neighborhoods. >> reporter: the mass exodus rusted in more housing supply and less demand. but after big price drops, san francisco is the most expensive rental market in the country. according to zumper acts $2700 for one bedroom apartment, it beats down new york and l.a. neighboring cities san jose and oakland round out the top 5. there is some good news, the rent prices have fallen to levels we have not seen since the last recession. drops of more than 20% compared to last year in many neighborhoods. let's go for a ride. i want a to show you the prices. zumper used thousands of the ads to crunch the numbers let's focus on the median price of one bedroom apartment. south of market newer condos and apartments shall the average price $2800. the rents dropped once you go to downtown where there's more

cloudy here, too. clouds are a little higher at least you see the top of the buildings and look at clear sky we are not looking at any issues with low clouds. that means it will be colder there. that's why it's in the upper 30s in livermore and 50s in san francisco. huge difference and north bay has the worst in terms of the clouds. so much so, we have got fog down on ground and in fact, it is likely the fact we don't have much in the way of cloud and in the mid levels that allowed the fog to develop on the roadway down here for santa rosa, petaluma, napa and reduce visibility. and if we look at where the clouds are, let's take them forward and show you how they melt back. by the time we get to the late morning it's the immediate bay at the clouds and those go away by the time we have gotten 1:00 and 2:00 2. 2:00.
