it's a light level 1 system that will move onshore tomorrow. light showers, rainfall less than a half of an inch across the region. and as this front moves through, the rains remain pretty light. easterly wind 10 to 25 miles per hour. you need the rain gear as you step out the door tomorrow morning. live doppler 7, along with the wider view showing you that thin ribbon of moisture offshore. the weak ripple of energy behind it. you can see the spin right there. it is slowly marching towards us. we thought we would get some showers later on tonight. but it looks like the timing has slowed down, and we'll find the light showers moving onshore tomorrow morning. ahead of the storm, it's pretty mild out this evening. temperatures holding in the 50s. right now 51 in is an rom. 56 in san francisco. 57 in san jose. napa with a temperature of 51 degrees. overnight tonight we hang on to the cloud cover. temperatures very slow to fall with that cloud cover overhead. over the next 12 hours, we'll drop into the 40 across the

board with a light sprinkle showing up after midnight. let's go hour-by-hour. plan out your monday. we'll stop the clock at 9:00 a.m. monday morning. kind of the tale end of the monday morning commute. we're just beginning to see some light showers make their presence known. i think the best bet comes midday into the afternoon. to find that wet weather by 2:00 on monday, we're tracking the scattered showers, and the threat will continue even by 6:00, 7:00 as well. total rainfall with this system on the light side, as you would expect with a level 1 storm system. rain potential where we find the showers pop up across the board, less than a half of an inch. most cities away from the coast. we'll find less than a quarter inch through our monday. highs on your monday, limited sunshine. we'll track those on and off showers. you won't need the umbrella the entire day. where we do find a shower pop up, you'll need it for five minutes or so. the week ahead we're tracking

stronger storms, and i really want to highlight the time frame between wednesday night and thursday morning, because what we're watching, there is the risk that we could see some very heavy rain move through the evening. not only some heavy rain, but some very strong potentially damaging winds in excess of 40 miles per hour. the threat is there midweek. we could see some more downed trees and flooding is possible. as we get close, we're going to fine-tune the forecast that looks to be the strongest storm we have over the next seven days. the accuweather forecast, scattered showers tomorrow. downpours with the stronger system on tuesday. we're watching wednesday night into thursday morning. we may have to up those numbers on the storm impact scale as we fine-tune it. but otherwise dryer skies prevail to end the week. now abc 7 sports with mindi bach. >> to borrow from mark twain, reports of tom brady and the patriots' demise have been greatly exaggerated. plenty of people thought the chargers would not the patriots out of the play-offs, and plenty of people were wrong.

brady thrives when he is dutied. philip rivers and the chargers had very few highlights, but here is one. this game was tied at 7. but then the patriots took over. brady to julian edelman. the redwood city native is second to all-time in postseason receptions. you need just 57 more to catch jerry rice. the rookie sony michel also excelled. he had two scores in just the first quarter. second quarter, more patriots. brady to phillip dorsett. 15 yards for the easy fix. three patriots possessions. three touchdowns. let's make it four possessions, four touchdowns. rex burkhead from six yards out. the chargers understandably frustrated. michel ended up with three touchdowns and 105 yards rushing in just the first half. the patriots are up at 28 at the half. they cruise to a 48-41 win. the chiefs are favored over new england in the championship game. the eagles looking for a little more nick foles magic against the saints. in the first quarter, they found

it. foles to jordan matthews, 37 yards for the score. philadelphia would take a 14-0 lead. and look, in control. but remember, that is a saints house. drew brees to keith kirkwood in the corner. the saints trailed by four at the break. new orleans goes on a nine-minute drive in the third. brees to michael thomas, who makes a nice catch. the saints take their first leap. final three minutes of the game. foles, his throw. right here is absolutely perfect. but we show it to you in slow-mo, because it's right through alshon jefferys' hands and into the hands of marshon lattimore. the interception helps seal it for the saints. they host the rams next week in the nfc championship game. tomorrow is the deadline to declare for the nfl draft. according to multiple report, the a's met with murray today to persuade him to stick with baseball. murray was the a's top pick from last year's mlb draft. that took place before he

quarterbacked oklahoma to the college football play-off and picked up a heisman trophy along the way. espn is reporting executives from major league baseball are also taking part in those meetings. some project murray to go in the first round of the nfl draft where he would make millions more than his minor league deal with oakland. well, the warriors are clicking right now. they made 59% of their shots in east of the last games, and they're going to take that role on the road where they play seven of their next eight, starting with the mavericks. in dallas, some interesting pregame rituals that is for sure. earlier kevin durant blocks the three and takes it all the other way for the great slam. durant had 17 in the first half. steph curry was on fire in this one. he had 16 in the first quarter and 24 at the break with five three-pointers. the mavs are playing well in large part because of rookie luka doncic. the warriors know a thing about a comeback.

curry to cutting draymond green. warriors down by six at the half. third quarter, durant with a great pass through traffic to steph for his seventh three of the night. he would end with 11 threes, 46 points, and this one just went final, 119-114 in favor of golden state. just seconds ago. sometimes tara vanderveer, they, like to show everyone how dominant they are. they led 47-16 at the half. carrington scored 11 of her 19 points in the second quarter. stanford went on a 27-0 run, and led by as many as 37 in the third quarter. alana smith added 20 points, 14 rebounds and seven blocks, and the cardinal just cruised to a 78-48 victory. so nice to see them when the team is doing well. >> to paraphrase a famous movie i will not name, it's hard work to look this good if you're stanford. >> i'm going bug me until i find

out what that movie. hint? >> we'll figure it out by 11:00. >> okay. well, an upset at the box office this weekend. the surprise movie that so we don't want you to pay yone cent more than you need to for health care. at covered california, you can get health insurance at a lower cost. in fact, enrollees pay an average of $5 per day. see how little it costs to get covered.
