we will let you know if there's any in the seven-day forecast. scientists at lawrence livermore national laboratory have taken steps to make energy the same way the sun does. jonathan bloom explains what they have managed to do at a firehouse in livermore, and what may be the world's oldest working light bulb. it it uses just 4 watts. how ironic up the street is the 500 trillion-watt light. most powerful laser in the world. it's the national ignition facility. the size of three football fields. all to focus a giant wallop of energy on one tiny spot. >> we are basically recreating a small piece of the sun inside the laboratory, which has never been done before. >> the sun creates energy through nuclear fusion, squeezing atoms together until they merge into one, giving off a massive heat. fusion powers

the warp drive on the starship enterprise. >> if we go in there we will die. the radiation will kill us. this scene from the latest star trek was filmed here at the livermore lab. in reality the inside looks like this. dozens of laser lenses. it squeezes the tiny pellet of hydrogen fuel until the atoms start to combine. by carefully adjusting the pattern of this pulse light, scientists have gotten the fuel to start heating itself. you can call it smoldering, the smoke that comes before fire. >> the fusion. >> the achievement is the major step toward the ultimate goal of. the national ignition facility, which is ignition. the nuclear equivalent of getting the fuel to catch fire so it burns on its own. right now it's giving out about twice the amount of energy put into it. but only a tiny amount is reacting. ignition, the holy grail, is the chain reaction. >> it will run away and turn it

into energy. energy equal to pounds of burning coal. from a pellet the size of where you know pixel on your tv. >> it would be an incredible long-term solution to our energy needs. >> at the livermore national lab, jonathan boom, abc7 news. >> we are trying to conserve energy by trading the lights in our studio to l.e.d.es. which is why lisa argen is on the roof now to bring you the accuweather forecast. >> and not a bad day to be up here, carolyn. the sun is nice and warm. in the 50s. the system we had yesterday is pretty unremarkable but there were showers this morning. a couple hundredth in the santa clara valley, the santa cruz mountains. and overall just about a tenth inch picked up in watsonville and less around the bay. here's the look at live doppler 7hd. very quiet. everything is wrapping up in the sierra nevada. a couple of inches was received there overnight. right now it's 55 in redwood city with 57 half moon bay.

low 50s downtown. across the bay, 55 in oakland and from our sutro tower camera you can see it's nice and clear. a little hazy where the fog is still lingering around santa rosa. the cool spot 45. livermore has cleared on out, in the low 50s, as well as concord with 54 in vacaville. so the winds ever calm and tonight will be another chilly night perhaps with some fog. but overall as we look at our forecast highlights for the next several days, it is the same old, same old with sunshine today, sunshine tomorrow for president's day and by tuesday maybe only a few areas of light sprinkles. we will show you why in just a mommy. and then beyond that it is looking dry and even warmer than average. the pacific satellite picture shows the storm track well to the north right now and our system has pushed well out of the bay. but in the next couple of days there is a system that wants to flirt with northern california, but this is what happens.

we will see the sun tomorrow, a few more clouds on tuesday, and then by tuesday evening ukiah and cloverdale, perhaps a few light sprinkles and by the overnight hours we can see maybe a couple of sprinkles around the bay. that's it. that system moves on out and we are back to high pressure in command. 58 for today in yosemite with 70 in fresno. the coast will be clear and cool with numbers in the 60s there. but the surf builds in southern california with mid-70s. and temperatures in and around the bay average for this time of year. upper 50s it low to mid-60s. but the rainfall certainly isn't. with only four inches in oakland and about 5 1/2 in san francisco. that's only about 32 to 36% of average. so the accuweather seven-day forecast shows more sunshine today with about the same range in temperatures tomorrow for the holiday monday. a few more clouds on tuesday. maybe a few sprinkles overnight. by wednesday we are back to

sunshine and warmer weather. looks like thursday, friday and then into the weekend temperatures will be well above normal. so we are just reporting it here. doesn't mean we like it. in fact, what is a disappointment yesterday's rain was. but it kept the parade dry, the festivities, so that's always a good thing. >> yeah, bus it has rained on this parade in years past. they got a break this time around. thank you, lisa. what's your sport? we ask you to show you how you play the game of life here in the bay area. and we've seen everything from gardening to skydiving. you can e-mail your videos to ureport@kgo tv.com, or share them using the hash tag what's your sport. you might just end up in a new commercial tore abc7. in sports tonight, steph curry will start for the western conference, making his first appearance in the nba all-star game. last night steph had a

disappointing night in the 3-point shooting contest. here's mike shumann with the highlights in this morning's sports. >> good morning. the nba is staging their all-star weekend, which includes fun for everyone. we tip off with the three-point contest. warrior point guard steph curry representing. steph in the competition for the second year in a row. did not have success last year either. bounced in the first round. made 12 of 25 for a total of 16 points. he needs someone in his first -- in his face to make shots. and meanwhile the final round. belinelli had 17 baskets for 24 points. at least a former warrior won the event. meanwhile in the dunk competition, harrison barns didn't farewell either. missing on the first two attempts. finally dunked on the third and final. mclemore, over shaquille o'neal for the the best dunk so far. the dunker of the night voted by the fans, john wall of the wizards. a sick move, hovering for the slam and the big fun for all.

college hoops, cal and seattle hosted by the huskies. gave the bears a run for their money. washington dominated early, but the bears came roaring back. wallace the steal, and then the finish. cal ended the half on a 19-2 run. justin cobb misses but david crab for the put back. wallace lays it in. he had 20. cobb, 26 his 18. cal winning big, 72-59, improving to 8-4 in pac-12 play. >> stanford facing washington state. and anthony brown put on a show. 89 of 10 shooting, including four 3s. he had a career high 30 points. stanford led at the half. few times brown missed, his teammates had his back. the put-back slam and stanford wins 69-56. well, it's rare when a college athlete gets his or her jersey retire, especially only a year removed from the school.

last night in we had just that in meraga. st. mary's hosting byu he got his number retired. only the second men's basketball jersey retired in school history. well-deserved. gaels led by as many as 14 in the first half. byu rallied. collins, 2 of his 14. cougars outscored st. mary's in the second half. they sweep the season series with the 60-57 victory. santa clara hosting usf. apparently there weren't enough shirts in the gift shop. the freshman lays it in for 2 of 14. ties the game at 58. and the career night for him. he tips it in. 26 points. 6 boards. he ices it with the monster two-handed jam. 21 seconds left. usf wins it 69-62. that's the way the ball bounces. i'm mike shumann. see you again tonight at five. have a great day. >> we hear a lot of talk about body image these days and some of the things that contribute to
