in fact, we've had some higher clouds, but we will be looking at things changing throughout the day today. in fact coming up a few degrees to near 90 in our warmest inland valleys and very little fog to speak of. we will be look at temperatures around the bay today to warm up to near average readings. that's always a good thing if you like it warm and sunny. but, you know, we talked about the flip side of that where they have had record heat in the sierra nevada. 355 livermore. it's 41 half moon bay. 14 degrees cooler here. once again, that cool pocket of air in the north bay in santa rosa. so our forecast, high clouds now and again, but patchy fog will be confined to the shoreline. fall arrives 7:49 with a mild to warm weekend with very few changes into the second half of the weekend. we saw all the high clouds yesterday and that's due to a combination of high pressure situated over the rockies and the flow over the high.

nice weather ahead if you like it sunny and on the warm side. otherwise, it has been awfully dry across the state. we are looking once again at live doppler 7 hd that usually shows more in the way of low clouds. high clouds yesterday. things are really quiet out there except for the cool air. 13 or 14 degrees cooler than average around half moon day. 44 santa rosa. and oakland one of the warmer spot, mid-50s. so the forecast, a few high clouds here and there. otherwise mostly sunny and the fog confined just a few patches along the san mateo coast. the fall does arrive at 7:49. it will be mild to warm all weekend long. we have one feature that will change things up a little bit tomorrow. yesterday a lot of high clouds moving up from the south. and that's because we are positioned in between systems. high pressure over the rockies with that clockwise flow and low pressure to the north and west of us bringing up some of this moisture. that has allowed for a few high

clouds. but what's going to happen is the low will continue to move straight east from oregon. the oregon coast. so that will allow for just very subtle influence tomorrow with temperatures coming down just a little bit. today we could reach 90 in the try valley, and tomorrow, probably about mid-to upper 80s and more of an on shore push. but the winds, they will be out of the west today at our beaches. so it will stay nice and tempered here with low 70s. broke a yesterday in reno at 91 degrees. the old record at 90 in 2011 last year. so it's been very dry and no offshore wind vent yet. but, boy, temperatures are very warm out there this afternoon. 85 in campbell with 83 in cupertino. look for 75 on the peninsula with low 60s. nice day for pacifica. 68 downtown. a little cool. we should see about 70 in the city for this time of year. but we've got low to mid-80s

from sonoma to calistoga and low 90s cloverdale and clear lake. fremont, you are warming up to 80 today with low 90s returning here for danville and fairfield today. and down by the monterey bay, the jazz festival at 65. but it's going to be warm east of there. the accuweather seven-day forecast, we will bring the numbers down a few degrees tomorrow. they go up a few on monday. the winds remain pretty light and slightly cooler air midweek and next weekend rounds out september. it should start to feel like fall around here but this is fall in september in the bay area. do you know that? >> yeah, it's nice. lisa, thanks a lot. generators are an easy way to keep the lights on during a blackout but there are several options to choose from. michael finney takes a look at the choices and the one you need to use with caution. >> more and more people like vincent are convinced it's worth buying a power generator. >> once you lose power the first

time for any period of time, you don't need any reasons to get a generator. you are going to get one. >> but which one? consumer reports just tested 14 power generators ranging in price from around $700 to more than $3,000. some are portable, while others are stationary. consumer reports tests them by hooking them up to small appliances, a water pump and lights. testers found that with portable generators, the run time depends on the type of fuel they use. >> we found most gasoline models were pretty much the same, lasting anywhere from 8 to 10 hours, depending on your power demands. however, when we looked at propane models, they went through a tank of propane in about four to six hours. >> whichever you use, be aware you will need plenty of fuel on hand and you will need a transfer switch to safely hook up the generator. it can run up to $900. stationary generators are more convenient. they run on natural gas or a large tank of propane and start automatically in a power outage. >> if you want to power your whole house, a large stationary

generator would be better because they power things like your stove, your drier, your essential ac systems and stuff like that. >> among stationary generators, consumer reports saying that the core power, generac 5837, a best buy. it cost $1,800, plus installation. for far less, consumer reports recommends a portable generac model gp 5500 that will keep your basic necessities going for $670. if you use a portable generator, consumer reports has this important caution. more than 100 people a year die from the carbon monoxide produced by portable generators and similar equipment. to be safe, never run a generator inside a garage or shed or even near them. always run it as far as possible from your house. ideally at least 10 to 15 feet and away from any windows or doors. i'm michael finney, 7 on your side. >> coming up next, the new device that puts 3d images in the palm of your hand.
