this was so close, but so far scenario here tonight. >> yeah, i thought i had a good final round performance. 25 would usually win it. but when you're going up a great shooter like devin booker, he

you gotta be almost perfect i was a couple close misses away. >> you had some in and outs that were just heartbreak there. >> that's life. hopefully i'll give this one more time, but it was fun while

abc7 news.com. and you can catch his live reports from the game tonight. >> now, your accuweather forecast with lisa argen. >> good morning to you. weather changing pretty rapidly out there as the winds kick up and the temperatures begin to feel a little bit more like the season. here's a live look outside from mt. tam. you can see the cloud cover and right now, it's shaking a little bit. but the winds are certainly gusty up above, 20 to 40 miles an hour. so in santa rosa, mid 50s today. tomorrow only in the mid 50s. all week long, we struggle to make it to average readings, which wie'll be shy of. you know it had to happen, we were running way too warm for three weeks. the last time it did rain was january 25th. we're in our 23rd dry day, but some of you are reporting showers this morning. so from mountain view to the coast, we've seen a little bit of precip, and that's all we're going to get. usually these very cold systems hold very little moisture and there will be several this week, but that's the point, they're not going to bring much in the way of moisture. you can see from live doppler 7, the speckling of the clouds. that's the indication of the cold, cold air out there. and this is san rafael, it's along the coast, santa cruz in the 60s last, a little bit cooler. and we saw low 70s at the concord airport, the livermore airport, say goodbye to that. we could see record low temperatures for several days. 52 by the delta, as well as livermore, and it's 50 in santa rosa. currently, the winds at the surface, we're looking at very breezy conditions. 23-mile-an-hour winds at the airport. and east bay, 24-mile-an-hour winds and the gusts much, much stronger. san jose, 101. you can see the cloud cover, looks like february. partly cloudy skies, windy and cool today. a freeze watch in effect for monday night into tuesday. the presidents day holiday does not bode well for traveling to the mountains, but we are expecting snow there. with the freezing cold temperatures here, mixed precip, we could see sleet and a rain/snow mix, certainly along the coastal hills. a freeze watch here with widespread sub freezing temperatures to the north, this will be upgraded to a warning as we get 24 hours out from the event. so tonight we're going to be almost as cold, but a little bit of wind will keep us right around freezing. looking at the precip, you can see hs unit's running parallel e coast. certainly the santa cruz mountains has the best chance for accumulating snow. 20 to 30-mile-an-hour wind gusts, they'll ramp up right through the day. in fact, through the afternoon into tomorrow. still going to be breezy, and we'll look at that snow anywhere from half a foot up towards ten inches, perhaps. that's a pretty good bonus for this system. and looking at highs today, very chilly out there with numbers just in the 50s. it's gonna be a cold night tonight. you can download our accuweather app and keep up to date. the accuweather seven-day forecast shows opportunities for a few sprinkles. >> a few sprinkles? >> a few sprinkles. >> speaking of sprinkles, we can get our drink on. that's because today is national drink wine day. and alaska airlines is making it easier to celebrate. the airline just expanded its wine flies free program to 18 new airports, including oakland, sfo, and san jose. the program lets members in alaska's mileage plan program check a case of wine, 12 bottles, at no cost on their flight. we're witnessing the earliest bud break on record for grapes in wine country. that may not be a good thing. grapevines are starting to bud because the weather's been so warm. that's about to change, but this is about a month earlier than usual. abc7 news reporter wayne freedman talked to experts about what this will mean for wine. >> reporter: it feels like an early spring in the napa county wine country, the mustards are out and the picnickers. there are tourists with not a care in the world. >> idyllic, picturesque.
