noting hill, looking good. nice clear skies. a gentle sea breeze. but overnight the offshore winds are going to blow. mount vaca looking good. hazy in the distance. still great over the bay. it looks like skies will stay nice and clear all around the bay area. the ridge of high pressure is just too dominant and it will continue to bring some nice weather outside. all right. the latest image here for you, you can see clear skies all around the state of california. we are looking at sunny skies. even warmer for tomorrow. and as it looks like the offshore winds should really get going overnight tonight. sunny and warm, 70s. even some low 80s possible by tomorrow afternoon. inland. a lot of 70s, near 80 degrees in and around the bay and out to the coastline. 60s and maybe low 70s at the beaches. highs today, pretty impressive. 79 the hot spot. and 77 in santa rosa. 68 degrees in san francisco. stepping outside now, you've got temperatures mainly in the 60s and 70s, although we have some 50s showing up at the coastline with a bit of a sea breeze. again the offshore wind will blow and bring sunshine all around the state.

near 80 degrees in the sacramento valley. high country looking good. 54 at lake tahoe. cool but plenty of sunshine and the ridge, hey, it wants to stick around. it is pretty strong. and it is building over the bay area. that is cranking up the offshore winds. and there is the one system that will drop over the top of this ridge on monday. that may just change the wind direction a little bit. but for tomorrow, we're looking at the offshore winds. sunny and warmer weather outside. just about everywhere you go. numbers like this by tomorrow afternoon. up, it is going to be one of those great ones. 79 degrees. morgan hill. 77 in sunnyvale. and 78 degrees in palo alto. even about 68 in half moon bay. and east bay numbers up, mainly in the 70s. even at 80 degrees in concord by tomorrow afternoon. and 77 livermore. and 79 degrees in oakland. a little down slope wind area in santa rosa could crank them up to 81 by the afternoon. about 80 in the napa valley. about 77 degrees in kentfield. so you get the idea, working on a great day tomorrow. and some subtle changes as we head into monday. mainly near the coastline. maybe picking up a couple of

patches of fog. and then that temperature soars through the middle of the week. and temperatures in the 80s. that is a look at weather. here is gary with a look at sports thanks, lawrence. another member of the giants goes down to injury. i will tell you who it is and how long he will be a spectator. >> he was glued to the bases, mount rush more on the move, all the fun, coming up in sports. ,,,,,,,,
