today in the 70s here as the sun will win out today as it evaporates the cloud cover. right now the marine layer pretty deep at 2300 feet. we are looking at that as it moves over into the east bay valleys to allow for the cooler air mass today. evening for the delta some breezy winds this morning. 53 and sunshine in san jose. 57 half moon bay and the fog is there. but the winds backing off a little bit along the coast today as we look for that clearing. then as this low pushes on out of here come tuesday, we will get back to our normal sea breeze. today winds out of the southwest. that will cool the north bay down. 59 napa, 63 by the delta. livermore and concord has been sunny. low 60s for you. it's all about the wind flow and an area of low pressure that is off the coast and parked there for the next day and a half. here's a look at brightening skies in san jose. later on today you should reach about 8 to. spotty drizzle will continue
