the embarcadero this morning is dave spahr bopping away in the weather center. but looking at conditions outside looking pretty chilly out there. told you're right now, i don't know why. and i just it's just a feeling that music put you in the mood ida's right now morning, stephanie. good morning, everybody. and i'm going. >> fog is what we're talking about this morning. not too bad, though, for the runners except they had to traverse across here, golden gate bridge runners yet here. so i think they're all done. some are coming back in the side of skews me start there. covered up here, as you will notice ground fog still an issue that tends to take a while to clear on half moon bay. also the same scenario these of the last stops to see the clearing out pictures. so we know the inland areas are going well. they're already being inland warming up already to east bay shoreline. we got to work on and then we'll get their 4 corner states. this is where we get the monsoon popping up. hasn't ventured too far north yet but are longer range forecast models. they do show some of that cloud cover getting into the mountains a little bit next couple of days. let's watch the pulsating everything. first of

all, clear out this marine layer. we're back to mostly sunny, maybe a few scattered clouds for san francisco and up to the spot of the mountains out of the way. some scattered clouds, not much more action than that. back to the marine layer in the morning. fog degree to early morning commuters. watch out maybe some coastal drizzle with that and to cloud cover is holding together off towards the east. it bubbles up a little bit more so a few little showers going on. be nice to get one over yosemite and everything. but there's still that chance for mid-level moisture. and even to venture into parts of the bay area midweek. again, it will be some variable clouds you might be able to count on for tuesday wednesday, current numbers, we have the lower east of the east bay hills, upper 50's line of the east bay shoreline. 52 santa rosa. 55 from 53 for san francisco. so for today we got the bay fog scattered clouds may be lingering for san francisco. we've got 70's for the bay near 90 going on well inland. so a nice decoupling of those numbers. there in the microclimates checking-in. so for this week ahead, more that same kind of drill on the

little wrinkle in here is tuesday. wednesday might have some scattered clouds up there. the monsoon that will be coming from the east now in the mid layers of the atmosphere near about 90 for those highs. by the way, next weekend. they clouds mostly sunny, going on inland. we've got 70's for the bay. again, 90 ish inland, maybe start to see a little bit development. a heat spike off to that point. we'll get what we get a little closer. 65 san francisco morning. fog and scattered clouds. 71 for oakland. 84 san jose looking good on that front. but notice how noticeably not as hot it is as we're seeing in the east bay today, lower to middle 90's. however, east bay shoreline still staying into the 70's. we'll take a closer look at all of this in your 4 zone forecast. and that extended and a bit. stephanie, thanks very much, dave. >> on the peninsula, one person is dead after being struck by cow train. the accident shutting down service in both directions in palo alto last night. the tracks reopening again this morning. the train was going northbound when it collided with the person near west meadow drive.

>> good morning. and welcome back to kron. 4 morning news. everybody. a live shot coming in from a half moon bay. still that ground fog hanging around a little bit. and this is a slow clear here. but we're also looking at the same kind of situation, the east bay

hills. where we can see down the east bay shoreline. what would be all that to landscaping. now we can't see anything as you can see with the fog in place. you just get a couple 1000 feet in the atmosphere to different atmosphere engirely. and that's going to be the case. it looks like just about all week with our traditional marine layer coming on in. and that's kind of a nice saving grace for at least a lot of the bay area. it every day brings in that moisture level keeps the ground from drying out too much going forward because will be enough clearing during the day for the sun to do its magic heading up to tahoe. this is what it looks like. got 87 tomorrow tuesday. 82 87 on wednesday, plow puff thrown in there deliberately because we do see summary our monsoon moisture coming in the mid layers of the atmosphere. that's a different type of moisture in the atmosphere. will we get as the cold marine layer from our ocean? this coming in from the desert southwest. and that has to be quite hot. 68 for any oxford right now. 61 conquered 60 for

livermore. still in the upper 50's along the east bay shoreline. 53 up there to santa rosa. 54 for san francisco. so marine layer clears out. we go back to mostly sunny, the progress of that monsoon. not part. okay. very impressive. even long. the mountain chain there we get back again to the marine layer coming tomorrow morning. might even have some wet roads at the coast, clearing out by the afternoon and maybe even some sprinkles working up there in the morning or in the afternoon. monday was early as monday up there around tahoe and points towards the south. with all of that. now in the bigger scope of things, there's the possibility to mention a little air mass afternoon thunder shower or shower going on with really want to see thunder lightning. but it might come with the package. but the possibility is there just about each day for the week ahead. this pulsating is happening with daytime heating coming in from the middle air moisture for the 4 corner states. again, typical time for the season to see this go forward. a lot of that looks like it will stay away from our neck of the woods until tuesday. wednesday might get some of the way of

some scattered clouds to make note of here. 63 san francisco will keep the lower 60's along the coast. there. 72 for burlingame. to the south. most readings, our only in the 80's. i say only because when we get a good heat spike, these numbers can sometimes pop into the 90's. so for july, not too bad, slightly off of our average highs but close 83 for san jose. 82 for cupertino. upper 70's line up the east bay shoreline, livermore valley. 91 looks like 91 also walnut creek, concord for a high today. 92 you folks had a record low yesterday, a 55 in the morning. so shows how far that marine layer got. 68 for berkeley vallejo. it's 68 87 for fairfield, 83 napa. let's do an 86 there for santa rosa. but those lower 60's still along the coast. 7 day forecast through the 80's. we going near about 90. here's the some of these cloud tops here for tuesday wednesday because of that monsoon want to just throw that in there and maybe warming up a little bit into next weekend. stephanie, thanks very much.

happen in terms of with what happened in january 6th. and we saw that during these hearings. i was going to let you watch it later. what we had. and this past weekend culmination of that, which is after all the plot. after all the plan, doctor, after the big lie after that after crazy white house meeting where they try to point a sidney powell as a special counsel. and she voted machines after they try to correct that the fbi justice department after they try to pressure mike pence and into an 8 state legislators and state state officials. he comes out this. the the the president has summoned the mob. he knows that there are and, you know, is that they're dangerous. they're if he wanted to march with them to capitol hill. he said in the capitol hill and during that time period, all did miss it. watch fox news and then call sent jurors and rudy giuliani

and deliberately choose not to do any taking action to stop the insurrection. >> in mike, you know, do you think that the evidence presented by the hearing our during the hearing, i should say, do you think that they change the minds of voters out there when it comes to the up to upcoming midterm elections or even the next presidential election. >> to >> get that. it is it is getting through to republican voters. there been a number of focus groups going out there that where the where trump's ability to get them back in the fold for another elect around isn't a strong as it used to be. it's still there. there's still a lot of people out there. it peepers the proud boys. the big lie. elected officials and people who are running for office across the country. so it's still there, but it's

we're going to have september hearings. and i think that the more of those people come out, the more the more damning it's going to be for trump in in terms of what merrick garland is going to be looking at in the very near future. but whether to indict him for essentially. failing to do that. they'll need to be do the job as president participating in a seditious conspiracy, obstruction of justice and attempting to interfere with the electoral college. and last question for you might know, i'd like to switch to state politics here. you know, we know governor newsome. he put out an ad in several texas newspapers. >> criticizing governor abbott abbott for his views on abortion and gun control. this comes after newsom. he launched a tv ad in florida is do you feel like these are signs that he's preparing for a presidential run? >> i would say that these are signs of that, that he is preparing for the possibility that if it should occur, but

he will run for pres%dent united states in 2024. yes. all right, ok, stay tuned and see what happens. thanks so much. crime for political analyst michael yaki for u.s. live all the way from washington, d.c., we appreciate your insight this morning. >> okay. we'll be right back.
