the west coast again this week, california, oregon and washington. traditionally democratic states, but they now have races in play. david curly, abc news, washington. >> obama's stop in california begins in the bay area on thursday with a party fundraiser followed by a los angeles campaign rally with attorney general jerry brown and senator barbara boxer at usc. then on sunday mrs. obama will be in the bay area before traveling to los angeles for senator boxer's fundraiser. and tomorrow is the last day to register to vote in the november 2nd election. and it is the last day to change your registration information before the upcoming vote. in san francisco, the department of elections will accept registration forms in person until 8:00 p.m. on monday. if you send it in the mail it needs to be post, mad by tomorrow. -- postmarked by tomorrow. one man was stabbed and another beaten during the

for our monday, and then this dry weather pattern will hold through about midweek. after that though we may see more rain move across the bay area. lows tonight in the north bay, you will see some of the clearing in the mid to upper 40s. chilly there. otherwise, look for overnight temperatures in the mid to low 50s across the bay area. check out live doppler 7hd. you can see what i'm talking about here. the low is here, and we talk about the counter clockwise motion. you can clearly see the wrap around moisture starting to move mainly in the north bay. down to petaluma and even novato is picking up some rain. this has moved through american canyon and vallejo. we will go ahead and spin it again, and you can get a sense of where all of this is pushing. it is moving from east to west and it is moving to mill valley and head back over the golden gate bridge. it was the next 15 to 20 minutes. there is a lower pressure off the coast, and it is moving to the south of the bay area. but once again you can see the

wrap around moisture. as this low treks to the south, all of this moisture will push to the south. expect the clearing throughout the course of tonight. you can see as we head through the evening, as the low pushes to the south of us, we will start to see breaks in the overcast. definitely tomorrow morning probably some fog for the early-morning commute. and then by tomorrow afternoon , we will definitely see the clearing as the low exits the area. get ready for plenty of sunshine for your monday. here is a look at your highs for monday. with more sun, the temperatures will come up. 70 for san jose. 69 for santa clara. at the coast, half moon bay, morning fog and a partial afternoon clearing. 59 degrees there. menlo park, 66, 69 for palo alto. san francisco, 64 degrees. in the north bay, that's when we will see a little more sunshine, warmer temperatures. santa rosa 74. sonoma 74. novato 73. vallejo 70.

the leukemia and lymphoma society. giants' outfielder cody ross hit his third homerun of the nlcs, but he didn't get any help. shu is coming up to tell us about it.

you know it's bad when the press asks if you'd take a lie detector test. meg whitman didn't tell the truth about not voting or about how long she lived in california. she got caught in insider deals at goldman sachs. she changed her story about physically abusing an employee. she campaigned as tough as nails on immigration knowing her housekeeper of 9 years was undocumented. her tv ads have been condemned as false and misleading.

and even her hometown newspaper said meg whitman has demonstrated "a loose relationship with the truth"

cody ross was on fire tonight. >> we were watching it, and we thought it was a replay of his first two homeruns last night. he hit more tonight, but it wasn't enough. the phillies show the giants why they won national back to back titles as oswalt evened the series at a game apiece. giants had high hopes to come home with a 2-0 series lead. but sanchez was a bit out of sorts. 1-0 philly. bruce bochy and not happy with that call. but sanchez settled down. he gets worth swinging. one of seven k's. still 1-0 and cody ross is super human for the second straight night. he breaks up a no hitter. his third in two games.

the game tied at one. we go bottom of seven. sanchez out of the game. ramone ramirez gives up a single to paw plan co. -- p li anco. he runs through the sopa sign and beats the throw -- the stop sign at home. the alameda native drives one off the wall and he clears the bases to make it 6-1. and that was more than enough for oswalt. phillies even the series at one apiece with a 6-1 victory. >> you know, we gave them some extra outs and it wasn't a clean game for us. you have to play your best ball to beat this team. we were a little off. >> you don't celebrate until you win four games. you know, once we get to that point, you can look back and say that was a big hit. but for now, you know, it just gave us a little breathing room. >> first game in the series that wasn't a one-run game. games three, four, five are tuesday, wednesday and thursday at at&t mark park.

we did have a reason to celebrate. the 40

all right, as i said we had something to cheer about in san francisco. a little nfl football, the

battle of the bay. the niners were looking for their first win and the raiders were looking to go 3 and 3. it was ugly until the second half. jason campbell in for injured grad cow ski. you run the reverse. the wet surface field everybody. 43 yards down the sideline and set up janikowski's second field goal. the niners breakthrough. deep over the middle and crabtree with a great catch. 49ers on top 10-6. the fourth quarter and 10-9, niners. gore breaks free. he ran for 149 yards on the day. this his longest of the season. down to the raider 15, and the niners are in business. it sets up this two plays later. he finds a wide open vernon davis. 17 yards and niners up 17-9.

campbell was 8 for 21 with 83 yards and two picks. his second on third and three. use your hands. the raiders with just 179 yards in total offense. the niners get their first win of the season, 17-9. >> it does feel great. at the same time, it is the first -- we are one and five. but it does feel good. >> you have the void in the offense, but he is staying stropg and the offense is staying strong. they continue to play and give them a chance. >> it is tough. at the same time, we believe. >> we didn't too much with the ball. we lost the game. >> niners head to charlotte and then after the charlotte game they go to play denver.

so they are on the road for two weeks. the pga tour in the south and he had an eagle in all four rounds. the final eagle won the tournament. rocco entered the round with a three-stroke lead. here is his second shot from 116 yards. look at this. his fourth eagle in as many days. that eagle won the tournament for rocco at 15 under. his first pga tour victory. he is ranked 450th in the world since 2002. and in danville, the final round play of the cvs pharmacy. 23-year-old rookie of spain. the long iron and had just enough carry to cross the hazard. it stops within 15 feet. she drops to 15 under. she get a one-stroke victory.

her first lpga tour title and had both events in the bay area. the giants and phillies workout tomorrow at at&t park. check in at 6:00 for a preview. it is coal hamills against matt cane. and the 7-game series is a lot different animal than a five-game. the giants did what they needed to do. they won one in philly and come back one and one. >> and cody ross always hits the inside pitch. we'll see if he can do it again. that's it,t,t,t,t,t,t,t,t,t,t,t,
