or close to it. so they're stormtracker 4. you can see that marine layer is kind of hanging out. and as we zoom out here, you can take a look at the bigger picture and you see the high pressures moved over towards where the 4 corners are. so as that moves away, we start to get cooler. we start to get that marine layer back in and that changes everything. and you can see as we get into the weekend just inland, you know, low 80's instead of triple digit heat. but we do start to warm up again as another ridge of high pressure built for next week. so it's not quite as extreme, but still it s going to be a warm one as we roll into monday, tuesday, wednesday. thank you. kyla. there's a new restaurant in san francisco that just opened its doors nearly a week after thieves got away with $15,000 worth of and equipment. >> kron four's less. the good has the update. nearly a week ago as the pack sf was set to open its doors as one of the newest restaurant in hayes valley. that was until themes broken hours before the opening, stealing thousands of dollars worth of alcohol and
