picked up. >> we are very concerned about those winds. >> the extreme dry conditions triggering red flag warnings across the northeast from new jersey up to maine saturday. >> our crews will be out there monitoring and working some hose lines, cooling any hotspots and then just making sure there's no additional flare ups along the line. >> as the northeast deals with drought, the southern plains are bracing for severe weather. strong storms sunday night into moy morning could cause isolated tornadoes and damaging winds in western texas, and parts of oklahoma could see up to four inches of rain. in new york, i'm jen sullivan, reporting. >> you know, i almost feel like we need to get used to these very strange weather patterns, because just days ago, we were talking about fires in the new york city area. like, since when do you see that extreme weather is becoming more common? >> the events are of greater duration. so yeah, we've got some things to think about here, but we're fortunate here that we don't have any extreme weather

happening right now. and we had a fairly, fairly mild fire season here. so we have a light level one storm coming into the bay area tomorrow, bringing scattered showers, slippery roads, some minor localized flooding in low lying areas is possible. here's a forecast animation showing the first wave of showers arriving in the north bay in the late morning hours by mid-afternoon. the showers will be spreading to other parts of the bay area, but quickly ending and pushing over to the sierra, where it will snow so we won't get a lot of rain out of this, maybe a couple of hundredths of an inch. the overnight low temperatures will be in the upper 30s to low 40s, so it will be pretty chilly overnight. but we're not getting snow, just rain. tomorrow's highs upper 50s to low 60s. and the accuweather seven day forecast shows a mix of clouds and sun for much of the week. coming up. it will be rather unsettled. it will warm up towards the end of the week, and then we'll get some more rain late friday into next saturday. >> okay, we like seeing those ones on the storm. yes. >> just once. yeah. we don't need the threes and fours. >> spencer. thanks. okay. all right. once again, chris alvarez joins us with another preview of

at levi's. it's going to be the home regular season debut and second game overall for running back christian mccaffrey, who missed the first eight games of the year with achilles tendonitis and quickly learned everybody had an opinion on his injury. the stanford man says he's feeling good after his first game of the year 107 total yards in tampa bay. and while the road to recovery was long, there's another challenge at cmc. i didn't see coming. >> you get a lot of instagram doctors out there. you know, some guys that, you know, i had guys diagnosing my injury, some doctors talking about my injury on the tv. i couldn't believe i. i never talked to him in my life. he's never seen, you know,

imaging, talk to me, diagnose me. it's just kind of the world we live in now. >> obviously extremely happy to have him back for everything that he does for us. but more than anything, we just got so much respect for, you know, how he goes about his business and being such a great teammate that he is. >> george kittle went to iowa, but lost another bet and had to wear a ucla gear this week. remember he had to wear iowa state gear earlier this season after brock purdy. cyclones beat georgia's hawkeyes. kittle had two touchdowns in the week six victory up in seattle. he and fullback kyle juszczyk jumped into the stands, hugging their wives. now the niners, five and four, hoping for another second half surge while seattle's four and five. they've lost five of their last six. george, though expecting a hungry hawks team. >> whenever you're playing a team who has high aspirations preseason and, you know, start the season off well like their backs are against the wall. you know kind of how hearts have been the past couple of weeks. and when you go against a team like that very dangerous. probably going to take more risks. you know it's a huge nfc matchup for us and in the division. so it's people throw around must win. but you know it's one of those we dropped two

already in the division. so we kind of have to win this one. >> george has got to stop making bets. all right. tuesday night was one to remember at chase center. four time champion, future hall of famer and a man who's going to have his jersey retired one day. klay thompson returned to the bay area as a visitor with the dallas mavericks, a night filled with captain klay hats and plenty of emotion ended with a steph curry night night. steph and klay a quick embrace pregame. and then it was on between the splash brothers who went to work. klay little corner splash. oh it's the steph shimmy. he scored 22. hit six from deep. but steph got the last laugh. hoop and a foul. oh that's on klay. and then wardell went on a personal run . splash and night night warriors won it 100 2117. what a night. >> it was a little weird at first seeing steph warm up, but that's the nature of our business. change happens. it's happened to plenty of great players who've won championships together. i mean, yeah, it was surreal. and a night i'll never forget. unfortunately, it was a

tough loss. there's plenty of more battles ahead, which is the fun part. >> i don't even know if i wanted to go over and say hi to him. it was like like a yeah, on the on the blacktop and recess in high school or something like that where you're just kind of you don't really know how to how to handle it. first time i talked to him was right before the jump ball. it was a weird balance all the way around. trying to handle all the emotions that we have. >> and how about this for a bay area unite wide receivers from the niners, deebo samuel, ricky pearsall courtside and miked up for that dubs mavs game. deebo is friends with steph curry. but this is a whole new experience for the rookie out of florida. >> how many games they play a week. i don't know. they play 82 games though. that's what i'm in the playoffs. >> mutter who? mutter. years. oh years.

and he don't stop the hill. but he going to shoot it from there. he going to shoot it from there. >> i want to watch a game with those guys. all right. the sharks finished up a four game road trip in pittsburgh. former shark erik karlsson looks like he should be in a robin hood movie. san jose trailed three. nothing in a hurry but third period tyler toffoli, his eighth goal of the year. we're all tied up. final seconds sidney crosby looking for career goal number 600. but goalie mackenzie blackwood says no, sir. makes the stop. he was in relief. this goes to a shootout. alex wennberg has a chance to score here. no. sharks lose four three in the shootout. they'll host the red wings on monday night. abc seven sports is sponsored by river rock casino. dion. >> chris. thank you. and that is all the time we have for this edition of abc seven news at 11. i'm dion lim. the news continues tomorrow morning, bright and early at 5:00 for spencer christian. chris alvarez, all of us here at abc seven. thanks so much for joining us. we'll leave you now with a live look outside where things do indeed look crisp and cool and clear.
