be sliding a little bit of moisture up towards the satellite and radar. you can se showers making their way closer and closer to the bay area. the bulk of the activity is staying along the coast. so far it is not outside the realm of possibility that some of that could sneak up into santa cruz county, santa clara county as w zoom in for a closer look at futurecast. it is indicating that possibility. this forecast model is likely overdone to a high degree but it represents essentially the wettest scenari and basically a root line from gilroy to santa cruz. our threa of thunderstorms and dry lightning is essentially zero, which is good news for this scenario. even the threat of sprinkles will be done by mid day. tomorrow is the fog backs up to the coast we will still see lingering clouds associated with the remnants of eugene but that will not slow down the warm-up for this weekend. look at livermore climbing the rolle
