skies. for the bulk of the day, a cloudy day, but peeks of sunshine across the bay. mostly temperatures in the upper 50s. we could squeeze out a few low 60s as well. so, yes, as ann mentioned, future cast. overnight tonight, we are staying dry. clouds, mix of fog and clouds and sunday evening, it looks like between 6:00 and 8:00, we could see rain move into our forecast. it is just going to be light rain, but then looks like it's going to stick around through monday. leaving monday unsettled. the monday morning commute could be a wet one. pinpoint forecast, overnight lows, mostly in the upper 30s to low 40s. 43 in vallejo. 40 in concord and 47 is your overnight low in san francisco. and once again for tomorrow, partly to mostly cloudy skies for the bulk of the day and rain showers by the evening. and temperatures are going to be mostly in the upper 50s. a lot of spots could squeeze out a 60 or a 61 if you are down in san jose. 61 in concord. so, once again, looking out

over the next several days. on sunday, partly to mostly cloudy skies and then by sunday evening, we're looking at around 6:00 to 7:00 is when we are expecting the light rain to move through and it remains unsettled through monday through most of the day and through the system on monday, it looks like we are drying out for the remainder of the workweek. kim, let's check in on the world of sports. >> thanks liz. former cal star remains at the top of the leader board, a stanford man is on the move. all the highlights next in sports.

former cal star charlie wi s kim is smart. she was at pebble beach when the weather was good. >> i was there, you could have worn shorts. had to put some sunscreen on, it was crazy. it's tiger's first pga event. charlie is 18 holes away from his first career pga win, but some big names breathing down his neck. here is dennis o'donnell with more. >> hello everybody. tiger woods rounds 68 in his first two. gets to 67 today and what a heck of a leader board. bill murray savoring last year's win with a cookie on w his picture on it. he started on the back nine and the birdie train began to roll. the uphill put on 15 to push

him to 8 under. then on 17, another uphill put that hits the bottom of the cup for another birdie. tiger's fortune was rubbing off on tony romo. from the puck on 17, romo for a birdie. isn't bad at all. phil mickelson posted a 65 yesterday. he sank a birdie put to move 9 under for the tournament and is in contention. he is six shots off the leader. shot a 69 and is 15th under for the tournament. >> i have gone through two news conferences. you have been in the position where you have been a third ground leader. you are more mature now. why do you think you can win this tournament tomorrow? >> i turn 40 this year and i have two beautiful kids and i don't know what it is. i feel like something turned and i feel a lot more comfortable. >> i think i'll be in a group in front of charlie. not too far behind me.

i need to get off to a good start and that's the first six, seven holes. you know, that's where it can be had. >> i saw you glancing at the leader board at 18 and you won here. now you put yourself in a position to win. how does it feel? >> it feels great. now i know that i'm quite a few shots back. i'm five or six shots back, but i also know that this golf course, you could come out and get a quick start, make some birdies. i bet i had 50 last night that said you're going to play the easy one tomorrow. to me, there's not an easy one. you have to figure out, let everyone finish the first three days and see where you are. because you can catch pebble on a good day like we did thursday and catch pebble on a day like yesterday or today and it's a different ball game. >> charlie wi in second place. what a leader board is shaping up. tiger woods is there, charlie wi is there. it could be a cal versus

stanford final showdown tomorrow. that's it from pebble beach. we'll see you on the post game show after final round coverage on cbs tomorrow. >> thanks dennis. harrington have the lead, but for some celebrities, making the cut is enough. >> we're back in it. trying to make the cut. i don't want to go home tomorrow. my wife is there. >> everybody loves raymond. college hoops with the win today. usc in the same season for the first time since 1959. also going for their 20th win of the year. first half, justin cobb gets it on the wing and takes it right to the rim to transfer from minnesota led cal with 18 points. second half, bears up 10. cobb finds harper camp who hits the layup in traffic for part of a 3-point play. the brewens would get within 8,

but allen crab, 3 is the dagger. cal wins 73-63 to take a half game lead over washington. so first place in the pack 12. the lynn sanity continued last night in new york and the palo alto native may have made a believer out of kobe bryant who wasn't caught up in all the type. >> i don't know what he's done. i don't have any idea what you guys are talking about. i'll take a look at it tonight. >> well kobe definitely got a good look and probably was confused to hear mvp chants for somebody else. the garden crowd on his feet all night as he scored a career high to lead the knicks to their fourth straight win. >> do you think kobe knows who you are now? >> you have to ask kobe. i don't know. maybe. he helped me up today during the game. he might know who i am. >> of course the warriors cut lynn and sent a text to mark

jackson thanking him. >> we are still rooting for him. >> they have a good guy. >> all right, thank you much. well, information is still coming in tonight on the death of singer, whitney houston. efforts to revive her in her beverly hilton hotel room failed and she was pronounced dead at 3:55 this afternoon. so, what is next for the grammy award show tomorrow night? the latest details with a look back at houston's career and a live report tonight at 10:00 on the cw11. that's going to do it for us. we'll see you at 11:00. good night.
