the dense fog advisory has been extended. let's show you where that is. not in the nine bay area counties yet but coming close. right now we have got fog pushing up this way. the fog advisory heads out into the big valley. as we saw last night, that fog will fill in tonight in many bay area locations. here is how it breaks out. the overnight lows in the 40s. upper 30s and low 40s. and then we are looking for that fog to really mush into concord. this morning there was a dense fog advisory. parts of sonoma county as well. we could see that tomorrow morning as well. dew points are around around the temperatures of the overnight forecast. if you had an issue with it this morning. an issue again tomorrow morning. high pressure is there. the fog is there. and with high pressure weather systems have been heading north. running north now for, well, heck, about 25 days. haven't had a really good strong system here in a while. but this high breaks down on sunday. we are going to bring some showers in here. weak showers. no big deal. if it starts to change things up a little bit.

it will certainly scour the fog out of the valley. but in the meantime as we roll into thursday, valley fog, fairfield vacaville, concord, napa, the spots we had it this morning and even a little bit more. visibility is less than a quarter of a mile in many locations. visibility in the central valley this morning down to 1/16th of a mile. difficult travelling to the central valley. 2 a.m. you see that big pool of fog in the central valley. you see it kind of pulling in here. 5 or 6 in the morning look at that. there is the footprint you can see it really lingering here. sacramento south of bakesers field all the way north into redding. as we get into the mid-morning hours it starts to burn back. fog is the story for thursday. friday is transition day with a few more clouds. and then by saturday looking at increasing clouds. and by sunday some sprinkles. again not a big deal. but enough to mix-up the atmosphere and sort of change the stagnant weather pattern which has been giving us this very dense fog. these above average temperatures. san jose set a record at 70 for

day-time high for this time of year. tomorrow 71. 70 in fremont. the five day forecast you will see it right here. a little bit of rain on sunday. that will be go ahead. saturday is your best day on the weekend. fog will be a player the next couple of mornings. tomorrow morning should be the worst of it. >> thank you, bill. >> a window into the past. some san francisco students open a

. >> some san francisco school children got a glimpse at the past after opening a 100-year- old time capsule. the capsule's contents included a book titled "school law of california 1909" and old class

picture. some students today knew what they would put in their own time capsule. >> i would put a $100 check. so, like, maybe if they need it they could cash it. >> at this rate they might need it. the capsule also included a letter explaining at the time the city just recovered from the 1906 earthquake. no one knew the time capsule even existed until a school volunteer found a refers to it in a newspaper story from 1910. >> that's a surprise in itself that that little boy wanted to give $100. mark joins us now and not good news. double dose of disappointing news tonight. >> you could call it that but bring it a lot stronger against a team like new orleans if you are going to win on your home court. having played the 7 of the last eight games. it was the game of basketball they didn't seem overly familiar with. basketball tonight the hornets

hit their first seven shots no trouble eluding david lee there in the paint. so it goes the usual story ellice leads the warriors with 26 points. does his business on the baseline and draws a foul as well. never a doubt, though. chris paul what a night 18 points. more impressively 17 assists to get it to cover. make it ten straight wins for new orleans. the warriors have lost three in a row. while the warriors never looked for a moment like they were going to win tonight the sharks until the final moments very much had the look of a winner. not the way you want to go into the all star break in the nfl. a momentum buster. scoreless first 1-0 la kings. in the second ryan the first of two unassisted goals right there with the blast to make it 1-1. just 37 seconds later devon doing all of the work by the net he comes to put them up 2-1. the kings score a goal to

make it 2-2. after overtime shoot-out. jared staal with the goal massed niemi. the sharks have a few days off the to reminisce about that one. maybe if he goes another couple of years golfing like he did this passed year people won't be glued to whatever tiger woods is doing or saying. but until further notice, when he speaks people are still tuned in. down at tory pines today the scene of his last major conquest at the u.s. open. remember the winner in 2008? woods,up for his first event of this season. starting tomorrow he claims he is still out the same thirst for victory but with a little twist. >> well, the determination hasn't changed. it's just that you need to be focused and put into a proper perspective. i went down a path i should never have gone. and now the determination is keeping my life in balance. and how importantly, i think what is most important to me is

my kids. i need to be in even balance for them. >> all right. get a dose of what he has got going to start this year tomorrow with round one. that's the sporting life for this evening. >> mark, thank you. be sure to join the ktvu morning news beginning
