for a regular gallop of gasoline. last year at this time prices were about the same except in the city where it was eight cents higher. and it is very cold out there. in fact, i used any gym shoe as an ice scraper this morning. >> i used a credit card. >> that's good. maybe tomorrow morning. >> that's an old one. i'm sure you have a couple to spare. even colder this morning and we have some moisture on the way. here's live doppler 7hd. you can barely see it, the top left happened portion of your screen. this very cold air mass it going to descend to the south and east. usually they are pretty much moisture-starved when they are this cold and that's the deal today. it will take all day to get here. late afternoon showers slated for the north bay. as we look outside you will notice that it looks pretty clear and this is the warmer panel of temperatures starting with san francisco at 40. we are under our freeze warning until 9:00. it's 31 in oakland. mountain view and san jose with

30 in morgan hill. and likely into the 20s in the next few hours. half moon bay and the coast, 34 degrees. and another vantage point for you. it is certainly one of the coldest mornings we have seen. check to it out. pretty much everybody here in the 20s. 28 in santa rosa, 27 napa. novato and fairfield at 28. concord 31. 29 in livermore. so the dewpoints sit in the mid-20s so we could see temperatures drop to, say, 26 degrees in livermore before the morning is out. so with the freeze warning until 9:00 everywhere except san francisco and the strip of the peninsula here. it is definitely a frigid morning out there. how much colder? well, you were just as cold almost yesterday in novato and parts of the east bay, around concord. so not a whole lot of change for you. it's pretty much everybody else getting into the act with less wind this morning. you had a northwest wind yesterday. without that san jose to 10 degrees colder and antioch

11 degrees colder. as we get started with this little rainmaker come today, i want to give you some perspective of where we sit right now. it looks pretty good. seems like we haven't had that much rain for december compared to last december, but not sitting too shabby here at the airport. ed 7% of normal. 87% of normal for oakland with over two inches of rain. you can see san jose with their two inches of rain puts you to 121% of normal. and sacramento just at 6735% of normal -- 65% of normal. up north the reservoirs are doing pretty good at 100% of normal. the short term doesn't look wet but the long-term i'll show you in a moment. it will be dry for the last week of the year. so as we go through the next couple of hours, we have the cloud cover increasing in the north bay, and then by 2:00 in the afternoon we have rain, cloverdale and santa rosa. still sunshine in the south bay. but by 5:00 spotty showers gip

to develop around emeryville and perhaps around san carlos. you see the north bay, not a lot going on. by 9:00 still some showers mainly in the city, over ward hayward by midnight. it's over by your monday morning commute. but we will look for the possibility of maybe a few sprinkle getting going in the morning. but it will be warmer tomorrow morning. so that's more important. temperatures anywhere from about 5 to 10 degrees warmer. but rainfall totals only .03 in san francisco. less in oakland with perhaps .1 in half moon day. nothing to write home about. in the mountains a couple inches of snow, just enough to make it icy and dangerous heading to the sierra nevada. low 50s today. san mateo, half moon bay. maybe 50 up in san rafael they will and santa rosa. the accuweather seven-day forecast, maybe a shower today. you notice the cool stretch. but really into the middle of the week we will warm up slowly. it's the new year. so the next seven days, cornell,

it's dry here but if we were to go out another ten or fourteen days it looks like more activity with more rain. that's what we are hoping for. >> it's funny it's cooler here than it is on the east coast. i was talking to friends back east, and it's warm back east and cool here. i do like the cold weather, though. lisa thanks. no rest for steph curry. how he and his family are make the holiday season a bit brighter to are his biggest fans. you are invited to ring in abc with ryan seacrest. begins thursday at 8:00 p.m. a break for news at 11:00. then it continues at 11:30 with

where >> in sports the 49ers are on the road in morning looking for their fifth win of the season. they will take on the detroit lions at ford field. kickoff at 10:00 al. last night ucla faced nebraska. here's rick quan with the highlights in this morning's sports. >> good morning.

when nebraska was invited to the foster farms bowl, despite having a 35-7 record, some weren't sure the huskies deserved it but last night they proved their critics long. let's go to levi's stadium. going against ucla. early on looked like the bruins would dominate. josh rosen, quarterback, teams up with kenneth walker iii and he will not be caught. good for a 60-yard score. make it 14-7, ucla. but the cornhuskers come back to score 48 straight. a sensational one hand grab. ran the ball 10 times for 76 yards. he gets in to make it 37-21. ucla cut the lead to 8, but on fourth and ten, rosen is picked off. nebraska upsets the bruins 37-29. it's the pac-12 first bowl loss this season. >> we probably played our best football game tonight. when a team can do that, fight through all the stuff we did,

that says a lot about the character of the young men that are in the program. i think we as a team have great respect for them and we don't look at the record. but when you do look at their record you saw they lost 8 games by 8 points or less, they beat michigan state. it's deceiving. they are a good football team. you can watch the college football semifinals on new year's eve. oklahoma and clemson in the orange beam and then the cotten bowl. it leads up to the national championship game january 11th on espn. one pro football game last night. in washington could beat the eagles, they would clinch the nfl east. not a whole lot of love here. after falling behind 7-0 they answer with a pair of touchdowns. washington led by 6 at the half. kurt cousins threw for 365 yards and four touchdowns. this bullet to chris thompson made it 23-10. for the eagles it was a year of

disappointment. denewark comurray fumbles the football. picks it up and scores. washington wins 38-24. after going 4-12 last season, washington is headed to the playoffs. after leaving the warriors to their first nba title in four decades and being the league's most valuable player, steph curry has been named the associated press male athlete of the year. he's just the fourth nba player to win the award inets 85-year history, joining lebron james, larry bird and michael jordan. he beat out the horse american pharoah and jordan spieth who won two majors. he's gotten even better, and getting golden state off to a 21-1 start. the best in nba history. >> out here to celebrate the end of 2015, which is a great year for me and my team and the organization. more encouragement to keep doing what i'm doing and definitely recognize all that happened this

year. >> congratulations, steph. the warriors play again on monday. and that is sports for a sunday morning. i'm rick quan. i'll see you again tonight at 5:00. >> all right. thanks, rick. it is a very chilly morning. hopefully it will warm up a little bit this morning? >> a little bit. just a little bit. but we have warmer air on wait for the next seven days. in fact, after today this air mass is behind us simply because the clouds increase by mid- afternoon. that will allow for a warmer evening and high pressure builds in and we have a nice story to tell for the next several days. end of the year looking warmer. but wetter? we will get to that in a moment. live doppler 7hd we have some green to the north of us. this is what we are expecting later on this afternoon in the north bay. for the evening hours in the south bay. some of you may not see much at all. we are looking at maybe a couple hundred dreads or a tenth inch of rain. but it will push through for your sunday afternoon so it's

worth noting. more importantly, the low temperatures. a freeze warning until 9:00 this morning. this is the warm spot in san francisco at 30 degrees. 31 oakland. mountain view and 28 morgan hill. on the coast 34 degrees. in the inland east bay and the north bay we have temperatures in the 20s already. the sun doesn't come up until about 7:24. we won't get into any warming until at least the 8:00 hours. she's numbers likely to drop into the mid-20s. 28 fairfield. 29 livermore. 31 in concord. yes, certainly cold with frost and some ice out there on your windshield so you are certainly going to have to give yourself extra time and keep the animals inside for a while. this morning we are 14 degrees colder in oakland than we were yesterday at this time. san jose 10 degrees colder. and out in antioch 11 degrees colder because the wind has stopped. we had a northwest wind yesterday and that allowed for a

little mixing and keeping things relatively milder. the cold air mass is in place and it will stay with us throughout the day today. so with limited sunshine, we will be below average today. only in the low 50s. maybe even not even 50 degrees. i could have said that better. that's in the north bay. with the freeze warning out there again, hopefully you have covered up the plants. san francisco is the exception. but you saw that 34 degrees half moon bay. so temperatures will hover right around freezing even at the coast. so we will look for the chance of showers later on today in the afternoon in the north bay, evening and overnight hours elsewhere. and we aren't looking at any rain through the new year. but there's a reason for that. so far the rainfall totals have been pretty impressive for the month. of course, we need more. but we are anywhere from 87% of normal to 133% of normal in the bay area. you can see higher here up in ukiah. that's the good news. that's where the reservoirs are. we have what is called a

mid-winter dry spell, which we have every single year. it's not up likely to see anywhere from 4 to even 10 and 15 days of no rain. we certainly are looking at that for parts of december and perhaps january. but by the middle of the week, after the new year, we are looking at more wet weather. the rest of date featuring the cloud cover. cloverdale and santa rosa this afternoon should see showers. by 5:00 not much out there. emeryville, perhaps. and by 9:00 spotty showers from vallejo into the city, down in the peninsula and perhaps around had hayward. but it's really toward the overnight hours the south bay and the santa cruz mountains will stay in some wet weather activity. temperatures today, with the cold weather, will only be in the low 50s. look at the rainfall totals. only about a tenth if you are lucky from mountain view to san jose n the mountains one to two inches. a dusting there. we will look for highs about 50 north bay, 53 santa cruz.
