Mostly cloudy skies tonight, scattered showers possible, especially over the east bay and south bay and plenty of clouds still lingering thursday but lower rain chances during the day and that calm weather pattern takes over. Its going to be warmer this weekend which is especially farther inland where temperatures will reach well into the 70s beginning on saturday.
