that tells you there is a good amount of high pressure holding down on the atmosphere. it is pushing down and keeping the temperatures relatively warm. though we do cool down noticeably today, it is still going to be kind of hot. it was 97 yesterday in san jose. today will be 89. it'll be a lot better there. but the places which are not going to get as much of a huge turnaround today as everywhere else, inland contra costa county. if we were continuing to use our window on the bay, this is from mount diablo, looking over concord. you'll cool down today but only six to seven degrees. instead of the low 100s, you'll be low to mid 90s. still hot but you're out of heat advisory territory. current numbers are pretty good. 60 in redwood city. 72 in concord. this is where we're going for daytime highs today. mid 90s over here. i want to know everybody's numbers. this is the visualization. well above average yesterday. that's friday late afternoon.

another ten degrees tomorrow because of a weak little weather system sitting out here. it would love to try to bring us rain, just doesn't look like it is going to be able to do that. maybe a few clouds tomorrow morning at this time. you might get rain in sonoma county, nothing measurable. middle of next week, san jose, back to 88 by wednesday of next week. as we look at the microclimate, same story. big drop today, from mid 90s inland to 79 tomorrow. you really feel this tomorrow. much relief coming, justin. it is good today. a lot better tomorrow. >> i was going to say, i turned on the a/c last night. i couldn't take it. >> you're not the only one. gives me a lot of relief for people today. we stair step down, today is better but tomorrow is drastically better. >> open the windows? >> great idea. >> thanks, darren. >> see ya later. after seemingly all the momentum shifted in favor of the boston celtics, it is an even series and we are heading back

left. how'd he make that? 13 in the fourth quarter. he could have had even more. he fell. couldn't believe there was no foul. fourth quarter, shot clock winding down for boston. marcus smart slips away, knocks down a big three. celtics wouldn't score again for nearly 4 minutes. >> oh, he puts it in! >> curry now reads the double-team perfectly, finds klay thompson for the triple, and the dubs take the lead late under o minuteto go. tougnight for draymondends curr got it. that was the dagger. put golden state up by six, and they never looked back. warriors win, 107-97, in a crucial game four to tie the series 2-2. how about this stat line? curry, 43 points, 10 rebounds, 4 assists. safe to say, he put the team on his back. >> it was a much-needed win. game we had to have.

loaded the bases. luke maile hits it into right field for runners in third to score easily. the runner on third, guardians steal this one, 3-2. now ten straight losses for the oakland a's. tough times over there. not for the golden state warriors. series is even at two. it is heading back to the bay, and it is all good times right now for golden state. we even had some mvp chants for steph curry at the free-throw line late, and they were on the road. that does it for sports. still to come in the next half hour, students in the bay area and all over the country really demanding action on gun violence. how they plan to make their voices heard. the aids memorial quilt about to make history in san francisco. one of the first people to stitch the quilttseginni re se. we'll be right
