high-pressure building but the next chance of rain is on sunday and that is when temperatures come back down and we will see more clouds. overnight lows will be a little milder, so we won't see too many 30's. lots of mid to upper 40's around the bay. san francisco 47, oakland 45, san jose 44 and a couple upper 30's like morgan hill, 39. a frost advisory for lake and mendocino county. last night, a hard freeze in freeze warning but tonight, frost advisory so some areas could drop as low as 33 degrees. we could see frost so keep that in mind. tomorrow, we warm up even more, still breezy at the beaches and that is what temperatures will be near 60 at half moon bay but around the bay, 70's. san francisco 64, oakland 72, san jose 73 and about 80 in fairfield. notice near 80's and upper 70's through the north bay. that will increase in terms of

confident that we know so -- each other so well, so when we get healthy we can pick it up wherever we left off. i understand how to be effective. we just bring our best selves to the playoff chase. i like the thought of where we are at when we are healthy and the fact that we will hopefully have fresh legs and bodies and minds ready to take on the playoff chase. have to be a little nimble towards the end of the season to figure out what that looks like. >> friend believe he is making headlines after making the first dunk in the ncaa women's tournament since 2013, but these are the defending national champs. stanford and kansas in the second round thomas weeks t -- sweet sixteen birth on the line. this is the final game at naples for stanford this season. they transition to neutral sites for the rest of the way. home-court advantage is good as long as you handle it right. >> it puts pressure on a team.

we have gone on the road and won in front of crowds. i'm sure kansas hasn't -- has done that as well. there is a certain home-court familiarity and comfort, but you have to still put the work in. home-court doesn't make baskets for you. the crowd doesn't get any rebounds. they don't play defense that i have seen. you have to do the right thing. >> who loma. spring training, darren baker is a my gartner leaguer -- a minor leaguer. his father, dusty baker, didn't realize his son was bringing up the cards until he got to home plate. check out the embrace and the smile on dusty's face, the same darren baker who jt snow saved in the 2002 world series when he was a batboy. the craziest review of all time happened last night, minnesota college hockey conference title

game. ncaa tournament berth at state, minnesota state scores the game-winner in overtime, everyone goes crazy, you get the trophy. everyone leaves the arena, all done, right? but wait. review officials got another angle, determined the net came off the post and the goal should not count. somehow they got the ref sands and fans back in the arena to restart the game an hour later, then four minutes into the reese -- the restart, minnesota scores again. they will go into the tournament. where are we? are we still playing? that was crazy. i have never seen anything like that. can you imagine a warriors game ending and, you beat the buzzer but wait. everybody come back, that didn't come -- didn't count. >> usually everybody is gone by then. that is funny.

>> tonight at 11:00, and east bay city may be one of the first in the nation to confront our country's enslavement history.
