It is different, it is weird. Nothing but smoke. Normally packed with cars and tailgaters before the game sat empty. And the nearby roads typically seen with bumpertobumper traffic also nearly empty.

Kpix5 is helping you vote smart this november. We will be putting voter resources and information together on kpix. Com, and on the kpix5 app. We would all have an overwhelming victory for making a change if the vote were to be held today. You say there is some change. Theres some good news, as early as tuesday. The big pattern change in the atmosphere is finally going to take place. To at least to start pushing the smoke away. He does not turn the smoke off, it is not going to impact the fires in any significant way although it might actually help them run a little more but it will at least start moving the air out of here. First of all heres the next five hours. This is the smoke forecast that takes us through about an hour and we are playing it forward. You see whats happening . The onshore flow, taking most of the smoke and pushing 80s. Weve already witnessed this a bit today. You can see the three offenders on here. That is the dolan fire in big sur. Deep plume of red getting pushed off to the east. That is been one of the main offenders of the bay area. But this is quite complex fire that took off yesterday, you have the creek fire over here, i mean, they are just merging. Either way, it pushes the east. If we switch this over into the upper level wind, you can already see the direction they are moving but as i play this into the overnight hours, it is subtle but that just gets a little bit stronger. That is a small step toward improvement. But that is not the big change i am talking about. In order to see that we have to look out into the pacific. You see the big mass of clouds out here, the future cast model has been reading this, there is rain out there, and that is what it has the like over the past few hours. But what is interesting about this system, there are two things. Not only the change in the upper level wind pattern, but the amount of rain that is going to going to oregon from this. We are not going to get much rain if any. Here. But this system is fueled by a moderate atmospheric river. And that is another term that is like on the whole other end of the spectrum from what we have been experiencing for the last several months but these are becoming more and more significant players. It is very early in the season to have one of these. And to have one of moderate strength is unusual. But it is going to oregon. That means they will get some rain out of this. If you play this forward watch what happens. Most of the rain does not really happen until we get into tuesday and wednesday but if you look at the scale thereto portland, and institute is the brain along the coast, there have been huge fires here. And this will begreat news for oregon. But it is going to be great news for us as well because as that system comes onshore the wind for the second half of the week are going to start to clear out, the bulk of our smoke. Now i will surely the flipside of this and we are going to ahead seven days now. This says next sunday because as that system works its way through with great news for the second half of this week, when it leaves, it is going to do the opposite. On its exit it is going to give us offshore wind next sunday. That means dry offshore wind moving over to sierra, andover some of these fires. So it is good news for the second half of this week but it shows another wildcard into the forecast for the end of next weekend. We are not out of this, even if, we have a good break coming our way but that does not mean we are out of the hole fire season situation. Overnight lows tomorrow, back into the mid and upper 50s, daytime highs tomorrow coming into the mid80s inland and in sevenday forecast, it looks good from wednesday, thursday, friday, saturday but if you look at sunday, i put hayes back in there, it is not have to play out this way but we should be inking ahead, after we get this break wah nextayca offshore wind could be returning to the sierra and is doubtful the fires will be out completely by then. More on that coming up in the 6 00 hour. Over to you. Week one, of the nfl football season, and both the raiders and 49ers are on the final plays of the game. Could the 49ers musters rob low the 49ers odds are against them, going back to the super bowl, but what about the division itself .

Fourth quarter, the last two seasons, finally scores is forced to jump the 49ers on a pass from jimmy garoppolo, 2017, San Francisco. It was not a good defensive effort. Kyler murray, is traded in the offseason was wide open, brought down at the goal line. Polson, 2420, arizona in front and youre thinking, they will pull the rabbit out of his hat. Under two to go, Patrick Peterson knocks up, passed away on the end zone, could make the play. Then on third down, another shot into the end zone but they batted away, from taylor. They needed just 5 yards to keep the game alive but there is more again. The last two passes were intended for taylor, the 49ers do not have samuel or brandon aiyuk, and they lose 2420. The last replayed these guys came down to the wire just like this one dated, we had a chance thereto when at the end, they made a good play, there in the end zone, onboarding, on the double moving and on the fourth down they made a good play, stop, turn on the out route and became it a little bit short. Jon gruden arm in arm with his players and carolina, lady liberty back in vegas, ready for the new era of greater football. Fourth quarter, ricky quarterback damon arnette, feet fell down.

Josh aiken breaks the tackle, score sister touchdown of the game come that is a careerhigh for him, gruden looking for a stop. They made the big play when it mattered most. They when 3430. They are 10 in the vegas era. A historic one for me, for all of our players and our entire organization. Everybody got game balls.
