lisa, finally seeing something on live doppler 7hd? >> yeah. not only the rain headed our way but also the visibility problems in the form of low clouds and high clouds. so as we take a look at live doppler 7hd this morning, you notice it does look a little different finally. this is the beginning of a cold front, although it's a weak one. it's going to sweep through the bay area, bringing some much, much-needed rain. we do have fog, as well and a mostly cloudy sky to start on out. here's a look at the rain. it is right around fort brague. in the next two hours or owe it should hit santa rosa and points southward. you can see the low clouds there from mt. tam. all things going on this morning. we also have a beach hazard to pass on in a moment. upper 40s in san francisco and

oakland. from our exploratorium camera, very calm bay out there with numbers all in the 40s. warmer with the cloud cover. we had a few upper 30s earlier. right now mid-40s for the delta, concord and livermore. doesn't look likely that you are going to see any rain. we have the list running. light snow is headed toward the sierra nevada. anywhere from a dust to go three or four elevation high-elevation snow at about 6,000 or 7,000 feet. foggy, cloudy with showers on the way. a chance of showers linger throughout the day. temperatures coming back to near normal readings across the bay. mainly in the 50s. it all changes at high pressure builds back strongly from tomorrow into early next week. it will give us a return to offshore flow. high fire deng we're perhaps record warmth, near 70 degrees. but a beach hazard so some very strong waves, high waves works the possibility of rip currents all the way down the coast.

so certainly be careful out there if you are headed to the beach, the surfers, always check the forecast and even next week looking at pretty good swells out there. high pressure will give way just temporarily for the day today as the cold front pushes into the bay area. we are looking at about a tenth inch of rain north of the golden gate and trace amounts elsewhere. here's the timing on the cold front. so at 7:00 notice still to the north of us, but by 9:00, 10:00 it is in the north bay, and by the afternoon it continues to sag southward. maybe on the peninsula a light shower, but looks like into the east bay and the santa clara valley it will wash out. don't look for rain into. and then clear skies. tonight it will be chilly, back into the 30s. but it's really not going to help out with our deficit because we are running so far behind, as much as 15 inches below where we should be. 8.5 inches san francisco and we are under by about 5 inches in

the livermore valley. high temperatures today, even with the snow, into the 40s at lake level. no 70s with the gusty winds and high fire dengner southern california. 59 san mateo, as well as fairfield and 60 in san jose. a quick look at tomorrow's forecast for the 49ers with the 10:00 game. low 50s in charlotte. the accuweather seven day forecast and cooler, chance of light showers. sunny and milder tomorrow but the warmest day is through midweek and dry weather into the end of the week for now. we are hoping that will change. >> thank you, lisa. in sports. warriors are off until wednesday getting much-needed rest. last night the team returned home to face the boston celtics after finishing a grueling seven-day road trip on wednesday. here's larry beil with the highlights in this morning's sports. >> good morning, everybody. after two weeks on the road, the warriors were back home last night against a bad boston team. but golden state obviously tired.

you know what? when in doubt, give it to steph and get out of the way. former butler head coach brad stevens now coaching the celtics. first quarter. david, the outlet to steph, and the rare two-handed jam. who said anything about tired? he made the first five shots and knocked down the corner three. warriors down two at the half. iguodala, such a grit defender. in the passing lane. 22 points. warriors up 14 but squandered it. fifteen seconds left and warriors by two. jeff green scoring on green. green on green. and tied at 97. time for steph. crossover on chris humphreys. 2.1 seconds left warriors by 2. here the celtics fumble it trying to win. gerald wallace jackson it up at the buzzer and misses. the warriors hang on. 99-97. they will now enjoy four deserved days off. new york liberty head coach, bill, scouting the utah-stanford

game. you have to love chiney ogwumike. 30 points. amber orange pushing it up the court, 14 points. coast-to-coast. ogwumike is the story. here is the story actually. first three of the year for chiney. knocks it down. stanford rolls rolls, 87-51. and the 19th ranks golden bears in boulder taking on colorado. the lady buffs. she had 21. they were up 10. cal closed the gap. and he scores. cal up 1. lexi for the win! off the backboard and cal hangs on. nice comeback victory 57-55. the 49ers slight favorites on the road at carolina sunday. the panthers feel disrespected and aim to do something about it. greg hardy, defensive end,

putting it if you don't stop me, i'm going break your quarterback's face. my, my. 49ers had a lot of other broken pieces when is they met in the regular season. no crabtree and davis suffered a concussion. and colin kaepernick had a rough day. they believe it would have been different in the offense was at full strength. >> if crabtree was will and i was there, i think we would have had a stronger -- a better shot at winning the game. i'm not going to just put it on myself, but if crabtree was there along with myself i think our chances would be pretty high. >> i will be in charlotte covering the game. complete coverage, including another edition of "vernon's view" with the tight end sitting down with me on a one-on-one conversation that we will have on sunday night. "vernon's view" only on abc7 news. enjoy the games and question will have all the highlights at
