Now well turn to our meteorologist lisa argen for the late test on the conditions outside. Good morning, carolyn. We have a red flag warning for the Higher Elevations of the north and east bay until 8 00 this morning. We still have breezy winds up to 20 miles an hour. Low relative humidity even at this hour. And if there are any fires that, well, there are fires there, but if more start, they can spread very quickly due to the offshore component. So the air quality now unhealthy in the north bay. It is poor everywhere else, but the winds have been pushing the smoke offshore. Getting a break in most of the bay area, except many the north bay. And we will be looking at these breezy winds. Check it out, 25 to 30 miles an hour. This is a couple thousand feet above the surface, but still, were looking at 20mileanhour wind gusts in oakland. And they are all out of the northeast. So the offshore component is not what we want here. 64 in halfmoon bay. 50 in hayward and mountain view. 60 in los gatos. We are looking at a dry, warm day today. The numbers are cool in the valleys this morning. Warmer at the coast. The 70s and 80s for a quick warm up. The mid to upper 80s afternoon. And a little warmer tomorrow.

Get this, cal fire says since january, 243,000 acres have burned statewide. Remarkably in the last week, 214,000 acres have burned. Listen to this. Pretty stunning figure that the fact we have burned as much in a week that we have all year long. Its a fire season in a week. Resources are stretched pretty thin, but the crews are still in good spirits. This is the late season fire. This is when california suffers the most devastating wildfires. Reporter and the fight continues, right . We just got off the phone with cal fire that says crews are getting the upper hand on the fires here in the sew noma valley, really because those erratic winds have dissipated.

Sadly, they could not save several homes here on castle road. But they were able to save many, many others. The mandatory Evacuation Order is still in effect for about 400 people, 400 residents here in this particular area as the firefight continues around us. But there is good news.
