will undergo changes. in the short term, things are looking good as we look out. we are going to see passing clouds, a dry pattern settling in all of the way through christmas and the day after christmas. breezy at times tomorrow, not a blustery day, not by bay area standards, a chance of rain not heading our way until wednesday of next week. the passing clouds will not take much out of our electricity generation in the short day time hours doing that efficiently. the shortest amount of daylight of the year. so, we will make the most of it heading through the next couple of days the rain chances arrive by the middle of next week. kicks off a unsettleeled weather pattern continuing through the rest of next week and likely through new years and january. looking at the 6-10 day outlook. taking us through new year's eve. the 1st and 8-14 day outlook, it shows a good chance of wetter that than normal conditions. different perspective looking

out from sales force tower. clouds out there, holding in on ground level. middle 40s, otherwise, the temperatures are holding in the 50s, most of us dropping down to the 40s by early tomorrow morning, middle to upper 40s to around 50 degrees, these numbers are 3-7 degrees above normal. going to warm up from there. a good dog-walking forecast for tomorrow, courtesy of trudy. she can parade that around tomorrow. petaluma in the lower to middle 60s. not bad at all for the first day of winter. let's fill in the rest of the plan and talk about tomorrow's highs that will be 5-10 degrees above normal for one more day. this is the last warm day by december standards, most of the temperatures will be in the lower to middle 60s. some of the warmest spots, reaching the upper 60s. only upper 50s in half moon bay, we will join you heading through christmas weekend. temperatures in the lower 60'ss in san francisco, middle to upper 60s in the

[ laughter ] >> i believe it. like the seinfeld episode where he wants to switch to the cotton jerseys. >> maybe that is a thing. i certainly feel like i would have mobility problems in that given situation no. i would not do well. >> hopefully the 9ers have their pants fitting just right. >> they are the best team in the nfl. close to locking up the number one seed by the way.

it is really hard to find anything to complain about when it comes to them. but, christian mccaffrey got called out for a terrible flop on his part during the eagles game. another look. for a guy that never seems to go down he went flying easily. it was one of the worst acting jobs he ever seen. cmc agreed and his head coach was not all that impressed either. >> i thought that was the only thing he did not do well there year [ laughter ] not the best flop. you got to be, it can not be so obvious. sometimes guys can not see it because it happened so fast. they can see the reaction, you don't want it turn it into the nba too fast. >> i like the nba call out. sweepstakes come to a close. giants fans may of raided the liquor cabinet. he signed for 12 years, $325 million. the latest example of the giants whiffing on a major

free agent. and now no. buster posey, now a part time owner, says the reputation of the city has been called out by free agents and did nothing to defend san francisco. warriors have not struggled so, what gives? plenty of other big names like snell, strowmen, they are still out there. time to make calls because this fan base brewing and anger is apparent. speaking of one of those big misses, there he is. new dodgers, shohei ohtani. playoff on the line. l.a. took care of business. before the half, robinson, up the middle for 6. up 17-7 at the half. in the third quarter. williams, puts it away. giving the rams a 3-possession lead. they never look back. rams move to 8-7. 49ers host l.a. in the final week of the regular season.

college hoops, hot, cardinal, visits defending national runners-up, san diego state. they had a lead early. nice lob. putting stanford up 4 late in the first half. the aztec's proved to be too much. under 10 to play. great ball movement. knocking down the triple. making it a 15-point lead. sdsu wins 74-60, stanford is 5-5 on the season. we will wrap up with the 9ers, monday's game will be the first time since 1993 that the two teams tied with the best record in the nfl and playing in week 16 or later. possible and probable super bowl match up. >> i know, we are looking forward to hopefully seeing that in february. >> in vegas. >> on kpix. >> oh, boy, i don't know how we are going to make the early morning live shot but we are going to try. thank you very much. if you saw this on a

school, it might raise arms. a hand grenade. it turns out this was a dispenser for dog poop bags. you think something this size would be kind of hard to hide but someone, somewhere seems to be succeeding

. all right, what is 15 feet high, 300 pounds and invisible? >> i was going to go with shaq but he is visible. >> john cena >> no, we are not getting it. but i do have the answer here. it is the giant santa that is used to stand outside of the alamo post office. someone stole him. that is coal for christmas. no one saw it. if you happen to spot this guy in somebody's yard or perhaps a suspiciously-shaped object under a large sheet, the owner would like to hear from you. >> i had it for, gosh, over 50 years if anybody out there can do that, appreciate it. we really need your help and there is a reward for that. and

please, bring it back to us. we sure would like to have it, thank you. >> wherever santa turns up we are guessing he will not be delivering anything to the people who took him. >> no >> we know the grinch stole christmas but this is the bay area after all. we have the grinch going viral, smashing a car window to steal something until a pack of wild santas came dashing from around the corner to catch him green handed. >> was it shot during santa-con? >> they would not be running in straight lines. >> that is right. zig-zag night. >> yes. >> i will say the missing santa i would love to go to a christmas party and walk into the mansion and there he is. yes. >> a lot of those in alamo. [ laughter ] >> i think he wants it back. any way, so, please, return it
