56 in san francisco. few clouds out there throughout the morning hours. by this afternoon, sunshine returns. partly sunny and again that fog along the coast. tomorrow we clear things out nicely and looking great for sunday and monday. kind of a cooling trend. the reason we have so much moisture streaming in our area. area of low pressure off to the pacific combined with high pressure pumping in the subtropical moisture. we have some decent showers further to the east, lake tahoe, north shore picked up a lot of rain, incline village, they saw about an inch of rain in an hour. look out for thunderstorms there this afternoon. i don't think we'll see much in terms of precipitation. just a few clouds and fog along the coast. temperatures in the upper 80s inland. talking about 70s in richmond. san francisco today about 63

degrees. should be great day to get out along the embarcadero, go down to the wharf. headed out to to monterey bay. watsonville, 71 degrees. accu-weather seven-day forecast, kind of a clearing trend here. few clouds today but by tomorrow drier air comes our way and we'll see temperatures kind of in the 70s, upper 70s in the bay. 90s inland sunday and monday. tuesday and wednesday we cool things off nicely. upper 80s and stay in the 60s along the coast. just last week we were talking about hundreds all over the place inland. that will be history. good news, cooling things off. >> terry: one event, 18th annual mut strut. it's at park 11:00, animal demonstrations. a lot of barking going on. spca decided to put that on. >> get out there.

for the light to go on. they are sitting there. i feel like, what should i be doing? i'm getting adjusted to having a studio audience. also just having an hour show where i'm the only person on the today show. i had colleagues who i worked with every single day. on the evening news it was 22 minutes but it was structured. it was very little cross talk with the correspondents. this is a whole hour. just to figure it on how much i can get in and i wanted to be packed with information. so it's challenging because you still have to pick the things that i are willing to leave out. 44 minutes is also slightly difficult. >> reporter: the idea you are going to stay with one subject per show or mixing this up or still a work in progress? >> i think the answer is "c", a work in progress but i think the

show will be as long as the subject or individual requires. you know, if hillary clinton wants to come in and talk about her experiences as secretary of state i'm not going to be like, coming up next, whatever, obviously she has plenty to talk about. some topics and some interviews that can be done well and in less time. i think it's going to be dictated by the topic and person who is going to be on that particular show. sometimes we'll have two segments, sometimes we'll have three different subjects. i think we'll see how it plays out. >> terry: katie, debuts september 10th. the show will air weekdays at 3:00 p.m. coming up next, a pair of new arrivals being celebrated in china, why researchers have had to step in to save one of

that time. typically they abandon the second born. they eventually will be released into the wild. so if you are thinking about adopting one, forget it folks. they are going into the wild. >> clouds out this morning. fog along the coast. it will give away to sunshine this afternoon. few sprinkles. i think we're done with that as the system moves on out. tomorrow will be beautiful, lots of sunshine and temperatures stay in the 70s. cooling off inland. 80s by the middle part of the week. >> terry: great having you here this morning. thanks for joining us. next newscast is at 5:00 this evening. download our new alarm clock app for your iphone. wake up to traffic and weather right on your phone. the free news alarm clock
