advisory has expired, still expecting snow snow in the overnight hours and scattered showers, coming up from 5,000 to 7,000 feet tomorrow. so likely see more rain showers than snow showers. look what it looked like from heavenly camera. 8300 feet. it didn't amount to a whole lot but we did have flakes up there. here in the bay area, high definition camera, lovely view, raindrops and mix of everything. if you were caught in one of those showers, briefly could it could have been heavy, trace amounts at .04 and we do have cloud cover out there. highlights, few showers overnight. milder for the holiday weekend and warmer pattern is coming next week. here is the low that brought thus cold weather, 5-15 degrees

cooler than normal. the showers and snow in the sierra but this low is shift offing to the south and east. as it pulls out of here we will see change. here is the computer animation, a couple of showers maybe in the wee hours of the morning, perhaps drizzle in the morning. watch what happens, another piece of energy is going to rotate on the backside of that low. tomorrow in the afternoon, north bay hills, possibly could see an isolated shower or two developing. a realize late chance. i wouldn't reschedule your plans for saturday. it's looking fine for the rest of the holiday weekend. it's going to be milder as higher pressure builds in and temperatures coming up a few degrees for sunday and monday. breezy out in the morning. mid 40s to the low 50s but we're not expecting a windy days that we have been experiencing. lighter winds especially sunday and monday. breezy tomorrow afternoon. we'll call it partly cloudy.

>> terry: party is over for

bachelorettes at a bar famous for hosting them. they say it's the best bar but so popular with the straight community they host several bachelorette parties. owner says no more and most patrons seem to agree. >> i think it's important for the community to support the rights of gay community, as well. >> i love straight ladies. i love gay men. i wish we could all love each other. >> the owner says he is hoping to start a national movement with it. >> here is another reason to think twice before jumping out of an airplane. a woman skydiving almost slips out of the harness. they hurdle toward earth at 125. they are in a panic to save her. they managed to land but not hurt.

it happened about a year ago but the video just hit the internet. faa is investigating. can you imagine how terrifying she was? >> good reason never to do that. [ laughter ] >> that was awful. >> that is frightening. >> i have a sports version. tim lincecum is his own free fall. giants searching for answers.

good evening, it's now officially panic time. tim lincecum is down to a vulnerable pitcher. more questions. he is trying to stay focused and locked in on every pitch. two out single and one scores. 2-0 giants. crawford is cut down on the play. he had gone 50 innings without allowing a homer.

and who put that up? still up 2-1 in the fifth. josh johnson, 3-1 giants, and one bad inning, chris coghlan, he was hitting .104. he gave up six runs and 2-5. >> runner on for cabrera, ends it. giants lose 7-6. >> a's open with the evil empire the new york yankees and nick swisher leaving his mark. reggie jackson, part of the yankees front office, this is $180 million, mark was slumping but two-run jack to the right. a's get on on in the fourth. his 12th homer of the year, 3-1 game. you are not going to out muscle the bronx bombers.

robinson, high and deep and aloha, solo jack, three batters later, swisher's turn, a laser for a two-run bomb. yankees with 33 in the house, they win it. >> manny ramirez, first inning, he is hitting .250 at a river cat. he is eligible to join the a's and the need his bat. sometimes honesty is not the best policy, alex smith and panthers has taken offense, smith says it's all about wins but alex should have better numbers in 2012. is he had stopped there with the comments then he mentioned newton.

>> to the honest truth i couldn't care less. i think that is totally overblown stat because if you are losing games you are like the carolina panthers. you are not winning though. >> in response, carolina tweeted amex lek smith, junior stats would have gotten you cut. that is after a 13-3 year. in case you are wondering the 49ers and panthers do not meet each other. that is fortunate after this. >> thanks for joining us. we continue tomorrow morning starting at 5:00. we're available online and facebook and twitter. >> have a great weekend.
