Monday. It was noisy last night due to the winds. Thats part of the equation for the red flag warning. Outside the Santa Clara Valley were still dealing with the potential of damaging winds through at least 11 00 this morning. Now, you factor in drier air thats rolling in after 11 00, thats why we have the red flag warning thats going to extend until 5 00. It does not include the Santa Clara Valley. Youre missing out on both of these. The San Francisco bay shore and San Francisco also not in the red flag warning. Lets look at the winds right now, up in the Higher Elevations, still pushing well over 40 Miles Per Hour. Weve been up around 50 and 60 during the night. Thats why its been noisy in some neighborhoods. Down at the surface, seeing 37 at Half Moon Bay. 33 at fairfield. 24 in San Francisco. 31 in santa rosa. This is also going to help us push into record territory this afternoon from 66 in Half Moon Bay to 74 today in santa rosa and also in antioch i should say also in fairfield.
Cloudy, a little foggy especially across the north bay as we expected. Thankfully this cold front has been quiet. The winds are starting to pick up in the north bay and the hills, the fog wont last nearly as long as it usually would. That wind will shove it out of the way heading through the morning commute. It will be breezy and cooler this afternoon. Yesterday, a lot of us were in the mid to upper mid to upper 50s along the coast. Well look at your thanksgiving forecast coming up. Now to the deadly toll the coronavirus is taking on the u. S. More than 2,000 people died from covid19 yesterday. That marks the deadliest day in more than six months. Right now more than 88,000 americans are hospitalized. For the 22nd day in a row, the u. S. Has reported more than 100,000 new cases. As those numbers rise, the cdc is considering shortening the quarantine period for people who have been potentially exposed. Currently it recommends two weeks, but they could change guidelines to 7 to 10 days.
Valley. Everywhere in red there the potential for a high fire danger. Look at the winds. These are at the surface. 37 at fairfield, 32 in novato, 43 in santa rosa. Theyre even faster up in the hills. That means theyll get faster down in the surface once the sun comes up. Thats why we have that wind advisory through 11 00. Near record high temperatures today also from 66 in Half Moon Bay to about 74 in santa rosa. We have hazards at our beaches also and another potential red flag warning coming up in the accuweather 7day forecast. Thank you. Bay area firefighters were busy this weekend preparing for the potential fire danger that is stretching into today. Red flag warnings in december are rare. The last one happened in 2017. So with winds through tonight, firefighters are remaining vigilant. I dont think any of us thought we would be upstaffing and moving into a red flag and wind advisory for december. Its not typical for the bay area. The concern for winds like this, they will likely b
