you can see there's light rain moving through the central part of the bay area. heavier rain down to the south. this is the view. looking out over the bay right now currently 53 degrees in san francisco. mid-50s also in oakland. 51 gilroy, and 57 at half moon bay. the pavement is wet, but we don't have widespread rain at the moment. temperatures in the low 50s alt petaluma, napa, fairfield, concord and livermore. and looking westward back towards san francisco these are our forecast features with breezy conditions overnight with periods of rain. there could be some occasionally downpours and wet morning commutes and this wet unsettled pattern will be with us for another week. a storm of light intensity but for tomorrow gusty winds from time to time.

forecast animation shows us the rain will be with us into the night hours but overnight after midnight beginning of morning commute at 5:00 a.m., we've got a bit of break. the intensity of the storm lessens a little bit, but there will still be scattered showers and in the afternoon hours we start to see a bit more sunshine tomorrow as the storm starts to break up and dissipate, but there's more rain on the way after this storm. don't worry about that. dangerous winds, we have high wind warning in effect until 3:00 a.m. tomorrow for coasting areas south of the golden gate. and a wind advisory in effect for the east bay, south bay and peninsula during that same time period. strongest gusts will be on the coast. and up in the north bay in the area of the burn scar from the kinkade fire we have a flash flood watch. not a warning but a watch in effect for 3:00 a.m. tomorrow because it is raining and the rainfall totals there a bit rather substantial and there's no vegetation there to help

absorb that water. over in the sierra still snowing heavily over 6,000 feet and road conditions are just terrible. overnight lows will be generally in the upper 40s to low 50s. and not a very wide range of temperatures tomorrow. breezy at the coast and spotty showers or rain. spotty across the bay area. every single day in the seven day period we have a one posted because there's going to be some rain every single day in the forecast period. the best chance we have for a nice break will be from late wednesday into early thursday. that's our accuweather seven day forecast. today's matchup between the niners and ravens billed as the game of the year, and boy did it live up to the hype. the weather, though, less than ideal. but it could be a super bowl preview. you see why. rainy conditions in the game all day long really in baltimore.

and the niners are going to get aggressive and go for it. and look at it and make that catch 7-0 niners out of the gate. and ravens respond. jackson hits and mark andrews 20-yard connection there. and then he mocks mick bosa and plants the flag in the end zone. tied at 7 and jackson the action keeper calls his own number, 14-7 baltimore ensuing san francisco possession. 40 yards off and makes a nifty move right here to get into the end zone. tied at 14. he had a career high 146 yards on the ground. fourth quarter we're tied at 17. instead of kicking a field goal, pass is batted down. and last time and the ravens would go at a 12 play drive and justin tucker his time expires and it is good. and the niners now 10 and 2 this

season. >> that was a great game. in my opinion two of the best teams in the nfl went at it, and they made a couple more plays than we did. >> it's a fun, physical game. it's a good ball club we played. i learned lessons from it. like i told you guys before you always learn a lot more a las than you do for a win so we'll get corrections in and get ready for new orleans. >> we need to make more plays in crucial separations and that's what separates a lot of these games, just a couple plays here and there. >> good news they had a chance to pull into a tie in first place in the west. but that's where the good news ended. it was cold but felt like 25 with the wind chill. second quarter chiefs up 7-0. patrick mahomes we know he can throw but decides to run it in himself. 14-0 kansas city. and had 175 yards in passing score as well.

derek carr picked off right there. ron thornhill saw it all the way. carr 222 yards and touch down and two interceptions. and this kip pretty much epitomizes the whole day for the raiders. wide left and john gruden's face, he's disappointed. and the post-season path becomes difficult. >> we just never found our rhythm at all. that's disappointing, but i know where we are. i know where they are as a football team. we have work to do, and we're going to continue to try and catch the chiefs. >> can't turn the ball over. and again you've got to give credit to their defense. i really pride myself on taking care of the football, but they made two extremely great plays and it's my fault. >> the warriors in orlando, game two of five game road trip for the dubs. reinforcements on the way. deangelo russell, jacob evans

not far behind. some good seats and good jerseys in orlando. down 7, robinson hammers it home. eric masical, rebound and slams it home. and fourth quarter now and now with under 90 seconds to go terence ross magic up 4. time winding down here. magic up one, the layup and last chance for the dubs. and got a good luck, off the mark and the magic win 196. that is it for sports. tough loss there. niners have a huge game next week. >> why don't we gloss over that loss. >> gloss over all the losses. frozen 2 iced the competition again at the movie theater. the record the ana, elsa and
