5:48 am
look at that. 11 degrees warmer. santa rosa and napa. lots of stars out there with five degrees warming, mountain view and san jose. but with the official sunrise just five, six minutes away, you can see already dawn is upon us with high pressure building on in. we have the gusty winds across the bay and just along the coast today late in the day. but overall there will be lighter winds and as the high continues to move into the actually the area of low pressure moving into the great basin, that will bring the slight offshore component. with that we are looking at lake county, parts of the east bay hills. wind gusts to up to 40 miles an hour. so definitely a high fire danger throughout much of the day today, tomorrow. the on shore component takes over on tuesday with the relative humidity coming up. much better news. 77 sunnyvale with upper 70s for super tino and on the peninsula more upper 70s. perhaps an 80 degrees not out of
5:49 am

5:52 am
the fifth on this blast by wilin rosario. 10-2, the final. lincecum takes the loss, giving up 6 runs and 7 hits in five innings. it was star trek night at the coliseum. either that or those are raider fans. billy butler drops this bloop single into no man's land. alex gordon scores to make it 1-0. kansas city loaded the bases. but they get out of jam striking out escobar to get out of the inning. the sixth, brandon moss breaks out of a 4 for 30 slump to deep center. it brings home coco crisp. the a's edge 2-1. he gets the win snapping a personal five-game losing streak. that's it for sports. i'm rick kwan. have a great day. >> up next, the face-to-face
