6:16 am
today, once we get rid of the clouds, we are going to be a little bit warmer today than we were over the last few days especially inland where we have a lot of numbers on here with daytime highs climbing up into the mid-70s. a few degrees warmer than we were just yesterday. let's take a look outside. a pretty view from the top of the mark watkins hotel. you start to see a few more clouds when you go inland. that is the tri-valley. that is our camera in dublin. while it doesn't look that way for the entire bay area, it does for much of the east bay whether we are talking about going up 880 through the communities of hayward, fremont, or oakland. you can see it on the temperatures the impact has had. it is in the upper 40s right now. 49 degrees in fremont. 47 at san jose. meanwhile, you get up into the north bay, no clouds. it is much colder. 36 degrees right now. a perfect example, you can see
6:17 am
how this is all outlined. when we take a look at where the clouds are and where they aren't, here is the east bay. playing it forward on futurecast, it does not stick around long. the clouds are gone, it is sunshine and we get back into this scenario with daytime highs. in the mid 60s for much of the bay but in the mid-70s for many inland spots. the other thing to discuss is the fact that it has been downright windy for anyone near the water for the last few days and that does not change today. if you look at where the winds are on the futurecast, the color-coded map showing you the brighter colors and the stronger wind. it is the coast in the immediate bay. even those things might calm down a bit through the late mornings today. as we get into the afternoon, here we are at 4:00. look at the streamline. that is an on flow surge. we've got gusts up to 20 miles
6:18 am
per hour, gusts to near 40 out of bodega bay, gusts to near 20 at half moon bay. the maps are not lit up all that much. it is a good visualization of why some of us really get the wind and others don't get it at all. the closer you are to water is the simplest way to come away with that idea. there is a weak storm sitting off our coast. that one will be out there for the next several days. there is no hope of that bringing us any rain. that pattern keeps us rain free for the rest of the 7-day forecast. you can see not a single cloud on here for the next few days. maybe a bit at the coast. that is nothing new. we will keep the marine layer along the coastline the next several days but it will stay sunny and relatively warm for the rest of the bay area going all the way through the next seven days.
6:19 am
>> the breezy weather -- it was freezing last night. >> could use the water where you were? >> no but i was close to it. there was a push to keep a stretch of san pedro street in san jose closed permanently for outdoor dining. we will see a lot of stories in the future. this has been shut down during the pandemic so restaurants could add outdoor seating. business owners in the area say that they prefer the open air atmosphere and have even added lighted decks and planners to make their storefronts. >> this has been a lot more lively with the permanent outdoor seating that was not here before. it is great. i love it. >> it is creating an urban environment that downtown san jose needs and desires. >> it is very nice. couple of things could stand in the way of making the
6:20 am
pedestrian friendly strip permanent. the busy garage that has one entrance on the san pedro street and limited access to emergency vehicles. for now, city leaders say the street will remain closed at least until the end of the year. in morning, everybody. coming up, there was a local golfer near the top of the leaderboard at augusta national on a saturday morning. the first fans at oracle park.
6:21 am
6:22 am

6:25 am
he had a great approach on 18. the final three holes shot 68 and klay thompson watching the warriors and wizards from the virtual crowd. golden state up three. bradley beal got the rebound, gets fouled i andrew wiggins and knocked down to three. that turns into a 4-point play. washington up one point. next possession, draymond green binds damion lee but he passes up the shot and threw it. the washington wizards need the warriors 110-107. what a loss for golden state. they have dropped eight of their last 10. finally, hosting the kings in front of virtual fans. l.a. power play. brent burns with the past ahead. cantrell finds the back of the net. the sharks win 5-2. they are 5-1

6:46 am
such a beautiful view with the bay bridge in the foreground. the oakland estuary not that far behind it and the sun just having come up over the shoulder mt. diablo. if we look at the east bay a little more closely, this is what it looks like going up and down 880. you can see the mid-level clouds over much of the east bay. that goes from oakland down to milpitas and even into parts of san jose. if it is in the east bay right along the water, it is also inland or the east bay. this is inland alameda county. that is the tri-valley. you can see mid-level clouds there as well. taking a look from the top of the salesforce camera to the east, it is not that cloudy everywhere. you can tell where the clouds are and where they are and by looking at the temperatures. everybody over here is in the mid to upper 40s. that is where the clouds are. everybody in the mid-30s has no clouds. clear skies means the temperatures have been able to drop. here is another way of looking at it. a great representation on the futurecast. we will play this forward and
6:47 am
the clouds all disappear by late morning anyway and then we get into sunshine. the other aspect about today is it will still be windy if you are anywhere near water. if you are on the coast, for sure it will be windy but if you are in the immediate bay with access to the water, what would happens to the wind. it will die down through the late morning but the bright colors show you where the winds will pick up again in the afternoon. this is 4:00. that is prime time for when we notice that strongest onshore flow. we are backup to a 22 miles per hour wind gust in the city. meanwhile, there is barely anything going on in livermore. 11 miles per hour breeze, you don't even notice that. look for the brighter colors. that is where you will feel the wind a little more this afternoon as the onshore flow increases. let's see the impact on daytime highs today. we will be sitting in the low 70s for much of the south bay. 64 in union city. san mateo going to 66 today. mid-70s for inland contra costa county. pleasant hill, 76.
6:48 am
danville, 73. we will top out at 73 in pleasanton. pretty much the same number for livermore. into the bay proper, low to mid 60s. 63 in oakland today. 63, san leandro. 71, petaluma. we will top out in the mid-70s in the far north bay. still watching this same system out in the pacific just spinning its wheels out there. there is futurecast showing you where the rain will be over the next few days. it stays out here. storms up here have to go around the long way. even as we put this into the long-range forecast, we are already looking ahead to next week. the date of there says april 16, 17, 18. we have this persistent area of low pressure sitting up off the coast of california. none of it gets here. it has been fascinating to watch that. i started talking about that a week ago. for the next week and a half, we will still be talking about that. in the meantime, nothing changes here. daytime highs of the mid to upper 70s for
6:49 am
