day today and bringing us a bit of a cool down. 48 in napa right now with 43 degrees in santa rosa. so we are looking at cooler conditions this morning. 53 in san rafael with mid-50s in concord. so overall the temperatures this morning, with some cloud cover and a slightly cooler air mass, have come down anywhere from a deto six degrees. today we will add a stronger sea breeze. the numbers around the bay taking a bit of a hit. so low clouds this morning. we will see them pushing to the east bay, perhaps along the peninsula, and by 9:00, 10:00, perhaps some sunshine, but the breeze will pick up throughout the afternoon. then by the time we get on the back side of this system, come tuesday, we will look for a wind shift and that will bring warmer temperatures, especially inland, but more sunshine at our coast. so a ridge of high pressure brought the warmth the past couple of days. it's still with us, but we are going to feel the influence of this system to the north and

west of us. and not only will it bring the cooler sea breeze, the relative humidity is pretty good around the bay area, but the gusty winds will bring down the relative humidity in the sierra nevada, and with that flow around the actual area of pressure, we are bringing up moisture and that will allow the chance again of isolated thunderstorms from the sierra down to the desert. the numbers here definitely on the warm side but with the possibility of thunderstorms, gusty winds, low relative humidity, red flag warning in effect until about 8:00 tonight. so watch out for that for northeastern california, northwestern nevada. and, of course, even though our relative humidity is okay around here, i always worry about that, especially into next week when the numbers warm. south of us we are looking at the possibility of strong rip currents around the monterey bay. later on this afternoon we have a giants game. temperatures will be dropping through the 60s. bring the jacket.

63 for 3:00, 4:00 high temperature today. game time will be a little bit cooler than that, upper 50s. 68 in oakland. look for a low 60s to return. but with the breeze well out to the delta, 78 in concord with 74 in vallejo. numbers in the low 80s for morgan hill. 64 monterey. here the accuweather seven-day forecast. we are bringing down the temperatures today and tomorrow just a subtle change. we will still have that breeze check up in the afternoon and then that begins to back off on tuesday. the warmer weather, low to mid-90s, comes in the metal of the week and stays with us until the end of the week. up and down. >> this is usually our hottest month of the year. >> it's just getting started. >> what's up? >> just getting started. >> thanks, lisa. a california couple plans to sue american airlines for discrimination after their 16-year-old son with downs syndrome was not allowed on a plane. it happened a week ago today. the teen was denied to board a

new york to los angeles flight. the air lean claims the boy was agitated and running around the gate area. the dad said american still hasn't contacted the family. >> first of all, to the american airline response, they are such chickens. they can pick up the phone and call me. they could e-mail me. but i haven't heard from them directly. so all i know is what people tell me they said. well, american airlines says the family should expect to hear from them soon, but that their actions were in compliance with the air carrier access act. legal experts say it's going to be pretty tough to prove american refused to let the boy fly because of his condition because airlines have the legal right to decide who boards their planes. 7 on your side's michael finney has heard just about every complaint possible about gift cards, but here's one each he has never heard before. it's the case of the mystery gift card.

doug williams bought his friend a gift card for the movies. here it is. a little beat up. but there on the second line you can see it says century theaters. >> so he brought me over here last week to see the expendables 2, which was just released and they refused to take the card. she said we are no longer a century theater. >> no longer? look at the seen out front next to the street. look at the sign on the building. >> sure looks like a century theater. >> that's what he said. it says century 21 on the outside and the ticket stub said century 21 and she still refused to take it. she said we are no longer century theaters. >> but look closer and on the bottom of this sign it says wind chester theater. and look through the ticket window. back against the wall there's another sign and it says winchester 21, 22 or 23. so i go to the theater next door

and there i find this sign, sin mart gift cards are no longer accepted at winchester theaters 21, 22 and 23. so can i see a manager for mr. information? i'm michael finney from channel 7 news. >> i'm told this guy is a manager but he said only the assistant. he refers me to the manager, who has the day off. so i call the manager this morning, and he refers me to the marketing vp, where i leave a message and haven't yet heard back. i spoke with a cini mart person who said the theaters are indeed separately own and not a part of cinimart. doug didn't expect anything from the theaters, i just wanted consumers to any. >> if you've got these gift cards, even though it says century 21 on the theaters, you can use these gift cards here. kind of a heads-up for the public. >> it was a nice thing for you to do. >> thank you. i think there's a lot of incidences in the past where

people have bought gift cards and been unable to use them, and they are really easy to lose out of your wallet so you want to use them before you lose them. >> he's right. now the good news is the gift cards were just fine and you don't have to go far to use them. here's the seen for the century theater. it's across the street, the santana row, and look back there, a cinimart theater. here's a closer look. it isn't much of an inconvenience as long as you know, and now you do. apparently the century theater is still on the signage because, in part, these are now considered historic buildings. the cinimart buildings are contacting doug. he is going to make sure he is taken care of and happy. and when i make contact with the in chester theaters, i will ask for increased signage so consumers who haven't seen this report will have a better heads-up. i'm michael finney, 7 on your side. coming up, some good, dirty
