you've got a frost advisory tomorrow and it turns into a freeze warning in the morning. let's look at the rest of the bay. go ahead and sweep that down and get down to the south bay so that we get everybody in. numbers will be in the low 40s for about everybody else and these are tuesday morning lows. this is the coldest you'll get for your part of the bay. san francisco in the low 40s and a cold morning pretty much anywhere. wednesday morning, new year's day, it does get a little better and then it will be much better by thursday and friday as we'll start to see temperatures begin to increase. that covers the cold in the morning. let's look at this possibility for rain. another system is coming our way which gets here by the end of the week, doesn't look super impressive. keep your eye on the timestamp down there. we're looking at thursday into friday morning. you see a really good looking cold front coming across and if we watch it progress onshore, it kind of

inch of rain in the north bay. i wouldn't go to the bank on that. let's give this more time to play out. that's where things stand now as a possibility. we'll have much more clarity the next couple days because we're back here looking at that, more on that as we get closer. in the meantime, bundle up. the next few mornings it's going to be cold. back to you. >> thank you, darren. coming up, recovery efforts are underway after south korea's worst civilian air disaster on saturday, what aviation experts say may have caused it. it's a 49ers loaded "gameday" tonight after the late news. the lions are coming to town, not much to play for, but revenge is on their minds. >> we're bringing everything we got. >> we'll dive into the match-up and much more with our insider. >> i felt good about my picks and that doesn't mean you have to. plus we're breaking down the best plays from the last calendar year. who do you think grabbed the top spot? you
