11:13 pm
the camera to pick it up. most of the shooting stars you will see tonight are faint. you have to have clear skies. dark skies and no fog. two out of three is not bad. anytime you see a streak of light it is actually a tiny space rock and speaking of that we begin at a rock shop. >> reporter: meet garcia. >> when i purchased the shop i named it after my wife. >> inside quite the collection. >> this right here is a fossil. this is floor right. >> that you know about rocks before getting the shop? >> no. >> he has owned it for three years. >> beautiful, i love the color. >> all of these are rocks that formed in the earth. >> this is my personal
11:14 pm
favorite. >> reporter: there are also rocks that fell from the sky. >> a meteor right survives its plunge from space to earth sometimes with a bang but most of the time they burn up in the sky. they make for a great light show like this weekends your shower. >> it is one of the best showers in the year. >> astronomer scott explains what the earth is running into over the weekend is debris left behind by a comet, no bigger than grains of sand slamming into earth at 130 thousand miles per hour. >> as they do that they heat up the air and it glows and what we see is a streak of light across the sky. the best thing to do is look after midnight when the sky will be as dark as
11:15 pm
possible. you could see as many as 100 per hour which is almost 2-3 per minute. >> you do not want binoculars or a telescope this is a democratic phenomenon. everybody can enjoy it. >> you still come out and take a look yourself? >> absolutely i will grab neighbors whether they want to or not. >> these are amazing remnants of the beginning of the solar system. it is one of the reasons why astronomers still get excited. if you can find a meteor right you are holding a piece of the history of the solar system. >> i do want to get a meteor right one of these days. >> that will cost you some money. >> the rock shop, his wife wanted to get him out of the house. it is the business he does on the side. he is a smart man. >> that is one way to do it.
11:16 pm
>> despite the fact we are approaching the peak of the meteor shower you do not have encouraging news. >> nobody in san francisco will see it. it is so foggy we can barely see the bridge behind us. if you want to take a drive i suggest you do so. i will take a drive, it is the most active meteor shower of the year. if you have never seen a shooting star and you want to go on top of a mountain. go someplace like black mountain. a beautiful sunset tonight, the colors were spectacular. it did not take long for the fog to fill in the valley. on top of the valley locations and further inland you will see clear skies. there is upper-level cloud coverage. there will be more sporadic and that is our best chance to see some sort of meteor action. it
11:17 pm
will not be the greatest night for it in the bay area but it will not be terrible. it could be worse. temperatures in the 50s across the bay area. better conditions after 11:30 pm. after the moon sets. get away from the city lights. let's look at what it will be like outside at 2:00 in the morning. we will see the clouds continuing to make their way into the area and fill into the santa clara valley. we are already seeing the clouds fill in and continuing to remain thick. your best case scenario, i think i will go further north. on the top of maybe mount tam your head could be above the clouds and you could see clear conditions. if you want to guarantee you will see some activity head further inland. away from the clouds and the influence of the onshore flow and you will see more of the comfortable heat.
11:18 pm
temperatures will be in the 60s further inland. upper 50s thanks to the cloud coverage acting like a jacket. we also continue to see the area of low pressure that brought us a cooldown today. the low pressure system is picking up wind along the coastal communities. bringing temperatures 5-10 degrees cooler. it will stick around before the pictures moderate out by the latter parts. this pattern will continue over the next 6-10 days. parts of the u.s. will be dealing with a heat wave, on the west coast we will be lucky when it comes to the heat. look at the bull's-eye of blue. we will see cooler than average conditions. good news for anybody that wants to get out and about, enjoy a little more comfortable heat. temperatures in the mid to lower 80s. 70s
11:19 pm
down into the santa clara valley. low 80s at morgan hill but it depends on where you are located. anyway the next seven days makes my job easier. there is not much transitioning. low 80s tomorrow, very seasonable. even along the bay area communities. not much changes. we will be in the 60s tomorrow afternoon and 70s the next day. over all not shabby weather for anybody that wants to get out and about. will not be the greatest weather for stargazing unless you want to head further inland and take a drive maybe. >> i did that when i was a kid. >> it is way past his bedtime. >> i am such a science geek and i have my telescope ready to go
11:20 pm
at home. >> take some video and i will use it. san francisco is launching a ambitious plan to make the streets safer. the huge roadblock standing in the way when we come back. a reason to stick around for game day bottom of the hour. the tight end george. the linebacker fred warner. giants great madison. sit back, enjoy us

san francisco transit killed plans to install a bike lane in chinatown because of objections from the community. >> it was part of a 10 year goal to make the streets safer and connected four more alternative modes of transportation. a survey found 75% of residents use bicycles or scooters daily. 80% said they would take alternate forms if streets were safer. chinatown streets are uniquely
11:24 pm
challenging due to the trucks that unload on the street and more people are on the sidewalks than any other neighborhood in the city. >> that is our goal, to make everybody believe they can reasonably get around with family without driving. >> while many merchants would love to see safer sidewalks, others want assurances before plans are put into place. >> a bike lane to chinatown would be a plus. it relieves some of the congestion. >> officials will host a listening tour for each district across the city. for a list of times and locations of
