heading towards us, building up the marine layer. pushing it onshore and keeping us cool. how it changes over the next few days, kind of, if you look at the pressure fields, you see the trough. it is about to get replaced by a big red spinning bull's-eye, center of high pressure building in off of the coast. that will turn off the influence. it will start to crank the temperatures up. you will see it in the seven-day forecast. let's take a look at the microclimate. thursday, when we feel it the most. wednesday, that is when the change happens. tomorrow just like today, marine layer, inland, sunny all day. day time highs climbing to near 90. before cooling back down just a bite by the time we get to next weekend. and the last one to round it out with our interior of the bay. the majority of us are, your numbers in the middle of the 70s. cooling back down towards 70 for the weekend. >> all right, thank you, tonight at 8:00 on the prime
