50 structures are considered threatened. so far no homes have burned. we may be heading into a weekend warmup but winter is coming and it looks like it's going to be wet. roberta gonzales in the weather center with the latest on the el nino report. >> from the kpix 5 weather center this afternoon, we have noticed in a new report the national weather service says all computer models, all of them, are now predicting a strong el nino to peak in the late fall or early winter. el nino is a warming of ocean temperatures that changes the path of the jet stream and essentially where waterfalls. in order -- in order for el nino to be considered strong it has to be 2 degrees warmer than average for three months in a row in the pacific. very strong el ninos have a track record of nearly doubling or averaging our rainfall totals like we saw in california in 1997 and '98.

experts predict that this el nino could dump a substantial enough rain to put a dent in our drought. now, we kind of try to sort of emulate what we have just been talking about here and i know when you look at this you say i don't understand it at all. it looks like a big red blob. but actually this blob indicates the sea surface temperature over the pacific ocean. where you see this revved here, that's as of this month of august, that signifies that the temperatures of the water surface temperatures averaging about 2 celsius above average. that means our water temperature should be about 54 degrees. but we have been experiencing water temperatures anywhere between about 61 and 67 degrees off our own local coast. this is a very strong indication that, yes, el nino is forming and, yes, we are going to have a wet late fall, early winter. >> thank you. it is big news for shoppers today. the san francisco premium outlets in livermore is opening 30 new stores. the parking lots are already
