celebrations, people shaking their hands. >> living history is how we always looked at it. >> for sure. meteorologist rob mayeda is standing by with the weekend forecast. i understand it's going to get hotter tomorrow. >> in fact, the tri-valley could see a few spots closing in on 90. right now, 70s and 80s, high clouds on approach. san jose downtown a toasty 80 degrees. mid-80s south of downtown san jose, dubl lynn 79 degrees. here's what's interesting, thanks to the offshore wind pattern, you don't have to change what you're from dublin to san francisco, 77 degrees. a light jacket later on this evening and look at the sunny skies around mt. tam to point. clear skies, no sign of fog, and really, the ocean air conditioning is going away. as you can see, even in the late afternoon, still upper 70s around san francisco, winds mostly out of the north right now. and as we head through the day tomorrow, again, they're going to turn offshore, which should set the stage for a warm day. clear skies across the west, high pressure located right there providing some offshore, dry and gusty winds at times around the hills. meantime, the system that brought little bit of rain to the bay area now causing a big mess. if you have friends and family around boulder or denver, colorado, right now, they're looking at a lot of snow and severe weather outbreak there across the southern portion of the u.s. around texas and oklahoma. so, that's where the active weather is now with high pressure in place. no sign of really any act weather around the bay area, just the question is how quickly will those temperatures warm up for your sunday. you'll notice going from the around the morning, still some jacket weather early, then closing in close to 80 degrees by noon in the warmest spots. in san jose, average high should be in the upper 60s tomorrow. looks like mid-80s in the forecast. areas south of downtown will have a chance of going into the upper 80s. notice in the peninsula over to san francisco, again, upper 70s to near 80 degrees, which means if you're going to head out to the cherry blossom festival, mike and robert out there from nbc bay area, temperatures in the upper 70s. so, maybe a little warm in some of the kimonos tomorrow around san francisco with the warm to hot temperatures from the north bay into the tri-valley. oakland seeing temperatures in the mid-80s for the baseball game out there. gorgeous conditions. the ball will probably carry pretty well with those low humidity and warm temperatures out there out at the ballpark tomorrow, numbers in the mid-80s. so, the warmest temperatures we'll see over the next seven days, as you can see on the bottom of the screen, will be thanks to high pressure holding on probably until about monday afternoon. then as we head towards tuesday, the first of two systems we're tracking will begin to at least toss a slight chance of showers on wednesday. the main effect of that system, though, bringing down those temperatures going from near 80 degrees in the north bay on monday, 60s pretty much bay area wide as we approach the middle part of the week, except in san jose. still some low 70s by wednesday. then the more intense of the two systems dropping in as we go into thursday and friday. adds a little more moisture to work with and should dive a little bit further to the south. so, starting as early as late thursday into the north bay into friday, here comes our best chance for seeing some rain, and it should be cold for snow levels perhaps as low as 6,000 feet. so, the sierra could get a little bit of snow, again, mainly towards friday. so, we're jumping way ahead. almost to the end of the seven-day forecast. our best chance of rain showing up, in case you're making plans for next weekend. right now it looks like most of the rain should move on late friday, saturday and sunday. more sunshine with clearing skies for next weekend, only 60s to low 70s for highs. now, that's what we should normally see this time of year. instead for tomorrow, kind of like you're seeing right now, numbers climbing on up, mid-to-upper 80s around the douth bay and also close to 80 again around san francisco for your sunday afternoon. back to you. >> rob, thanks very much. and coming up, president obama and steph curry teaming up. the message behind this video just released from
