always take a back seat for both teams. soccer now, jackson scored the game winner, and first half quakes down 1-0. marcos lopez first career goal ties things up and the cars go wild. 82nd minute tied, andy rios a penalty kick, lines it up and blasts it home. quakes take a 2-1 lead. he's mobbed and again the cars love it. great fans they have in san jose. the quakes have won two straight defeats both l.a. teams within the week. that's it for sports. let's send it back to you. >> game three of the nba finals is today right here on abc 7. coverage begins with nbc countdown at 4:00 p.m. the lakers and heat take off at 4:30 and larry beale and kerry keating for toyota after the

game around 7:00 p.m. let's get another check of the bay area forecast with lisa argen. we are all on standby, hoping we get a little bit of rain this coming week. >> yes, we're beginning our very, very subtle cooling trend today. temperatures are still above average but we're not going to see triple digits. yesterday at the concord airport it was 105, and today we're forecasting highs in the lower 90s. so here is a look at live doppler 7, there is fog at the coast. a shallow deck of low clouds but you can see them from northern california to southern california. this system here will also initiate a stronger onshore push. it's not going to do much else. by the time we get to the middle of the week, the low clouds and fog could even squeeze out a little bit of mist and drizzle. it is 61 in oakland. 50 in santa rosa. good morning fremont, 57 for you. danville is at 61 a air quality check you'll notice the oranges here from napa to san rafael, that's moderate air quality, pretty good in san francisco. it's poor in vacaville and san
5:49 am
jose also looking at the moderate air quality, better here towards the coast. hazy conditions, the low clouds, the fog at the shoreline here, and as we get through the afternoon, this will burn back to the coast, but we're also going to see some breezy onshore winds. right now they're out of the north so upper level winds are still with that offshore component, and that's going to weaken, so that's some good news. we'll look for the cooler day today with hazy conditions and that chance of rain coming into play on friday. here is a look at that low cloud deck as it pulls back today, and then look how far it goes inland tomorrow. making its way into marin, perhaps sonoma, across the bay, and that's certainly what we need to see as we get into 7:00 on monday. things once again will be trending cooler into tuesday and wednesday. so 90s for your monday. tuesday slightly cooler, look at wednesday, just low 80s inland, and this is what we're watching. this system that will primarily head to the pacific northwest
5:50 am
but we're going to link up a little moisture from the south and that helps us out, squeeze out maybe 0.1, 0.2, maybe more than that in the north bay. still way too early to say but we're looking at a pattern change. 87 in san jose. mid 80s in palo alto. 80 in millbrae. san francisco mid-60s with the low clouds and fog, looking at north bay numbers from about 90 in santa rosa, so that's an improvement, right? 86 in vallejo near east bay. 80 oakland, mid 80s in union city and headed inland and temperatures coming down a good ten degrees today. warm afternoon for new pittsburg at 93. 89 in pleasanton. the accuweather seven day forecast we have our spare the air alert with the poor air quality north bay and our inland east bay for today as well as tomorrow, then southerly winds are going to bring up still more smoky air as we get into monday and tuesday, despite our cooling trend and stronger onshore push. temperatures really take a tumble, feeling like fall by the middle of the week and rain late

friday in the north bay into saturday. liz? >> all right, lisa, thank you. when fires or natural disasters hit it becomes easy to get separated from your pets and n the chaos of it all. an east bay cinematographer is using infrared drone to make sure that doesn't happen. abc 7 news melissa pixcar introduces the tech when it matters most. >> what you can do the drones animal rescue is unbelievable. doing it hundreds of times already in the past year and a half. during the hurricane, i was delivering medical and food supplies out in the bahamas and filming the destruction of what had happened during the rricane. unbelievable i've ever seen how that got wiped out. while i was filming that destruction i was seeing animals walking around through the debris. i got the idea to put an infrared camera so i could spot the animals and worked so well i
5:52 am
decided to continue to do it and ended up going to southern lius koalas, vacaville, oregon and louisiana. pretty much been on the road nonstop. i go wherever the animals need me the most. i see the animal. then i zoom in on it and see i can see the kchb the animal and look at it with the zoom lens. best time to spot them is at night because then the ground is cool and you can see the animal glowing on your screen, tell the rescue crews where it's at and the crew walksevery single rate of animals is amp ge chang. through activism, eventually led me to this point, i'm protecting the individual animals from natural disasters like hurricanes and fires.
5:53 am
my hope is that one day these drones saving animals will be as common as a helicopter saving people after a natural disaster. a quick way to deploy new technology to save animals and wild animals need all the saving they can get and people's pets of course do as well. animals bring so much value to the world, having a world with animals, whether it be wild animals or pets, just makes the planet a better place. it's an incredible feeling to unite someone's pet with them when they lost it. can't even begin to describe how wonderful that feeling is, when you can bring that little animal back and of course that would be the actual most valuable thing they could get back. i'm hopeful that what i'm doing will inspire others because it works so well and there's dozen people like myself to be doing this sort of work after a disaster. it's an overwhelmingly wonderful feeling to be able to do that
