air quality was bad yesterday. we have this video of san jose. you can't see the sky line. an so some people did get out of the house. >>i was so excitessed to get back to normal, and now we have a little more smoke, so, feels like blade runner out here. let's get latest on the weather with darren peck. >> i will start off with the air quality report because i have some good news. we haven't gotten rid of most of the smoke but some of it. as a result, most of us near the water in the immediate bay, city, peninsula, aerial is moderate. and that's an improvement over the last 36 hours where it's been unhealthy. look at colors. the focus is orange and the official sensor for downtown san jose is still reading unhealthy for sensitive groups. if we look at the far east by a we are in the unhealthy access. if you don't have immediate access to the bay you don't

feel the onshore flow, you are stuck with the smoke. livemore, pleasant ton, dublin is unhealthy. concord has gotten a little better. look at yellow dots and same for the east bay and north bay. until you get up into wine country, where no surprise, it's very unhy in napa valley as smoke from the glass fire is just settling down. getting knot overnight hours, the smoke is caught up in the down slope winds in the overnight where the colder, heavier air sinks to the bottom and brings the smoke with it. it is not good morning to be out up in napa and hasn't been for the last several days. a little haze from the smoke on top of sales force tower. but i will show you why the air quality will get better later tonight into monday as we look at the smoke forecast temperatures out there in the mid-60s. so we ve gotten used to looking at the smoke forecast so far. here's saturday morning, deeper shade of red and higher the concentration of smoke, and

things get a little better throughout the day on saturday, and we keep just enough of an onshore flow going we keep the smoke pushed off towards the east enough, but u want you do see what happens from saturday evening until sunday. much stronger onshore flow comes on. and that really has a dramatic impact. for areas that have direct access to that onshore flow. this should help out most of the bay area with improved air quality for monday first half of the day on monday except the north bay. same story up here. the glass fire is still going to be producing smoke and the closer you are to the source of the smoke the worse the air quality will be. as far as temperatures today p. we will be in the upper 80s for much of the south bay. 87 in redwood city, and we will top out in the mid a upper 90s again here concord, 96, dublin, 94, livermore at 91. and low 80sin immediate bay but look at that 92 for san leandro. you start to get up in the north bay and back into the mid-

90s. a chance of rain by next weekend, thanks to what will be a falling apart hurricane. that's going to get caught up in a typical storm track. they meet up right here. that's late this next week, and look where the rain goes. it comes to us. this is not a guarantee. it's a possibility and with each passing day, with the models showing us the possibility goes up. you can't look out at day seven or day eight and have an exact forecast. but there is growing on the m by next saturday, we could get rain here in northern california. keep your fingers crossed, that holds. it could very easily change. but for right now, long range forecast models are saying yeah, that's going to happen. we will have to see how it plays out. >> you said the r word and my ears perked up, rain. >> and they should. that's the one thing that's going to get us out of this mess. until we get a significant rain, in northern california, the air quality is going to

stay bad and we will likely see new fire starts with each offshore wind event. >> all right. thank you. coming up, on kpix5, and streaming on cbsn bay area, message of support. leaders around the world are sending the well wishes to the president. good morning, streat ahead in sports, the lakers didn't need a thermostat to control the heat. national league had unfinished business on friday, and the baseball world says good-bye to a legend. all that straight ahead along with what's up with the 49ers. a nationwide audience awaits sunday night. say yes... to the best bargains ever at ross! yes! oh, yeah! yep. yesss! savings on savings on savings? that's yes for less. at ross.

improving the air quality if you are right near the water. and down in the south bay, the official air quality sensor for downtown san jose is still unhealthy for sensitive groups. and if you are far inland, you are not getting any help out of this yet. it is still unhealthy air here for the diablo and tri-valley and diablo valley livermore is looking at red dots so is pleasantton. the closer you get up here to the delta, air quality starts to get better. a little more influence from the delta breeze or the wind driving from the bay and moving across the street. so help and if you look at the city, yellow. that's good. and going up to the north bay, yellow is good, and through most of sonoma county along ty1, it's good. but, if you get into wine country, in sonoma or napa valley it's very unhealthy because the glass fire right there and all the smoke is sinking down to the valley floor. you can see plenty of haze from the camera on top of the sales force tower. so, it's going to look smoky when you step outside. but at least, it is getting a

little bit better. the official forecast has us at unhealthy for sensitive groups so give it one more day. now i want to show you this. this is what i want you to see. starting tonight, and going into monday, you will see stronger onshore surge that takes the smoke and pushes it far inland. air quality better today and should be much more noticeably improved for monday. we have to get through today, and a good part of sunday. but there is a sign we are going to -- we are going to clear this out. in the north bay as long as the glass fire is going, you will have air quality issues. you are too close he to the source of the smoke there. and daytime highs today will be warm. just like yesterday. mid to upper 80s in the south bay, and we will see plenty of 90s if you are far inland. low to mid-90s from 91 in livemore to 97 in pleasant hill. we will top out in the mid-80s for much of the bay and for the immediate bay that.

and you can see the number in the low and mid-90s for the north bay. now exciting news. we have a chance of rain coming our way. by saturday. there's hurricane down here, very intense. and it fall apart and the leftover moisture is pulled up no more typical storm track for us. and this is where it meets up p. and here's where it comes onshore. that saturday. it is early. this is not a guarantee. but, it looks really good. there's he a lot of reason for optimism here. but but tough throw in the fact that it is saturday and we are looking at next saturday so we won't play with your emotions, but it's worth talking about now because rain is the most important thing we need to really get ahold on this, record setting fire season, and clear out the air quality. and, for the last, probably, 36 hours, now, the long range models have been advertising

this possibility. and they are sticking with it. so, that's a good sign, but let's give it another couple days before we really start reaching for the umbrellas. >> it's truly sobering this time last sunday we were talking about this fire relatively small and still a week later. >> that's right. >> still trying to get a control on it. >> so much about the way this season is going. >> yeah. thank you. the pace of the u.s. economic recovery continues to taper off. the labor department says the economy added 661,000 jobs in september. that is four than expected and a big drop from the summer months. the unemployment rate fell to under 8% including more than 1 million people who left the work force. and more than 3/4 of those people were women. a new study by the lean in group finds working moms are at a breaking point during the pandemic. one in four are ready to downsized job or quit. and alex looks at what's behind the numbers. now feel like when i am doing
