more and more compressed throughout the overnight hours and that will lead to a quicker burn off. we are looking at clear skies in san jose but the fog does extent into the east bay and it will continue to burn back a little bit earlier today and that will bring somewhat of warming in our inland valleys. so we are talking about more sunshine in the city. in fact, how about partly cloudy to mostly sunny skies later on, but it still will be cool downtown. 50s to start out. near 60 inland under a partly cloudy sky. more sunshine today with numbers coming up a few degrees. we will see if this warming trend is going to last a little bit later. carolyn. >> thank you, lisa. this morning an estimated 25,000 people will gather in golden gate park for the anew a.i.d.s. walk san francisco. since 1987 the event has raised more than $77 million. every day in san francisco roughly two more people are infected and rates of new cases are rising among gay and

some sunshine, but mostly sunny case in san francisco today, although the temperatures still a little cool there but a little warm are in our inland valleys. but, wow, tomorrow as much as ten to pitch -- fifteen degrees cooler. we have a trough, there's one today that will work to bring out clearing sooner and provide a wind shift. it's an off-shore push. but this one here is going to take its place come tomorrow, and that brings our big, big cool down. so starting out pretty much like we saw yesterday, although the marine layer continues to sink and become confined to the coast. so immediate 50s right at the shoreline. others 60 in the city with temperatures approaching near 80 in parts of santa clara really. look at the 80s, yesterday they were way out into the sacramento valley, and today it should be a little warmer. we have the surface winds, the on-shore flow not as strong as

yesterday but then tomorrow we are talking about not only some gusty winds, but slower clearing and the marine layer once again back up to over 2,000 feet. today some of the cooling not quite making it into the valley. a little warmer there. upper 80s in sacramento, how about 95 today. 78 in los angeles and back home we will be looking at cloudy skies but then throughout the later morning hours clearing. so the a.i.d.s. walk finishing up in sharon meadow looking for some sunshine. cool, though, low 60s, but at least it will be a little brighter out there. in terms of the rest of the temperatures around the bay, topping out into the lower 70s for oakland today. not bad. 27 in san mateo. look at the mid-and upper 80s returning out toward brentwood. 82 in san jose. that's a warmup for you with 65 in the city. 72 in santa cruz today with more sunshine around the monterey bay. and if you are headed into the city, we will look for the skies to continue to clear.

cool, though, with sunshine. 1:05 game time. we will look for the numbers to really bottom out tomorrow and tuesday and slowly begin to warm up, maybe a few extra clouds by the end of the work week. we are on the two, three-day period of up and down, up and down. >> i call it roller coaster weather. thank you, lisa. let's check out sports. this afternoon matt cain starts for the giants, going for the sweep over the astros. the same team he pitched a perfect game against last month. last night the giants moved into first place after a dramatic walk-off victory. rick kwan has the highlights in this morning's sports. >> good morning. after two rough outings all eyes were on tim lincecum last night as he took the mound against huston. timmy had his fastball working but keep in mine the astros have the worst record in the majors. lincecum threw 8 shutout innings, allowing 5 hits and striking out a season-high 11.

2-zip in the figure. and in comes angel per gallon began. but with two out, casilla gives up the double and scott moore makes it 2-1. next batter, chris snyder, should be the final out but the ball gets away from sanchez. his throw to first is wide and meanwhile a hustling maxwell slides home and just like that the game is tied. it stayed that way until the twelfth. with two on sanchez gets his fourth hit of the game. pablo sandoval rounds third and san francisco wins 3-2. the giants hope to sweep later today. before the a's took on the twins, jonny gomes got an autograph from rod carew. the three-run blast made it 4-0 in the first. then cespedes drilled it to right center. gone. his tenth of the year made it 6-0. everything seemed to be going the a's away. the perfect bunt and the throw

needs. >> under his measure only new construction could qualify to keep owners of existing buildings from chopping their units into small spaces. that's alleviated the initial fierce of the community housing partnership, a nonprofit that builds apartments for no income and formerly homeless. >> i think the new market rate developer, whether they chews to build a 220 square feet or they want to build at 1,000 square feet, if they think they have a market and can get the new construction in the height, bulk and density of the parcel, we should allow them to do it. >> if the supervisors approve the measure, it will bring the city in line with state law which already allows for the small sized. coming up, the local invention designed for homeland security. how it could be used by doctors to get lab results for you in minutes. and here is a live look showing you the beautiful lights on the bay bridge.

>> yeah. >> hopefully you will like the weather a little better today. it's been awfully cool out there, especially if you have been around the bay or in the city. inland not too hard to take. here's the look from the high definition emeryville camera. we have the fog as usual this morning but it's not as extensive. it's about 500, 600 feet lower and that will allow for the clearing a little bit sooner. still our on-shore flow, live doppler 7 hd shows some of the low cloudiness from the coastline, marin, sonoma, napa and it extends farther south along the peninsula but not as far as yesterday. san jose is clear. and also with concord clear skies. livermore cloudy, 57. it's 52 in fremont. good morning half moon bay. 6-mile visibility along the short line. so it is a little bit better in spots. so we have some drizzle this morning. you may need the wipers as you
