Thats the story this week. If you are in the perfect angle with the sun, it felt like 90 degrees. We had a few spots in the lower 90s, at least approaching the lower 90s earlier today, parts of the Santa Clara Valley but most of the bay area, in the 80s this afternoon. Mid to upper 80s. As you can see, you heard about the system out toward colorado, you can see the activity there but over the bay area or the entire state we are in the clear with mostly Clear Conditions across a good portion of the region. Were going to hold onto that forecast for tomorrow but then some bigger changes over the next few days. Right now just a few high clouds approaching the north coast of california up to our north and maybe a few of those high clouds will be moving to the bay area first thing monday morning. Monday should be a fairly nice day out there. Or numbers, still talking about some 80s out toward fairfield and livermore, san jose 84, San Francisco pretty warm, 76. Santa rosa in the upper 70s. Light camera looking out towards the estuary here, high clouds way out in the distance but still pretty warm for your sunday evening and still pretty warm for monday as well. Fair skies expected for your monday, at least when you are waking up and temperatures will be in the mid40s to the mid50s to start out the day. That would be the plan in San Francisco, 7 00 a. M. , monday morning, 56 degrees. By lunchtime, it will be great with temperatures easily back up into the mid70s. Our sky cast still showing you mostly sunny skies but a bit of a breeze kicking up, winds around 20 miles per hour. Lower 70s as we wrap up the afternoon in San Francisco. Looking for clouds, but not much in the wake of significant cloud cover for tomorrow, pretty warm temperatures, 70s all the way to the mid80s, warmest locations around 8586 degrees. So here is the weather story, we have this area of low pressure offshore, going to impact our weather pattern late in the week. But for tomorrow, this high stakes around for one more day. Maybe just a little bit cooler, right near the immediate coastline with that stronger onshore breeze. I pointed out that system offshore, this will definitely drop off our temperatures throughout the week and were also talking about some shower chances as well. Heres the forecast model, well put this into motion, 4 00 p. M. Tuesday, increasing clouds and then wednesday, there is a slight chance of a shower primarily up in the north bay. And then once again, thursday theres a chance of a few showers, best but im thinking that will be on friday. So keep an eye on that in the long range forecast. Temperatures for tomorrow, still locked in the 70s and 80s out there. Walnut creek 86, oakland 80. Hayward 81. San
