winds were watching. it probably won't pose a fire danger in and of itself. but we are looking at some winds, maybe perhaps reminiscent of what we had a little bit on friday. just a pop that happens. here's a a live shot of what's going on. half moon bay's you can see pretty much sunshine weather. we're not getting much in the way of winds for now. this afternoon, they'll kick up a little bit. we'll show you the projections and a bit. but we've seen that low pick up. so all the cloud cover is gone. we're left with the clear that will be the case as we go into the new week on balance, lower 30's up to the north bay here ballay who 36. 39 to bottle. 45 san francisco livermore 30 to 45 going on for any auc, not much to see in the cloud except a couple little bit of the ways some clouds early in the day. so sunny today overnight. yeah, we'll see a little bit the way up to few scattered clouds working their magic. maybe a little fog by monday morning, but looks pretty good for monday. then again at night again, some passing clouds a possibility with all of that. but generally speaking, mostly sunny for the early part of the week. it's the mid part of the week. things get kind of

interesting. we were hoping maybe to scrounge up some rain showers by midweek that doesn't look very likely. now, here's the pop. i want to point out here notice the arrows all do from the north. it gets going overnight into monday. then it gets quite active as we go into monday. so be kind of breezy a bit. it will start a little bit this afternoon, but will be breezy a bit with all of this and will be the offshore direction. but we have enough insulation here that we probably won't have much of an issue in terms of direct the fire threat for today. mostly sunny, but still cool. lower to middle 60's at work here. and that's with all that sunshine that we didn't have as much yesterday early in the week, sunny, with some minor warming will do 70 by tuesday. that front that we're hoping to bring something a brush us with some scattered clouds, maybe. but the more important issue is maybe some breezy conditions, slightly cooling and that takes us toward the end of the week week to recover weekend. looks more interesting as maybe will be able to scrounge up some rain showers. 59 san francisco, 61 for oakland and 63 san jose. again, that's what all day sun

going on here. and this is what it is on the big board. not a lot of temperature moving compared to yesterday. wait for monday and tuesday to see these things to start moving a bit better. now again, we'll talk more about what's going on midweek, but also more importantly into the weekend for maybe that shot of some rain in the extended. well, thanks, dave. >> turning now to our covid-19 coverage this morning. it's been 2 years since california declared a covid state of emergency. and now new research from a team of scientists led by experts at uc san diego say they've confirmed the virus's origin. jaime chambers talked to one of the experts about their findings. >> its research that's been speculated that by nearly everyone on the planet, where did sars-cov 2 come from now? a team of researchers from ucsd ever least 2 papers. they believe identify the origins of covid-19, the virus that turned our world upside down. doctoral student jonathan p car says all of the evidence points to the origins of the coronavirus starting wet

will be elsewhere too. i don't think this will be enough for a wind advisory. one has been posted at least not yet. so watching the middle of the week here it is about their that was supposed to be the little hope for maybe picking up some rain showers instead will probably get from all of this is maybe a few stray clouds. but more importantly, some cooler temperatures beyond that and maybe a little bit and the way some winds by cut some of them in the mountains, though this is juice here, though. this is starts to get to saturday night. we're still working on timing on this because this is way upstream. but it looks like there's the systems coming our way for the weekend. and shortly there be on into early the following week. so there's some hope still scrounging up some rain as we look ahead in the forecast. 59 san francisco, the 4 zone forecast keeping into the 50's of the coast. all the lots of sun upper 50's along the bay side. 61 foster city 62 palo alto and in the south bay, only in the lower 60's. that's right. with all the sun. that's all. we're the one. 63 san jose. 63 for cupertino, lower 60's east bay shoreline livermore and

that what's 20 over less than one? 20 over 80 is actually normal. but yes, a lot of people don't that they hear these numbers that really don't know how to interpret them. so i will explain. first of all, pope oes pressure is the difference between that systolic blood pressure, which is that upper number and mine is the diastolic pressure, which is the bottom number. but like i said, a lot of people don't know what those 2 things mean. so i'll so the think of your circulatory system has a very cysts, sophisticated pump in pipe system. so here we have a pumpkin so when your heart contracts, it's going to squeeze out a lot of blood into the i o at the aorta into the arteries. it requires a lot of pressure. so think of systolic pressure is turning on the faucet. all that all that water is going to go gushing into the pipes. and

then when it relax is. then the the pressure that's going through the pipes. that's your diastolic pressure. and think of those 2 as an analogy. now, when they diameter of your pipes, kind of maybe getting a more narrow, maybe gets clogged up with with gun and then it's going to require a lot more pressure to get water through your pipes. so hopefully that helps explain it. explain us what why, why exactly does pulse pressure matter? so polls pressure matters because they there is a correlation between the occurrence of more heart disease, cardiovascular events. so you want to look at so to figure it out. take your supposing your blood pressure is one 20 over 80. so the

difference between those 2 numbers is 40. you want that pressure to be that pulse pressure to be anywhere between 30 and 40. if you're sixty-year-old years old or older, particularly of a if your. >> polls pressure is 60 or above. that means your vessels are stiffer. they're more damage. so if you have a pulse pressure, you have a blood pressure of one 40 over 80, that means your pulse pressure is 60 and above a lot a lot of people don't really look at that. they're just looking that that overall number and that could be deceiving because i've actually heard clinicians say, 0, one, 30 over when 30 over 70. that's really that's not too bad, right? but then you look at that and the polls pressure is is way too high. so really pay

attention to the polls pressure. and then what does that result in for for your are, you know, when it's high like that, you say that that's when your arteries, stephan. >> what exactly can that cause? so when your arteries step they face to often as you get older and and that makes it very hard for the lead to get into? well, first of all, you need really good elasticity for you are for blood to go in and out of your arteries. now when they get stiff, they're not going to be able to get as much lead through those arteries. your heart really has to pump hard to get enough blood through them. so increased blood pressure, the possibility of rupturing that artery because of the pressure is so high. so that's why when you look at blood pressure and pulse pressure, there is a higher incidents of cardiovascular

events. mortality valve disease. do you have any tips taking your blood pressure at home? because that's one of your lifestyle changes to monitor your blood pressure that something, you know, you can get a a blood pressure cuff the, you know, walgreens or cvs something like that really quickly. i've found it difficult for myself to do it at home. any tips on how to make it a little easier know that you're actually doing it correctly. >> the yes, and a lot of people actually don't do it correctly. you want to make sure first when you take your blood pressure, your very relaxed. >> you're sitting down and your feet are flat on the floor. your back is support it and your arm is at heart height and resting on something you're not just holding it out there. >> you want urinate before because if you have a full bladder that will also increase your blood pressure. you want to rest. maybe 5 to 10 minutes quietly. no talking

before you take your blood pressure or else, it will elevated. okay. so those are kind of the the the quick tips and all the pressure taking. definitely. you want to make sure you also take them in both because if you see a differential of 10 between your right and the left, that can also be an indicator that you have some type of a blockage. okay. okay. you also, of course, eating a healthy diet, maintaining a healthy weight exercising regularly. those are all your your always each and every week, which we always appreciate. can you find a little bit more information about this in your new book? >> yes, you can. and all about eating healthy and how to to reduce your blood pressure. is karen owoc dot com is where you can go find a link to the book as well as amazon dot com. karen, thank you so much for being with us. you're welcome. we'll be right back.

>> welcome back. it is 8.44 on this sunday morning. it's looking pretty nice outside. it's fine. i'm finally like seeing the blue skies out their days far as get a little bit more detail on your forecast as it is a little chilly out there this morning. hey, dave. yeah, good well, good morning, everybody. and that will be the case even into this afternoon. you know, the temperatures won't be as lofty as you think they would be because of all the sunshine we've got going on. sfo. no delays this morning. >> just blue skies as we see the east bay shoreline as well. beautiful bay going on in the background, no intrusion. we don't see any major systems really going on until the middle of the week. and all it's going to give us is just some winds, cooler temperatures slightly. maybe some scattered clouds.

question mark on that. we're hoping earlier to maybe get some rain showers out of that end of the week. looks more interesting, though. that's we can hope on now. temperatures. 38 santa rosa. 39 for napa off to the east bay. 37 livermore. 51 already racing ahead there. 44 going on for san jose and 46, san francisco. let's get back to those winds, though, in the short term as we approach midnight will be a bit of a breeze this afternoon overnight into tomorrow. here comes the spilling into the offshore winds that there's been no wind advisory that's been posted. the thinking is this is right below the threshold, but it will be something you'll notice throughout your monday and continuing all the way will tuesday overnight here you can see again loyally out of the north. you'll feel that the east bay in the north bay, that's going that long range forecast here. here's that little system dropping south. maybe some mountain snows, but just a slight reduction of temperatures. it gets more interesting by the weekend. there's a shot of maybe getting some rain in here and successive system by tuesday. so hopefully we'll get an

answer from all of that. all right. temperatures in the 4 zone forecast coming like this. 59 san francisco keeping along the 50's of the coast. no real movement happening there yet. 59 for burlingame to the south. 61 foster city, 62 palo alto, even the south bay temperatures in the lower 60's at work here. 63 san jose also cupertino, lower 60's. also on the east bay shoreline, pleasanton livermore at 62, along with 63 walnut creek concord. 64 59 for berkeley. 59 also billy one. 65 fairfield. napa at 63. these are spots that will probably popping about 70. maybe not do it tomorrow, but definitely by tuesday and return to that as we get towards the end of the week. santa rose about 65 still chilly at the coast. here we go. 70 on tuesday, slight reduction in getting back to about 70 by friday with the interruption of that system, which mainly bring cooler temperatures and winds. meanwhile, lows will be into the 30's. yeah, we're still winter and some 40's to along with 40's hugging the coast.

>> for your health this morning, you might be familiar with your blood pressure. but do you know what those numbers really mean? i definitely do not. and now there's a 3rd pressure that's important to keep track of as well. our health expert karen owoc here to explain this 3rd blood pressure for a scare. and i've always wondered bp one, 80 over 70 means. is that is that correct? one 60 over 80. is that what's what? when 20 over less than one 20 over 80 is actually normal. but yes, a lot of people don't that they hear these numbers that really don't know how to interpret them. so i will explain. first of all, pope oes pressure is the difference between that systolic blood pressure, which is that upper number and mine is the diastolic pressure, which is the bottom number. but like i said, a lot of people don't know what those 2 things mean. so i'll so the think of your circulatory system has a very cysts,

sophisticated pump in pipe system. so here we have a pumpkin so when your heart contracts, it's going to squeeze out a lot of blood into the i o at the aorta into the arteries. it requires a lot of pressure. so think systolic pressure is turning on the faucet. all that all that water is going to go gushing into the pipes. and then when it relax is. then the the pressure that's going through the pipes. that's your diastolic pressure. and think of those 2 as an analogy. now, when they diameter of your pipes, kind of maybe getting more narrow, maybe gets clogged up with gun and then it's going to require a lot more pressure to get water through your pipes. so hopefully that helps explain it. explain us what why, why

exactly does pulse pressure matter? so polls pressure matters because they there is a correlation between the occurrence of more heart disease, cardiovascular events. so you want to look at so to figure it out. take your supposing your blood pressure is one 20 over 80. so the difference between those 2 numbers is 40. you want that pressure to be that pulls pressure to be anywhere between 30 and 40. if you're sixty-year-old years old or older, particularly of a if your pulse pressure is 60 or above, that means your vessels are stiffer. they're more damage. so if you have a pulse pressure, you have a blood pressure of one 40 over 80, that means your pulse pressure

is 60 and above a lot a lot of people don't really look at that. they're just looking that that overall number and that could be deceiving because i've actually heard clinicians say, 0, one, 30 over when 30 over 70. that's really that's not too bad, right? but then you look at that and the polls pressure is is way too high. so really pay attention to the polls pressure. and then what does that result in for for your are, you know, when it's high like that, you say that that's when your arteries, stephan, what exactly can that cause? so when your arteries step they face to often as you get older and and that makes it very hard for the lead to get into. well, first of all, you need really good elasticity for you are for blood to go in and out of your arteries. now when they get stiff, they're

not going to be able to get as much bled through those arteries. your heart really has to pump harder to get enough blood through them. so increased blood pressure, the possibility of rupturing that artery because of the pressure is so high. so that's why when you look at blood pressure, pulse pressure, there is a higher incidence of cardiovascular events. mortality valve disease. do you have any tips taking your blood pressure at home? because that's one of your lifestyle changes to monitor your blood pressure that something, you know, you can get a a blood pressure cuff the, you know, walgreens or cvs something like that really quickly. i've found it difficult for myself to do it at home. any tips on how to make it a little easier know that you're actually doing it correctly. >> the yes, and a lot of people actually don't do it correctly. you want to make sure first when you take your blood pressure, your very relaxed.

>> you're sitting down and your feet are flat on the floor. your back is support it and your arm is at heart height and resting on something you're not just holding it out there. >> you want urinate before because if you have a full bladder that will also increase your blood pressure. you want to rest. maybe 5 to 10 minutes quietly. no talking before you take your blood pressure or else, it will elevated. okay. so those are kind of the the the quick tips and all the pressure taking. definitely. you want to make sure you also take them in both because if you see a differential of 10 between your right and the left, that can also be an indicator that you have some type of a blockage. okay. okay. you also, of course, eating a healthy diet, maintaining a healthy weight exercising regularly. those are all your your always each and every week, which we always appreciate. can you find a little bit more information about this in your new book?
