a live look outside from emeryville, and you can see how overcast it is this morning. with that, temperatures stayed mild into the mid- to upper 50s through the overnight hours and then we had the moisture in the north bay and also the mist on the coast. so as we look at our forecast highlights, we are going to see the clouds througout the day in the -- well, i should say, the morning hours, then they thin out. so still a chance of showers in the north bay. and then partly cloudy this afternoon. we'll get into a cooler, windy day on tuesday, and then by mid-week, drier and warmer conditions. check out the view behind me from our exploratorium camera. this is interesting, isn't it? you can see just a sliver of sun there. and some clouds, with the sun coming up, so, yes, we are going to see more of a partly cloudy sky today. if you're headed into town for the giants, plan on the low 60s, and a dry afternoon. here's live doppler 7, where we widen the view. and you can see that southwest flow from the pacific, allowing for the high, the mid-level clouds, and even wringing out some moisture in the north bay. this is san jose, 101, where you're going to see numbers

climb quickly. and by the afternoon, mid-70s for a high, with sunshine for you. it is 59 in san francisco, 58 in oakland. 57 with the moisture, half moon bay, 52 in morgan hill, and 55 there around the east bay. here is a look at tahoe, where it is 41 degrees, a high today in the 50s. so certainly getting warmer there. and look how warm it is now in vacaville, petaluma, and concord. 57 as well as santa rosa with 58 in napa. we'll see maybe some snow above 7,500 feet come tuesday in the mountains. so here's the plan throughout the day today. you see the green representing the moisture to the north. the clouds everywhere else. then they thin out, first in the east bay and the south bay, 10:00, we're still gray in the north bay. but we'll get into more sun throughout the afternoon. don't get too used to it, though. here comes the next system clouding us up tonight. and rain to the north, looks like we could see a few drops here in san francisco as we get towards monday night. so all of monday is on the cloudy side for most of you.

percentage of normal, santa rosa, 133% with oakland coming in just over 100% and looking at 106% of average for you in livermore, san jose, and looking at about 112% at the airport. so highs, well, once those clouds clear, it is going to be mild to warm over in livermore, 70. a couple of degrees above average. then we get into more cloud cover for your monday, about the same, 369. here is comes the wind. and the cooler day on tuesday. we rebound on wednesday and sort of stay in the upper 60s for the rest of the week. so highs today with the clouds, limiting the sun early on from the north to san francisco in the low to mid-60s elsewhere. it is sunnier and milder, with low to mid-70s, concord, and san jose. and, as i said before, coming into the city, we'll get some sun. it will be in the low 60s for the giants' game and the accuweather seven-day forecast. a lot of cloud cover to start out. then it thins out and we'll see low 60s coast, upper 60s around the bay, mid-70s inland, more

cloud cover for your monday. 1 on our storm impact scale, some showers from the north bay into the city. and along the coast. and then we clear out tuesday is blustery and much cooler. wednesday, we arrive at the nice sunny afternoon with mild temperatures. and a little cooler at the end of the week. >> lisa, thank. next, a pregnancy that led to cancer. it's rare, but can be deadly. one bay area woman's story and
