6:49 am
gusty win along the coast. hard pressed to reach 60 here along the shoreline. it's all due to an upper level low that is situated off the southern california coast. so this will travel up to the north. as it does, it's going to eventually pull up some moisture and that will allow for not only the cooler temperatures, but the possibility of those high-based thunderstorms right on through tomorrow. in the northern sierra that's a possibility, as well, with numbers in the mid-80s today. sacramento, how about 86? down from 106 yesterday. out of the triple digits for you in chico at 95. it will be pretty cloudy in monterey for most of the day. 62 there. 100 in fresno and 75 los angeles. breezy winds downtown today with 62 there. only 70 in san rafael. look for numbers in the mid-70s. six degrees shy. your average in santa rosa. take a look at our east bay valleys. down from 107 in livermore to 82 today. 74 in san jose. so enjoying a sunny, comfortable
