Per district with the zip codes with the highest covid19 cases in the county and testing and Contact Tracing is a challenge.

We have a check in the temperatures from today and they are mild and temperatures have been cooling off a little bit each day each week and we have gone from the midto upper 90s a few days ago in places like fairfield to just 74 degrees today. Tomorrow will be like this as well and this is good news and we are definitely you know fire danger from heat and low humidity is not as bad because you bring in this moisture from this next weather system and hopefully a little bit of rain as well and that is the key word, little bit. Earlier in the week it looked like it may be the real deal with this guy here and it does look good but the latitude stays pretty north with the storm itself and we will get a drizzle perhaps and perhaps a little today and maybe a little bit tomorrow and a little on saturday and the real rain will be in Northern California and oregon and washington which is still a great help but it would have been nice to get a half inch of rain and i said this earlier, this time of year we do the weather and talk about five day forecast but the thing i am always thinking about since i have done this job is in the months of september and october and november i am waiting for the first big rain so we can relax a little bit about the fire danger and i know you are the same way. This could have the potential to be one of those events but it did not work out. So that chance of showers continues on friday into saturday and the downside is on this deal here and i will draw it in for you here this ridge of High Pressure will build in over the top. When it does that high will build back in and the wind will go offshore so we will see some kind of a wind advisory or fire advisory monday night into tuesday and we will see how that goes. The fog and low clouds will be tomorrow morning and indicates a day tomorrow a lot like today but even a little bit cooler and the highs are in the yellow so in the 70s. I dont think we will seek any 80s even in sacramento so that helps with fire danger. In terms of the airquality which is not in great it will help blow the smoke out and it will be a shift as the low comes in so it does look like we have a good looking forecast for the five day and maybe some fire concerns early next week. And orphaned Mountain Lion rescued is showing some signs of improvement.

If i had told you a few days ago that the as would hit 12 home runs and a fourgame series with astros no doubt about it because they beat them seven out of 10 in the regular season and you figure no sweat but it didnt work out and the astros had plenty of home runs and plenty of other stuff to get over on bob melvin and company and look at zach signaling 2 bringing a breaking pitch and ramon says thank you very much i think i will just crush that three run homer and they are out to a quick 30 lead and in the fourth beckoning the same score and cant believe this. Matt olson launches to write and josh reddick the former golden glover shows you why and that is a sensational catch and the as dugout in total disbelief about that and you can kind of see the momentum starting to swing and the fourth beckoning the astros getting to the swing of it and Michael Brantley had two of them today and this one with the as trailing tremendous two and later in that time 21 and carlos knew it and the astros loved the role of being the villain and the seem to be reveling in it right now and just putting it in your face and the seven beckoning, this is the second baseman jose altuve a who had problems of the regular season launching the 2 run homer and the astros win going away 116 illuminating the as and move into the American League championship series with dusty baker for the fourth straight time for houston. In the National League atlanta lays to waste the hopes of the marlins being the cinderella team, but the braves will have to take on the dodgers who are just absolutely rolling right now and nobody has even beaten them in the playoffs so far and will smith with a historic game and a young catcher 25 years old and the youngest player ever to have 5 hits in a postseason game and the first dodger to ever do it and think about their history and the big names there and it will be the braves and the dodgers in the and lcs. Thursday night football right here was a pretty good matchup with a few teams going in 31 and everybody talking about tom brady but they left talking about that guy nick foles and he put together a pretty good game as jimmy graham help them out with a beautiful onehanded grab and the veteran tight and helps turn the tide and chicago was trailing 130 and now theyre leading 1413 in the Fourth Quarter 2019 and he tried to lead one of his patent comebacks late and it was incomplete but you have to see brady and he is like wait a second, i have one more down and it is 4th down and, no, it is in.
