I was thinking if the red sox got into the world series and they were playing at home. Yeah. Remember the twins, thats never going to happen. Weather has changed so much lately. Its been stuck in this pattern. East of the rockies weve had the heat. Second warmest october on record around the bay area and fire danger. The fire danger will be elevated.

Tomorrow, 10 degrees on top of that in the low 70s with not as much of that on shore influence. Temperatures will be warmer around the bay, low to mid 70s. Mid to upper 60s along the coast. 80s inland. 70s around the south end of the bay. Low 80s for the santa clara valley. Mid 80s in the east bay. Farther down the line, warm weather for most of next week, changes toward the end of next week, the long range forecast models agree that were going to see this storm system diving down toward the west coast, the european forecast model keeps it here, a little bit closer to us. Which means its going to be significantly cooler late next week. Also with a good chance of rain, it will tap into moisture down south. Also the possibility of snow in the sierra.
