sunny to mostly sunny. 50s, 60s to 70s already in fairfield. probably no problem hitting the 100s. there should be a late westerly breeze instead of the northerly breeze we had yesterday. i mean, red flag warning still out. sacramento valley. fog circling the wagon. it will be here again. the fog forecast shows there's pog. by tonight -- patchy fog. by tonight it will fill in. i think we'll get a coastal eddy maybe by bodega bay and tomorrow will be much, much cooler. today, warm to hot away from the coast. by it, i think there will be a lot of 60s here. a late breeze out of the west. it looks like it will develop but not before 70s, 80s to 90s. hot conditions. st. helena, fairfield, we lose the north wind but still, 101 for pittsburg. 101 for livermore. 82 oakland. near 100 for many. 90
