6:15 am
be drawn our way. the main conflicts that we may be concerned about are the series of fires burning up through the northernmost part of the state come up around mt. shasta. you can see the plume of smoke on futurecast. as we play this forward, thankfully, we still have the same overall, upper-level wind pattern since the fire started. which is to take everything from the south and move the way of the north. good news on that one, for now. but eventually, the wind is going to shift. we have to see how they do with that fire. no significant wind shifts over the next seven days. instead, we have a big holiday tomorrow. let's talk about the fourth of july. there are two ways to do a forecast for the fourth of july. there is the, how will the weather be for your backyard picket picnic, not picnic, but barbecue, whatever you are doing outside tomorrow. if you are having friends and family over by the pool. this is going to be an excellent day for that. it is going to be in the mid- 80s and sunny. it will be sunny for the most part of the day pretty much bay area-wide tomorrow. a quick forecast for the day.
6:16 am
now the question is, will you be able to see the fireworks, when those go off in the 9:00 hour tomorrow night. and the official show is the one happening on the waterfront here in san francisco. that is one of the few locations that, by the time we get to 9:00 in the evening, that is where we will see that persistent marine layer already having likely redeveloped. so the, the odds are pretty high that that firework show is going to look more like this, in terms of the conditions of the skies overhead. you will get those blurry colors through the clouds, more than the details. but i am sure, still a fantastic show if you want to go. that is the same view of the deck of clouds, but looking from treasure island. san jose, you have clouds as well. this is one of those days where the mid-level stratus is pretty much bay area-wide. the temperature was around 60, with the exception of the north bay which is in the low-50s. we change our perspective and look at this map in terms of
6:17 am
where the clouds are, there is the south bay. there is the tri-valley. you've got a, santa rosa, you are waking up to them. but watch everything, as we have done for the last week, bounce back. and by the time that we have gotten into, you know, noon, it really is just at the golden gate or at the beach, would we will still get light dampness. this is a thick enough marine later, a real showing of june gloom. we have put rain in the rain gauge, we are talking about missed here. there is no impactful brain, it is technically immeasurable. daytime highs coming up to around 80 for much of the south bay. we will warm up into the mid- 80s for the inland valleys of the east bay, that is a little warmer than you were yesterday. it is a subtle warm-up. the numbers in the immediate they have is in the upper-64 daytime highs. notice tickets gradually warmer, we are in the upper- 70s, low-80s by the time we get to mid-90s for daytime highs in and acetyl county. the seven-day forecast, you have got to look toward the back end of it. temperatures will start to climb on us. but until we get to the end of this next week, devon, it does not look like a terribly
6:18 am
significant heat wave, but it definitely looks like a big enough increase in heat from what we have had now for the last several days, that it will be a noticeable change for us. >> darren, i am going to throw you a little bit of a curveball and ask you a question i did not ask you before. what is the general altitude of the fog, compared with those fireworks kind of go off? i mean, they are guessing, the fireworks explode at a higher altitude? >> here is what i can be pretty good on the meteorology aspect of it and tell you that usually that deck of the marine layer will usually range from anywhere from about 800 or 900 feet up above to maybe 1500 or 2000 feet high. so it will depend on the level of that cloud cover, it will be fairly low on sunday. now how high do they shoot the fireworks? i am almost certain it is higher than that, but i cannot say how much higher. it is high enough so that it does get up to a level where it is going to be hitting those
6:19 am
clouds. >> gotcha. well, thank you. many californians are expecting to spend the holiday weekend camping. fire officials are pleading with the public to stay safe. this morning, reporter lloyd perez has some do's and don'ts. >> reporter: the holiday weekend means outdoor fun for the kim family and friends here at malibu creek state park. >> this is like for one hour for my home, so, it is perfect. >> reporter: they are lucky to get a campsite. for the second year in a row, campgrounds around the southland are booked solid as travel restrictions and risks have families taking staycations. but more people camping can also mean more fire risk. >> we have a lot of new campers who may not be aware of our fire restrictions. four lisa cox worked for the san bernardino national forest, where every school day, raters find abandoned, illegal campfires. >> we want to make sure that people understand that it is never okay to build a campfire on the ground in the forest. >> reporter: restrictions are already at high levels here with 85% of california in what
6:20 am
is considered extreme drought conditions. coupled with hot july 4th weather and low relative humidity. start an illegal campfire, she says the risk can last long after you had a home. >> even though you may think that you have completely drowned the campfire and put it out, it does not always go completely out. sometimes that fire can continue to burn underneath the soil weeks, or even months later. winds can pick up and it can be exposed by animals digging at it. maybe something that got left with it, food scraps, and they will try to dig, and it will turn into potentially an actual fire. four national forest and here in the santa monica mountains, fires are only allowed in part maintained campgrounds. wood or charcoal may not be allowed. you should ask when you arrive at the campground. >> that was lloyd perez reported. there are plenty of campsites in order california that her back open make sure that you go over the rules when you arrive.
