we have a dense fog advisory until 11:00 for our east bay valleys and behind me, you can't see much, because of that. and we do have that fog extending into the san pablo bay. it's in pockets, elsewhere around the bay. and also, widespread into the san joaquin valley. it's going to take a while to burn back. we'll have that through at least about 11:00, 12:00, but it will be a dry day with a mix of clouds and sun. kind of cool out there. and then the rain arrives overnight, bringing some wet roadways for your monday morning commute. as we look outside right now towards walnut creek, you can see, it looks a little hazy out there. and that's because of the fog. visibility has been reduced to about zero in some spots. so here is live doppler 7, with the low cloud deck and the visibility on top here, you'll notice that we've got a half mile out toward the delta. just over a mile in petaluma and a quarter of a mile in santa rosa, but it remains just socked in here around livermore, concord, just three quarters of a mile. so you get the idea, even down

toward the peninsula. the san carlos airport, about four miles. sfo, no delays yet, but that could happen and delays will be stacking up across the northeast. check out the snow in memphis. icy conditions. we've got warmer air moving in over that colder air locked in at the surface. and so that's why we have that rain/snow mix and solid snow from north carolina to virginia, but look how wide this is ranging from the thunderstorms and heavy rain from florida to the carolinas and georgia. so a big mess in the southeast, while back home, we've got plenty of 40s, upper 40s, san francisco, 44 in oakland. 39 in livermore. 46 for you in fremont with 43 in san jose. it is milder out there due to all of that humidity. the fog with 11 degrees warmer than yesterday in novato at this time. so here's a look at the fog, once again. look how long it takes to kind of dissipate. it takes through the morning hours, just sitting here, through 8:00, 9:00, and then by 11:00, 12:00, we have this

clouds, a few areas of sun, and rain on the way for the overnight hours. we bring in our storm impact scale, it's a weak system, some breezy winds, some damp pavement as you get to work, perhaps or leaving tomorrow morning because it's going to take a while to get here. and when it does, it does weaken. so about 1:00, 2:00 in the morning, 3:00, passing the bay and it falls apart as it gets into the east bay by 7:00 tomorrow morning. so amounts, a few hundredths to perhaps a nent know vtenth in n. partly sunny, still the clouds will linger, 60 in free month, 58 in santa rosa. and the accuweather seven-day forecast showing that 1 on that storm impact scale tomorrow. download the accuweather app, and it will be milder when we get the sun out tuesday, wednesday, and thursday. but just by a few degrees. by friday, clouds increase, perhaps a little bit more rain. so maybe a pretty good weak to get some things done and not have weather get in the way, like it is in the southeast today.

>> so not as much moisture, but it is starting to feel a little bit more like t. exacy. okay, than 100 volunteers took part in the 13th annual presidio planting day. it's to re-introduce more than a thousand native plants to the tennessee hallow watershed. abc 7 news was in san francisco for the event yesterday. the presidio trust organizes it. the event is an effort to engage the community in restoring the nearly 270 acres of the eastern presidio, which is about 20% of the park. >> reporter: it's a 30, 40-year project to slowly peace back together the ecological habitats that were lost when this was an army base. >> volunteers have also helped the trust remove army landfills, reintroduce native species, upgrade trails, and help preserve the park's natural resources. still ahead, gearing up for winter. the adorable way this police dog

backside and zephyr regions. kirkwood has received more than 7 feet of snow to date. that means the slopes are open to skiers and boarders ahead of schedule. since october 1st, the average snowfall in the sierra has been around 4 to 5 feet, looking like a great season up there to me. all right, check this out. a police dog in south dakota is gearing up for winter in a very cute way. take a look at what happened when officers put new snow boots on his partner. there he is, oh, looks like he's having a -- he just kind of freezes there. the police department wanted to protect his paws, but as you can see, it takes him a little bit of time to get used to his new footwear. very cute. next on abc 7 mornings at 6:00, ray taliaferro's wife gives abc 7 news an exclusive statement for the first time since her husband's body was found. why a private investigator is now on the case. plus, a rocket launch scrubbed when something unexpected happened, just
