oyster in the mid-levels of the atmosphere. and i don't expect any rain through tonight, that will stay off to the north, and the west of us. we will begin to get showers here by 9:00 but things will pick up, and i think when it might slow you down on the roadways, that'll be tomorrow afternoon and evening. down to the peninsula in east bay as well, then in san jose, 5:00 at night, and it would stay there through about 8:00 p.m., then, this is expected to clear out as you roll through 11:00 tomorrow night. in fall totals, a half-inch throughout the bay area. higher elevations, even santa cruz mountains, may be closer to three quarters of an inch but this should move in and out quickly, limiting this through the area. temperatures for tomorrow morning, 43 in the tri-valley, san francisco, 49 and east bay, 46. now with the system sweeping

across, it should drop numbers off by 3 to 6 degrees. that will put us back to 58 in cupertino. across the east bay, 58 in danville. we will get a little bit of a gust coming in with that storm tomorrow, but it doesn't look extreme. san francisco, 56 in the marina, for the north bay, but we get the rain chance tomorrow, and the second storm after that, should be lining up the way we are seeing it now, by late saturday morning, rain totals, i'm seeing a half to two inches, and i really think at this point, most of the bay area is a half to one inch, then for the north they and the coast, you are in the 1 to 2 inch range. winds up to 45 miles per hour, now, rainfall, we are doing pretty good right now when it comes to her season. look at this, santa rosa, has seen 21.34 inches so far this

year, that's up two point 97 inches. 2.43 in san francisco. a little bit of the deficit here but we can make up for that. so on the seven-day forecast, we will get the other storm system i late sunday night and also into monday. so there's still some rakes in between the storms, and that should help. so that rain coming in tomorrow. it's going to make the afternoon commute -- >> it's romantic. an eyesore and a major safety concern. a new video showing a parachute or jumping off of a controversy oh, abandoned building. the news that may have impacted your 401(k) and could put the brakes on the lowering impacted your 401(k) and could put the brakes on the lowering of
