11:21 pm
fog at 5 a.m. as we go hour by hour, the fog pulls away to the coastline and then in the afternoon, in the evening, just kind of hangs around near the beaches. but for the rest of you, you are looking at sun temperatures first thing in the morning in the 50s. and the 60s once again, watch out. visibility will be poor. maybe give yourself a little extra time. it could be a little misty as well. tomorrow afternoon, mid 60s along the coast, all the way to the upper 80s inland for your tuesday. if that's not warm enough for you, look at wednesday we're going to be mainly in the 70s around the coast 80s around the bay 90s even showing up inland. and this is going to repeat. but those temperatures are going to come up even a few more degrees for your thursday, which will be the hottest day. don't get too used to that idea because look what's going to happen as we head towards the weekend. clouds will increase and this computer model wants to bring in a few showers sunday morning. the other computer model is keeping us dry. so for now, we'll go with a slight chance. accuweather 70 forecast morning fog followed by
