across the bay area to at least see temperatures that will be setting records even for oakland and concord. low 70s. beat out the old records. look at this, 66 degrees the old record in oakland. you don't have to get very warm across the bay area. the other thing we're paying attention to is the four-month precipitation trend this graphic shows you how much rain we're going to be looking at across san francisco on average for the next few months, february, march and april where you'll notice the rainfall totals really fall off. we're talking about only an inch we average in april, so if we do not get this rain that we're expecting for january, you'll notice each and every moppnth w look at our chances dwindling, our fingers are crossed we'll get showers but unfortunately the next seven-day forecast that you find scrolling at the bottom of your screen it does not look like showers in the forecast. the good news wednesday and thursday we'll see more fog roll in so that will increase the onshore breeze and that will increase our air quality. there a little bit of good news

wildfire season in the summer. new this morning firefighters in marin county are battling a wildfire west of fairfax. crews are working the fire along the bolinas-fairfax ridge line betweenpinealpines. since the fire is in such a remote location there are no active evacuation orders. crews from neighboring areas are battling the blaze. many of cal fire's resources are targeted at a southern california wildfire which has already destroyed at least five homes. firefighters now chasing flare-ups after that brush fire started on thursday. the flames raced down the hillside forcing some 3,700 people in the communities of glendora and azusa to evacuate. it engulfed 1,700 acres in the san gabriel mountains and authorities say it's 30% contained. authorities say 17 structures

secondary particularly known for their physical attributes. they're not only huge defensive backs, they're fast, powerful, they like to talk and very physical as well. it will be quite the challenge for san francisco's receivers. >> it will be. jim harbaugh made a big deal of how physical this the seattle seahawks secondary was and even asked if it was legal some of the stuff they were doing. richard sherman is probably the best cornerback in the league. he's playing at a very high level, but there's also no mistaking of the fact that he does like to put his hands on receivers and at times grab them. now, what's going to be interesting about this game is the officiating. how is it going to be called in the defensive backfield because that will really set the tone for this game. the referee did not do a 49ers game all season but it's an all-star officiating crew and the three guys in the secondary each had a 49ers-seahawks game this season and in one of those games one of the officials in this game did throw two flags on richard sherman for holding.

>> wide receiver anquan boldin said you can't worry about the officiating you have to play the game and wait and see how the calls are, but how do the 49ers receivers handle the physical nature? >> anquan boldin is in a good spot because when you talk about physical wide receivers, he's at the top of the list. the 49ers have a tandem of wide receivers with boldin and crabtree that are kind of similar. they're not speed guys. they operate very good against press coverage. so, in that case it's going to be strength versus strength. the physical cornerback for the seahawks and two very powerful wide receivers for the 49ers. >> and let's not forget their physical tight end vernon davis as well, i'm sure he'll come into play. we are looking forward to the nfc championship game, division rivals but the first-ever postseason matchup between these two teams, it is sure to be a good one. well, a pair of pants distracted football fans this weekend. it all started with the wife of

the south bay. here's your hour by hour forecast basically temperatures at noon in the south bay at 60 degrees and falling back by 50 at 5:00 and even by the noon hour we'll see temperatures warm back into the 60s and off toward the east bay, tri-valley and north bay you'll notice a wide array of sunshine and plenty of temperatures that will warm back into the 60s by noon and expected into the 70s by this afternoon. so, it is going to be a warm day. in fact, record-setting territory for many of our inland cities, san jose, live move, and san francisco and oakland breaking old records set back 50 to 60 years ago, it will be another stretch of warm weather heading into the weekend. we've got an area of high pressure sitting right on top of us and this has been the way it's played out really all winter long. another day of record-setting heat. increased fire danger for the weekend and also poor to moderate air quality.

here's the thing even though we're not talking about rain showers, i do want to show you the futurecast as we move through the upcoming week, monday you'll notice the clouds start to increase across the bay, but look what happens as we head towards tuesday, that onshore wind really starts to rev up and we may even just get a little bit of drizzle by the time we head into wednesday and that will be enough to clear out the air and at least return us back to some more at least healthy air quality levels. if you are making plans to watch the game tomorrow or at least head out to seattle, this is what the conditions will be like towards game time, by falling into the low 40s by 5:00 and the 49ers won't have to deal with showers there. we'll be back with more coming up right after this. ♪
