Is going to be a lot like yesterday. The weather is not change until we get to about friday. We are staying sunny, warm and above average. Since we got a little bit of an adjustment today with the clocks being different let me just give you a review on how this guy is going to look a bit different and are sunset and sunrise times and how theyve changed. Sunrise 6 35. That an hour earlier than it was yesterday so were already getting real pretty light in the sky. I will show that in a second and the sun is going down at 5 10. Thats really where we notice these light getting darker so much earlier but the people who are not really early risers miss out on the fact that you are now getting an hour earlier of light. Thats what it looks like our view from the top of the Mark Hopkins Hotel from the east. San jose, thats you a few mid level clouds overhead for the santa clara valley. Here is what it looks like, not to the bay bridge looking off towards the east its just always nice to take that on an earlymorning view and watch the traffic just streaming through unimpeded. There is your view from the top of the Salesforce Tower looking east. We still got a little ways to go. Its not until 6 35 before we get to sunrise today. Its a bit chilly. 44 degrees livermore. That will feel cold. A little colder than maybe what you have gotten used to buy a couple of degrees anyway. 47 concorde, 48 san jose. 42 santa rosa. Definitely warmer than it was yesterday. A little bit of those midlevel clouds are keeping a slightly warmer. But there is a decrease in air quality and now for the first time in a little while anyway one of our air quality sensors is reporting unhealthy for sensitive groups down here for san jose. Everybody else is moderate but we have already seen one sensor go down to unhealthy for sensitive groups. If we look at where this is coming from there is the point source for the smoke coming of the creek fire. Watch the times up there. We will play this for the remainder of today and tomorrow and we keep pulling in just enough smoke in the mid and upper level some of it just down here to the ground and we have to keep talking about air quality in the moderate category. If not even a little worse at times as we saw for at least that one official sensor in san jose already reading unhealthy for sensitive groups today. As far as the sunny and warm, thats not changing. We are doing it again today. 84 campbell, 80 palo alto, union city hit 78. 84 concord. Dublin 84. Walnut creek 84. Numbers in the media bay come into the mid and upper 70s. We will go to 81 in novato, 83 santa rosa and similar numbers as we start to get further north. One thing about this temperatures to keep in mind. We are well above average. About 10 degrees above average for this time of year and it will stay that way into we get to friday. As you take a look at friday the temperatures are really going to do quite a noticeable change. Many parts of the mountains of california will actually go below average but in the bay area since is no color shading on there that shows us by friday or temperatures are going all the way back down to average and just to show you what that looks like we go from 84 thursday inland to right around 70. Thats a big change. Thursday into friday. Notice how the clouds increase there. Its not a very impressive shot. But there is a small hint of a remote possibility we might get some light rain by the time we get to friday and saturday. The more certain changes the cooldown but will keep our fingers crossed that we get a little light rain at of this pattern change. I think this is the third time you promised me rain but you have yet really to deliver. I will hold you to it. Its the second time in the caveat here is i said its a small possibility for keep your fingers crossed hope. Remember that too will we get there. Thank you.
