Its just been so darn hot that even that kind of a drop, and you still felt the heat. Right now averaging 93 in the south bay. Theres some cooler weather in the peninsula with 84. This is where it is still unbearable, an average of 102 in the east bay. Numbers down quite a bit in San Francisco at 71 degrees.

As we get a look through the morning hours, well have that increased cloud cover from the north bay down to the south bay and also cooler temperatures to start in the upper 50s and also low 60s. No doubt, the largest change were tracking is on the doppler radar, showers off to the south. Well zoom in, as i put it on a loop over the past hour. Granted, a lot of activity offshore moving from the south off to the north. But there is this stray chance as we head throughout this weekend we may actually see a little bit of this activity make it up here towards the bay area.

That is the main thing i think most people notice, are those cooler temperatures. When that happens, it will allow these numbers to drop 10 to 15 degrees. But its also going to allow some sub tropical moisture to move in. So were talking about increased humidity, increased cloud cover, not only the cooler temperatures, but maybe a few spotty showers. Its from remnants of what was once Tropical Storm linda. The best possibility would be in southern and central california, also for the sierra of these thunderstorms. Once again for the bay area, rainfall models now two days in a row have picked up on at least something. Best chance will be at the immediate coastline, maybe. 100 of an inch, and thats for the entire weekend. So not a lot.
