all the time. there are many hours upon hours when there is nothing a group of humans can do other than watch these birds learn how to be b d birds. it is in those times, perhaps, these people understand best why it is they perch up here to watch others nesting up there. >> because i love the birds. >> that is garvan thomas reporting. all four chicks made it back to the nest after that

what's going on with the weather. i have to say i loved today. >> wasn't it nice? 80s and 90s. a taste of summer, but that's all about to change. in fact, temperatures today in many locations were above average. take off about 10 to 15 degrees from temperatures today's, that will by our highs for tomorrow. it's really going to be chilly, especially at the coastline. san francisco at 71. 62 for tomorrow. livermore was our warmest at niebt today. 75 for tomorrow. it will be jacket weather for the rest of tomorrow and tuesday. you'll notice thatmumarine layer shrouded in portions of the golden gate bridge and san francisco downtown, down towards santa cruz as well. there's the swirl, you can see it moving down south over the past six hours. that's the system that's developing off the coast, and eventually, it's going to move this way. that's why we're expecting widespread fog for tomorrow and also for tuesday. in fact, this system as it moves onshore, it's not going to give us rain per se, but we will get drizzle, especially at the coast. as you go over the golden gate bridge, even the bay bridge tomorrow morning, expect to see drizzle. not only for that matter, but tomorrow afternoon. all day long, it's going to stay foggy at the coastline. not a lot of sunshine coming our way monday and tuesday. right now, we're looking at clear visibility from the south bay peninsula, even from the east bay. trivalley at 88. oakland, 68 degrees. san francisco, as i was mentioning, shrouded in with fog. the golden gate bridge, this is what it's going to look like night and day for

sunshine by the afternoon, 74. gilroy at 76. palo alto y you'll see the fog in the morning and you'll clear out in the afternoon. it will stay foggy in san mateo, even san francisco not going to see a lot of sunshine for tomorrow. that's going to mean we're going to spend most of the day in the 50s. so definitely jacket weather there. of course, kind of unusual to see folks in shorts, but then you think, those must be visitors, right? if you're visiting the bay area here in june, that's typical. we call it june gloom. trivalley expected temperatures tomorrow in the 70s. oakland with the fog and drizzle, only going to get to 68. the fog and drizzle could measure up to about a tenth of an inch in san francisco. maybe a quarter inch in point reyes. that's really impressive when it comes to drizzle because it's harder to measure. when we're talking about measurable drizzle, that's good news. especially considering we're in one of the driest years we have ever seen in california. we'll take every drop, whether it comes in drizzle, mist, or shower. monday and tuesday, it stays cool. then we get back to the 80s and 90s. diane, your kind of weather is headed our way for wednesday and thursday. perfect beach weather by next weekend as well. you can see that on the seven-day forecast, it's going to be all over the place. call it a roller coaster this week. monday and tuesday, down,

placement tests were thrown out. so those students have to take them again this coming week. some 400 students at amador valley high will have to retake their ap biology test. when parents found out that the california college board found seating irregularities. the problem, the desks were not far enough apart. after months of studying and preparing, senior morgan fisk is worried and her parents are just a little bit frustrated. >> finals are coming up in like the next two weeks. so i'm supposed to be preparing for finals, but instead i have to worry about this a.p. test. >> i'm definitely going to address the vice president or principal of the school and let them know my frustration. my issue is the kids did nothing wrong. >> the superintendent of schools told us teachers and staff will do everything they can to help support students and lighten the school load. students will also be given the option to receive a refund if they don't want to retake the test. >> all they have to say is i don't want to take it? >> then you don't get credit for taking the whole class. >> their parents might have something to say as well? >> you think. we'll be back. gridlock. teacher layoffs. and a 60 billion dollar budget deficit. that's what john perez faced when he became speaker of the california assembly. so he partnered with governor brown to pass three balanced budgets, on time. for

brand new record. olympian andy potts from colorado won the prestigious race for the sixth time. this is the tough part, in some people's opinion. >> in your opinion. >> in my opinion. he finished in 2:04:26. >> i wonder which one he is. >> the one in front. first time sarah haskins came up from florida. she won the women's race. took her 2:18:42 to finish that race. a grueling race features 1.5 mile swim from alcatraz to shore, then you go on an 18-mile bike ride to warm up, and then an 8-mile run. some say potts made it look easy. >> i was pushing the whole way. i train hard so it may look like it's easy on race day, but that's kind of a goal of training hard. >> races aged 16 all the way up to 76 came from more than 40 countries to participate in that triathlon. it's huge. >> there are the two olympic winners. very cool. can't imagine it in a million years. >> yeah. >> can't do it. anthony slaughter, let's check out what's going on with you. >> you know, temperatures in san
