time, volunteer. >> if you don't have the time, give money. >> whatever people can give, even if it's $5, a couple of cans of food, they're not using anymore. >> so if you'd like to help any of the organizers, as we're profiling today on abc seven news, we have all the information on our website, abc seven news.com/take action it's important to do it today as many nonprofits are doing matching pledges the day of giving. >> and so many need help right now. absolutely >> especially this year. >> yeah. >> yeah. and we get closer to the holidays and you know, you don't want to be have a food scarcity. you know it's really it's a tough situation for so many people. let's lighten it up a little bit. we turn to the to the weather forecast. green i saw some green on the map. yeah, i know. >> i know. that gets you excited. >> spencer live doppler seven has been a little bit blank lately, but not now. here's a look at the storm that's coming our way on the satellite radar. composite image. you can see it

moving mainly into northern california down north. but we are going to get some beneficial rain from this system. so let's take a look at live doppler seven right now. and you can see that off shore, there are little pockets of showers approaching the coastline. they'll be moving inland during the early evening hours. right now, we're looking out over san francisco from sutro tower under clear skies, 60 degrees here in the city, 61 apiece at oakland mountain view, palo alto, 66 at san jose and 59 at half moon bay. and here's the view from emeryville looking toward the golden gate, you can see the skies getting a little bit cloudier right now, looking westward and northward, light rain and showers arrive this evening. showers continue through tomorrow morning and it'll be wet and a wet and unsettled pattern lingering into friday. now the approaching storm on the exclusive abc seven storm impact scale is a level one. a storm of light intensity, but it will be bringing periods of rain and showers to the bay area tonight overnight and into tomorrow. slick roads and breezy at times. so just bear that in mind. here's the forecast animation. starting at 530, those light showers will start

to move into the north bay in the early evening hours and they will expand and hit other parts of the bay area going into the later night and overnight hours. and speaking of overnight, just before the morning commute begins, we'll see some steadier, heavier, more widespread rain pushing onshore. so it could be a very wet morning commute, but we don't expect the rain to last very late into the day by mid to late afternoon. it should be just about over. and rainfall totals will be generally under or under a 10th of an inch, but maybe a third or more at novato and down at ben lomond, about a quarter of an inch. so some locations will be pretty wet overnight, low temperatures will be mainly in the low well mainly in the mid to upper 40s actually. but the lower 40s will be in our inland areas, which will be our coolest areas as they generally are. highs tomorrow under partly cloudy afternoon skies when the rain has mainly ended will be in the low 60s. pretty much across the entire region. so a cooler than average day now looking farther ahead into the forecast future, thursday morning, we'll see more rain, light rain arriving snow in the sierra. that'll wind down and more rain coming in late

friday into early saturday and more snow in the sierra. so this is an active and unsettled pattern. as i mentioned. here's the accuweather seven day forecast. so level one storms tomorrow and thursday and still a lingering chance of showers on friday morning. still unsettled on saturday. it's possible another shower could pop up on saturday. then on sunday, partly cloudy, a little bit brighter and then friday and saturday and going into early next week, we'll get a minor warm-up by a few degrees. >> wow. all right. keep your umbrella handy this week, right? >> yes. >> be ready for it. >> your jacket. >> yeah, that's true. jacket too. >> yeah. yeah. cold. >> well, we're talking about storms us this thursday. atlantic hurricane season comes to an end. and while the activity fell within predicted ranges, this was a near record year. the national oceanic atmospheric administrator says this year we had 20 named storms . that's the fourth most on record. the only names remaining on their list for this year are vince and whitney. if we get past z, i don't know what we do. we go back to the a's. i guess
