to see some strong northerly winds develop again. These are gust being picked up by our models of 20 and 30 Miles Per Hour of course you get this kind of wind with an active fire that is very very dangerous and i think not only then were going to see another offshore wind event probably about the middle to latter part of next week too so certainly want to get the fire season under wraps here but weve got a long way to go now there right now were kitchen, a nice blanket of fog that has moved into the bay you see move over San Francisco right now that certainly helps is a move further and further on shore, heres a look now starting to bump up against the east bay hills really kind of a neat look all lit from lights down below in berkeley can see just a nice blanket of fog filling into the bay now thats great. But its fairly shallow only coming in about a 1000 feet so some of the fires are burning upwards of 2000 feet of that moisture not mixing up those higher levels as well so well keep our fingers crossed on that one and the fire danger and certainly some hotter temperatures in of these numbers going to be coming down the next couple of days as they come down it will be a little bit easier for firefighters to contain that fire with more moisture in the air. But this weekend, everything changes with that offshore wind. Thank you. Lawrence said neighbor in San Franciscos haightashbury captured this video over the weekend an all out brawl.
