you see the bay bridge into the distance. back on treasure island. another beautiful view of the city and our last view gives us the scene from the stop the sa yestes rday. rc 7 der.grees warm or average. i will show you the difference in one second. napa is 14 degrees warmer than yesterday at this time. everyone got a warm-up. and nobody is freezing. it's cold enough, you want the jacket. the mid-30s in the north bay valleys. 41, san jose and the mid-30s in the east bay valleys as well. it's 14 degrees warmer right now than yesterday at this time. in napa. we're seven degrees warmer in heyward. as much as 9 degrees warmer in petaluma, and we're 2 degrees warmer in concord. yes, it's an improvement. you still want the jacket. we're not looking at any fog. we have some high clouds to the north and that is where we have been seeing light rain across mendocino county. watch into the afternoon right there. a few high clouds will stream in across the city, the peninsula and the south bay. it will be more blue skies

today than anything else. the clouds will probably give you a pretty sunset. the day time highs climb into the upper 60s and it will be 70s today in san jose. 68 in santa rosa. 67 for oakland. 68 in heyward. 69 for livermore. the numbers are a good five to seven degrees warmer than yesterday. another reason why today is a nice day of ill have issues at the beach. we told you about the beach hazard statements. goes until 1:00 today. if you're going to be at the beaches, stay aware being vigilant for any smoky waves, staying off of the coastal jedis, those things. the pacific is still active. the systems are pulled into the mask northwest. we're going to talk about that in a second. the main thing that matters at this point is the conversation. the storms are all going too far north. we can play this for through today. you can see the showers moving through northernmost california and not able to get to the bay area. we have a sunny day in store. when we look at the a

accumulated rainfall map, there is nothing on it. and that is being driven in by an atmospheric river. it's nice to see they redeveloped into the pacific and that they're pointing at the west coast this is going up to the pacific northwest. we're missing out on that one. over the next few days, that just kind of weakens and drifts down our way. it doesn't really deliver anything in the way of rain here. by wednesday, it's pretty much fizzled out. watch the accumulated rainfall the next few days. very tell-tale sign here where the rain keeps going into the pacific northwest. when we look at the accumulated rainfall from now through march 9th, we don't see a lot here. if we come in and play that through for a closer look here at home, we'll let that go through thursday. this thursday. and there is a subtle uptick on here where we get 0.001 showing up. there is an increase in clouds on wednesday and thursday. i don't have rain in the forecast at this point.

doesn't look that likely. in the long-range forecast, the models are saying hey, there is a chance you might get 0.001 of an inch. whether we get that or not, it doesn't matter. as we play that forward, we go through march 9th. it tells the same story. we might get light rain after that and looking ahead into next week. none of the systems look significant enough for any meaningful rain. so, just an interesting takeaway on how and where the rain is falling, taking us past the first week of march. there is the next week. right in front of us. the day time highs will climb into the mid-70s for the santa clara valley. we'll go up to 74 in san jose. 73 on tuesday. then we'll start to cool things back down again. by the weekend. you can see the increase in clouds that comes with the small chance of rain on wednesday and thursday. not the most imprsive, but still worth pointing out. an increase in clouds and slightly cooler. all right, back to you. north of california, they actually get fairly significant

rain. none of it reaches us. >> you know, it's classic in a la nina. the pacific northwest gets more rain than us, anyway, but in a la nina, that tends to get exaggerated and there are significant rain makers the next five days going up to washington state and wanting nothing to do with the bay area. >> thank you. >> yup. it's not unusual for a students rising to soak a career to enable them to help others. this week's schoolar is doing that and more. she's founded her own nonprofit. >> reporter: shanita's passion for serving others is a lifelong commitment for the 32- year-old new jersey-based social worker. her tumultuous childhood spent in and out of foster care in oakland. >> ever since i was a child, my mom struggled with substance abuse. >> reporter: shanita and her younger brother's and sisters struggled, too. >> i became a [ inaudible ]
