11:20 pm
helps to keep our fire danger down, especially when we're in an exceptional to extreme drought. low clouds, fog and patchy morning drizzle, foggy areas for the fourth ofreworkal temperatures through the holiday weekend. so really overall weather looks nice, combination of fog and sun for your fourth of july at noontime, 50s to 70s, a mild afternoon and you will notice that there will be some fog around at 9:00. definitely grab the extra layer because it does cool off pretty quickly. let's look at your fireworks forecast for san francisco. you will notice the gray skies, fog right aroundsontparts of th bay, but well inland clear skies are expected. so if you are checking out the fireworks while inland, should be a spectacular show. here's a look at temperatures. at 9:30 you're looking at anywhere from the upper 50s to the mid-60s in places like livermore. hopefully mother nature cooperates for all the shows that are still taking place in this pandemic. hour-by-hour forecast, you will notice some patchy drizzle
11:21 pm
along the coastline, plenty of fog at 5 a.m. towards afternoon a few high clouds move, in but the fog never budges sitting near the coastline all day, 50s and 60s in the morning, drizzle and fog and tomorrow afternoon 62 in half moon bay all the way to 88 in antioch, so breezy right near the coast, warm inland, but nowhere near e exd st a couple of weeks ago. so the extreme heat stays away. the accuweather seven-day forecast, drizzly foggy morning, a mix of fog and sun for your saturday. still some drizzle. it's going to be a fine fourth of july, low 60s to mid-80s and we'll go with the mild to warm pattern inland monday through thursday right along the coastline in the 60s. so overal helping to make san francisco
