southern california. 70s in texas look at this snow developing with those clippers record ice out west mild in the rockies and plenty of sunshine all the way across texas. back down into florida that's what's going on around the country, here is what's happening in your neck of the the woods. >> good morning. i'm meteorologist kari halling a look at our clear view at the golden gate bridge. temperatures are cool now but we'll heat up heading for the upper 70s and low 80s, setting records in santa rosa, concord, oakland, and san jose. as we go through the rest of the forecast, it most likely will stay this warm through at least sunday, then monday a cold front drops in. it will be breezy as our high temperatures reach the upper 60s and low 70s for the middle of next week.
