low clouds expanding overnight. much warmer days ahead beginning friday. and triple-digit temperatures inland likely over the weekend. let's take a look at overnight conditions. low temperatures mainly in the mid-50s. perhaps upper 40s in the valleys, like napa and santa rosa and the expansion of the low clouds and fog across the golden gate and across the bay but not very far inland. as the morning commute begins, low clouds should not be a significant factor in slowing down the morning commuter unless you are along the coastline where clouds are thicker. notice, if you could confine it to the bay and the coast in the early morning hours but we pull back to the coast line in the early to mid morning and by day partly sunny at the coast by afternoon. and it will be cool to mild tomorrow. breezy on the coast. highs from upper 50s to low 60s in the coast. a low to mid-70s mostly around

the bay. and low to mid-80s for the most part inland, but up to about 88 at antioch. now on friday, the warm-up begins. we'll see typical temperatures with highs in the low 90s inland on friday. and then a big weekend warm-up advances on saturday with inland highs in the upper 90 toss about 100 up in cloverdale. warmer in the forecast period and maybe sunday mild to hot with upper 90s to 100 in places like fairfield and concord and livermore and 100 or above for the feels-like in cloverdale. so here is the accuweather seven-day forecast. upper 90s inland by saturday and up to or above 100 inland on sunday. notice not much of a cool down on monday, tuesday and wednesday of the we won't see triple-digits but we will see mid to upper 90s. so the warmth will hold on for a while inland but there won't be a big warm-up around the bay or on the coast. just mild conditions there. the hot weather confined to the inland areas. larry and kristen. >> thank you, spencer.

♪ light piano today i saw a giant.

it had no arms, but it welcomed me. (hawk call) it had no heart, but it was alive. (train wheels on tracks) it had no mouth, but it spoke to me. it said, "rocky mountaineer: all aboard amazing". more than 8,000 people are expected at a pokemon go crawl in san francisco tonight. although, apparently not me, larry. >> you and i. because of this loading problem. but that is part of the story. players will gather in two locations at 6:00. perhaps not including kristen zse. they had a bit of a pokemon problem this afternoon. participants are looking at their phones and they are wondering whether the phones will load or not. melanie woodrow is live with all of the details. >> reporter: i know, this is such trouble, right.

it is a pokemon problem for all of the people expected to gather out here. so this is what we've been seeing this afternoon. basically it is this loading error. you get an exclamation point and said the server is loading but for some it is taking a long time or it is just not loading at all. and here here on the embarcadero and this is one of two starting points and the other is at a park and it is the idea for people to catch as many pokemon while socializing and drinking. it is easy to see who might attend a pokemon party. players can't seem to hide their love for the game. >> i don't see why you wouldn't be playing it. >> it is a way -- it is fun and addicting. >> reporter: so why not expand on that fun. >> combine two great things, pokemon and hugs. >> and that was sandra's idea. she didn't think much when she posted the event to facebook. >> and i woke up the next day and there was 500 people going and by the end of the day there was 2,000 and now i think there

is 8,000 going. >> 8,000 people beginning at the embarcadero or delores park. and with plenty of places to stop and eat and drink as they catch pokemon, including others. >> we're expecting a big crowd around 7:00, 8:00 and 9:00 p.m. >> they say there will even be a pokemon ball pinata. >> we want to make sure our guests keep their heads up. >> a tall order considering playing it often involves looking down. they want people to be safe as well. she posted these tips from sfpd. >> do not run into trees or meters or things attached to the sidewalk. they hurt. >> we don't want them to be so distracted they are hurt or hit by a vehicle. >> the server is down. >> reporter: the server load errors threatened pokemon go might become a pokemon no. but by mid-afternoon -- >> it just went up. >> the problem had been

perfected. >> reporter: and unfortunately that is not the case right now. at least now here for us in san francisco where i am still getting an exclamation and a load error. hopefully the servers will be up and running before the end of the night. live in san francisco, melanie woodrow, abc 7 news. >> thank you. >> it is a crisis. thanks for joining us for abc 7 news at 4:00. i'm larry beil. >> and i'm kristen zse for ama daetz. abc 7 news news at 5 begins right now. >> there is no backingp that protest. up next, when patriotic turned chaotic at the gop convention. and melania trump and the san jose woman taking the fall for her speech snafu. >> and in oakland, protesters chained at the neck. and prices are edging down but is it coming at a price. luggage sitting on the tarmac and planes stacked up at the gate. this is not a good day to fly

southwest. and sky 7 hd is on the way to breaking news right now flying to a grass fire in solano county. tense moments this evening outside of the republican national convention in cleveland. police used pepper spray androt gear to keep -- and riot gear to keep the peace. >> and all eyes on donald trump's vice presidential candidate mike pence as he is minutes away from accepting the nomination. i'm larry beil in for dan ashley. >> and i'm kristen zse. there is a lot going on in cleveland at the convention. let's get right to laura then who is there live for us tonight. laura? >> reporter: hi, kristen. well there was a lot of concern about protests leading up to the event but it has been pretty quiet until now.

escalating today, right outside the arena. at the entrance where most of the delegates come into the arena every day, this afternoon there was some tension, some violence and we found ourselves right in the middle of it. this is what happened after a protester tried to burn an american flag in the streets just outside of the rnc in cleveland. that prompted this response from police. some in heavy riot gear and used pepper spray and there were scuffles and some injuries and several arrests. the man who tried to burn the flag was arrested. a cleveland police spokesperson explained why. >> we have a law against open burning in the city of cleveland and that would be consideringed open burning. it is not about the flag, it is about open burping. >> we have $20 hats. >> reporter: a half a block from the
