around. maybe a sprinkle here or there. but as we check out live doppler 7hd this morning, more clouds than anything in the way of green on the screen probably later on today. we did have an isolated shower earlier this morning toward concord. and the atmosphere is looking a little bit more moist through throughout the afternoon and into labor day. we will bring the chance and a slight chance, about a 20%. i think the better chance east and south bay. here's a look from the kgo roof camera. you notice outside we have partly cloudy skies. a cool 57 san francisco. 62 in oakland. good morning los gatos. 61 and it's 57 half moon bay. another shot you can see the fog from our eastern hills camera. there is a marine layer that will allow for the cooler temperatures, a stronger sea breeze today. foggy in santa rosa at 54, napa at 58. 63 in fairfield with a southwest wind up to 21 miles an hour. sutro camera, san francisco

today should be a little bit cooler underneath the partly cloudy sky. the coastal fog is with us and you may run into a little bit of mist and drizzle along the shoreline throughout the take today. a slight chance of showers in the forecast for sunday and into labor day. more than anything probably just some sprinkles. so the flow around an area of high pressure to the east of us bringing up the subtropical moisture and there's a system offshore that provides the energy or the lift that could also bring us the sprinkles and light showers. so you will notice the sierra nevada the rim fire and the american fire report not only lightning but some wet weather this morning. the wet weather is the good news. the lightning, no. more cloud cover east bay. south bay and the north bay partly cloudy skies. but the fog will be with us and the onshore flow bringing the west wind 10 to 20 americans. feeling also a little more humid out there with the subtropical moisture. so here we are midnight and you will notice the cloud cover keeping us mild through the overnight hours in the 60s.
