Cold start to the day and cool into the afternoon. Another storm off the coastline thats going to sweep just along the coast. Could bring another chance of rain as early as tomorrow. High country 30s and 40s, 50s in the valley with fog. Tomorrow looks like showers will skirt at least along the coastline. And then it moves on by. So this is kind of a near miss as it moves on across the bay area not a whole lot of rain with it. But more rain especially late on saturday now and into sunday. 54 milpitas, 55 san jose, east bay numbers up in the 40s mostly sunny skies this afternoon.
