front is headed further east so you will not see the really strong gusty wind that we have had. we will see scattered showers continuing on and off throughout the morning hours with some pretty good downpour. a pretty good cell in walnut creek and it continues to show up around much of the bay area. if you're headed out the door, plan on some showers this morning. as we look towards the afternoon we will try to watch the clouds part just a little bit but still a chance of showers. upper 60s in some of the valleys. that system coming through is moving to the east and you can see the cold front has moved just to the east. behind that, another system off the coastline so we will keep things on settled. beginning to taper off as we head to the afternoon. the clouds will part just a little bit so we will sneak more clouds over night.

even tomorrow there is a slight chance of showers mainly north of the golden gate bridge. showers in to sacramento, bring snow chains if added to the high country. about 66 with showers in fresno. looking out over the next couple of days, i don't care what the calendar says, it is still winter in the bay area. most of the showers will stay north of the bay area in the next few days but another system will drop in. it seems like as soon as we got to spring it switched back to winter and it has been fun. >> as soon as i got here! >> there were 35 straight days of rain, a tsunami, and today's of snow when i got here so welcome to california. >> we do have snow chain requirements in a fact if you

the span. the south bay, you can see a lot of green on our sensors like we usually see this time of the morning. there is no major road work out there and nothing really to slow you down. same thing for the drive times in the east bay. it looks great for richmond and berkeley. in the meantime mass-transit looks good as well. a quick reminder, our radio partners can give you all the latest information once you hit a road at 106.9 fm. >> after a cheating scandal rocked the s.a.t. the last year, the company that administers the test announced some new security measures. the major changes that students will need to submit photos of themselves when registering for the test. this also affects students taking the act test as well
