a separate monitor surrounding nerves to make sure there is no contact. >> we need to place them across the joints. >> once the rods are set, he passes the triangle-shaped io place. as seen in the animation provided by the manufacturer, three individual implants will ultimately stabilize the joint, relieving pressure on the nerve. technically we are done. finally the team makes one last check to make sure there is no contact with any surrounding nerves. he said about half the patients are able to return home the same day, and others require several days in the hospital for the initial recovery. the goal is to enable a patient to pretty much forget about it. because the best joint is the free joint. >> for jason the surgery has been followed by an intense regimen. physical therapy, but the results, he says, has been life-changing. >> it's been fantastic. no pain. i know it's early, but my quality of life, that's the first thing i noticed immediately.

6:19 am
officially up at 5:56. now we are lacking at the temperatures beginning to warm quicker than yesterday. so as high pressure builds in, we have low pressure diving down into the great basin and that's strengthening the high. as that happens the winds will pick up later on today into the evening hours. so the northwest winds getting a little breezy throughout the day, then they will shift briefly to the north. could get up to 40 miles an hour. higher elevations of the north bay and east bay hills. fire danger becomes a concern right on through tomorrow. so be careful throughout the day today and even though we have that on shore push on tuesday, still the hills are really dry out there. 82 morgan hill. 77 sunnyvale today. look at the 60s returning along the coast. that's where you go to beat the heat. 78 in palo alto. 70 downtown today. so about five to six degrees of warming in san francisco. numbers coming up another seven degrees here to the mid-80s for sonoma.

6:26 am
earlier. he tracked down the man who made it and after the cash changed hands, the circle closed. almost, anyway. because there is one other twist to the dragon. that day of the riot in 1978 would have been the dragon's first time on stage. it never happened until last week. ♪ >> that's pete sears on stage at bottle rock in napa. a debut 35 years delayed. >> an old friend. >> another story for that one room in castle. from san rafael, wayne freedman, abc7 news. >> fantastic story. we have a lot more to come in our next half-hour, including president obama's latest trip to the bay area. we will tell you when he will be in town and who is on the guest list to see him. also, their season may be over, but the celebrations live on. the city inviting warriors fans over for a job well done party. >> plus we are just 30 minutes from the start of bay to breakers, the quintessential

6:51 am
this time of the year, being the better team out there doesn't do you any good. you have to win on the scoreboard. >> you are never really, really in trouble until you lose your first game at home. it's a big win. i thought everybody elevated their game. i thought our game management at that point of the night is as good as it's been all year. >> before the giants took on the rockies, the manager bruce bochy called a rare meeting to talk about the players' sloppy play of late. it didn't help. san francisco made three more errors last night. this young lead was having a good time at coors field. the same could not be said for tim lincecum. he gets to this dribbler off the bat of jeff rutledge, but then throws the ball away. how bad was it for timmy? he falls down just trying to make a pitch. only his pride was hurt. still in the fourth rockies pitcher tyler chetwood singles up the minute. goes off lincecum's leg into center. make it 4-1. colorado had two more runs in the fifth on this blast by wilin rosario. 10-2, the final.
