Can you believe that we are going to see a pattern change for the second half of the forecast. But in the near term, we are still tracking those gusty winds in the north bay overnight tonight with the red flag warnings and our issues with our air quality. They do continue for the second half of the weekend. Current conditions, youre looking at an air quality map. Its a mixed bag. And location is really key as to what type of air youre currently breathing. You can see from fairfield and especially into vacaville we have moderate to unhealthy air quality. The worst air qualit in california is in the Central Valley. You can see a lot of green dots close to the coast. We have a sea breeze and fog mixing in fresh air. Around the bay shoreline most areas are moderate air quality, meaning levels range between 51 and 100 right now. Tomorrow, though, and through tuesday, we have spare the air days expected as our air quality will continue to have smoke. Not only from the glass fire, but from fires burning across Northern California currently still in our atmosphere. So tomorrow the worst air quality will be in the north bay and in the east bay, where we will find unhealthy air quality at times. Monday and tuesday, we fluctuate between moderate and poor air quality. But by wednesday, we are expecting our winds to shift. More of an onshore breeze, meaning that wind is coming off of the ocean water, bringing fresh air that should keep our air quality in the moderate range by midweek. So were keeping our eye on that very closely. Here is live doppler 7 along with satellite. There you can sow some fog right up along the immediate coastline. Our marine layer tonight is pretty compressed. Were just thinking fog will remain close to the coast. Unfortunately, not much in the way of fog around the bay shoreline overnight tonight. Right now were at 58 in San Francisco. But were still at 70 in concord. Still some mild air out there tonight. Its 74 in cloverdale. Were at 62346 san jose. 69 the current temperature in livermore. Overnight tonight patchy fog along the coast. Otherwise still dealing with hazy skies overnight. Mid50s to low 60s, starting temperatures as we get into sunday. Sunday, hazy sunshine, a spare the air day. Not as hot as today, but it is still pretty warm inland. Were seeing high temperatures well into the 90s with fairfield, antioch. 92 for cloverdale. 80 for oakland. 74 the forecasted high for San Francisco. So still temperatures slightly above average for this time of the year. Here is the accuweather sevenday forecast. Show you whats happening over the next seven days. In the near term, its all about those hazy skies. Sunday, monday and tuesday spare the air days are in effect. Wednesday, our winds shift. Our temperatures drop. Better air to breathe. And then all eyes, dion, are on friday night into saturday. One week from today does look like a storm will move into Northern California, and it will bring us some light rain. Still too soon to talk about how much rain were expect
