6:13 am
sunday morning local time which was around 10:30 saturday night eastern time. chinese state run media is reporting the bulk of its largest rocket bird upon reentry into the earth's atmosphere near the maldives. the rocket blasted off april 29th carrying components of chinese plant space station, harmony of the heavens. but the chinese space agency loss control of the rocket as it continued its 17,000 mile- per-hour orbit around the earth, edging closer and closer with each pass. skywatchers caught glimpses of it as it charges far north as new york and as far south as new zealand.>> this is the second largest uncontrolled reentry in the last couple of decades.>> there were fears it would send objects weighing hundreds of pounds slamming into the earth as it reentry the atmosphere. >> about nine tons, and that is like the equivalent of dropping three pickup trucks on

someone's head or crushing a small airplane. >> the u.s. military tracked the ruckus trajectory but had no plans to shoot it down. china's insisted its remnants were unlikely to cause harm. >> you have to remember the world is 75% covered in water, and the land area while very vast, there is a lot more empty land for debris to fall on then there are populated areas>> still the suspense as to where the pieces of the rocket woodland had many on the edge of the seats. danya bacchus cbs news . back here on dry land a beautiful sunrise is taking place this morning. officials on eyes at 6106 this morning so were just starting to see it peek up over the horizon and the camera on top of the mark hopkins hotel has a glorious view of it. looking through the gap between transamerica on the left and salesforce are on the right, a great-looking view. and it feels relatively warm for most of us.
6:15 am
that is the scene from on top of the salesforce tower by the way. but looking at the temperatures, we are all 50 or more, many are mid to upper 50s. in other words this is one of the most warm mornings we have had yet so far this year. in the offshore wind has a lot to do with that. if you get dry, offshore wind or warm it up and if you do the comparison where we were yesterday, 9 degrees warmer than we were yesterday and if you're in early morning riser, it could feel different. you'll probably not complain a lot. it isn't wendy on the ground where we all live. it might be breezy. if you look at current when there might be 10 or 15 mile- per-hour gusts and some of the communities and around the bay area. but it is windy in the mountains. 36 mile-per-hour gusts right now in the north bay and dirty mile-per-hour gusts or the diablo range, it will get stronger over the next hour. and when the sun has time to
6:16 am
balance out, the warmth of the sun and energy, it will start to level the playing field. we will get a bit windy into the afternoon. but for a lot of us there will be onshore breeze today. that will probably being daytime highs down a few degrees from where we were yesterday. all the while we are still under the influence of the much larger offshore wind. whatever opportunity it will get the will make their presence felt in the mountains and that is where the red flag warning. the wind picks up tonight and tomorrow morning into the mountains. you see what happens with the relative immunities today. watch into the afternoon how things dry out. but then we get into the peak of when we see the onshore flow and humidity levels really start to climb again. it is fascinating to watch the ebb and flow of humidity levels rising and falling. it is good onshore flow is helping a little bit.
6:17 am
but isn't helping enough. red flag warning still in effect until monday morning at six a.m., northbay mountain east bay hills and valleys. we do have a concern, no doubt, the national weather service issued a red flag warning they don't take it lightly. there is even higher concern to the sacramento valley where the wind will be stronger over a longer run of dryer grasses where we can see flames take officer running. what happens in the seven-day forecast? we call midtown wind wise by to say, they will likely extend the red flag warning. we will still have offshore wind that will take us to perhaps do so morning. you see how warm it will say. once we get done with that you said those numbers will cool back down and by next weekend we should be out of this red flag warning business.>> the weather yesterday was beautiful and there was so many people out. more than i think i have seen in a long time. >> what was fascinating about
6:18 am
yesterday, from friday to saturday, most locations bay area wide, the daytime highs were 10 or 15 degrees warmer from just one day. a lot of people said hey it is pretty nice out, let's get out. today will be almost identical.>> a group of scientists have come up with an out of this world plan and they want to use a radio telescope on the far side of the moon to unlock some of the mysteries of the universe. the concept is known as the lunar greater radio telescope and will help researchers measure radio waves from the time before the stars first appeared astronomers believe they will be able to listen back as far as a few hundred million years after the big bang. a radio telescope cannot be built here on earth because distant radio signals are blocked by the atmosphere.>> in morning, what is on my mind? a couple of bay area big-league first-place teams. that, and for my site the
