about 11:00am this morning. it's talking about max winds at 70, but the big thing to take away from this is as a tropical storm, even all this moisture being thrown up to the north to the south. it just is like a bug that gets squashed. it just starts to throw all over the place and we'll get some shrapnel up here. it looks like in the bay area in terms of some overnight early morning monday morning, thunder showers thrown in the mix. a look how quickly this thing moves marches right looks like sequoia national park. it's passing as a tropical depression. so the national hurricane center may stop following this and it will be the local weather forecast offices that do. but all of this moisture is still here and locally. once it landfalls like this, it starts to become locally severe weather. so the atmosphere is to absorb all this kind of the good news for this is it's being pushed quickly out of our reach here. so won't be an agitator for a long period of time. as you can see, it's an easter, oregon already by 11:00am projections by monday, however, will fill some of these back effects back here

in the bay area with some scattered showers and thunder showers. and even the moisture lingering a little bit potentially the tuesday morning. let's watch this. go forward. marine layer clears here some afternoon cloud cover. how much you'd get in the east bay is going to determine your highs, the deeper moisture off towards the east but will put in here an isolated little showers, a possibility as well as tonight, deeper moisture to the east right up here. this is what i'm talking about. that's your monday morning concentration the north a little bit off towards the east bay as well. but that scattered shower and thundershower activity there. it's going to feel kind of like the monsoon kind of that tropical feel a little bit is what will have with that rain. so it's not going to be like a winter storm, but for the folks in southern california, this is probably what it is. it's it's a a really bad winter storm with heavy winds. it close to hurricane strength. you could call it because that's what it will be. except that will be more tropical in nature. obviously. now we go out to tuesday. there's still some leftover moisture as late as tuesday. here's the crossover to 12:00am. and as we get a

little later, there's a little brush by we might get a few leftover showers into tuesday morning. but after that things clear out, this is what the radar seeing up towards our north a little bit in the way of some rain. but a lot of that's probably evaporating before it strikes the ground. this is our beauty shot here of the east bay shoreline. 2 different types of moisture. it's our marine layer. this is cold dan stamp air. that's what the ground. that's our typical marine layer and up to the north. that's more the tropical air. that's in the higher levels of the atmosphere for today. let's call it 73, san francisco, verbal clouds and mild 79 for oakland. 85 san jose. again, you can't rule out of local little shower going on here. breaking this down for a little bit. clouds return, isolate a little shower again. can't rule that out. more humid 90's. well, inland tonight, monday we got cloudy, isolated shower overnight tomorrow morning. however, morning scattered thunder showers with the concentration, the east and the north bay. then for the next week ahead, sunny and hot inland as we see the mid 90's return again. well, we've got

the 90's far to the east and we have some 90's even poking up and the north bay, too. but a lot of that's going to be contingent on how much sunshine you get because it looks like this next cloud cover will fill in the clearing skies relatively quickly. we'll have more on that 4 zone forecast. we'll get more to hillary as we progress the broadcast stephanie. all right, dave, thanks for tracking all that for and now to the latest on the tragedy in maui. >> the governor of hawaii says it will take years and billions of dollars to rebuild the death toll now stands at 114. that number is expected to rise as the search for victims continues. >> well, residents came together on friday singing their love for luh-high-nuh. they're asking the governor to prioritize them in the rebuilding process. some locals fear wealthy tourists will become the focus of recovery efforts.

scattered clouds later today. expect that to fill in later on. oh, there it is. all the deep moisture with hillary, the eye where they measure all of this stuff from. he's not even here yet. now you still can have hurricane force winds. they may get that in portions of la particularly gusts can easily do that, even though by that point it will weaken even further. the heavy rains are talking about 2 inches of rain during the actual day today for much of san diego. la in some of the inland communities, the inland empire say in the coachella valley. now let's get a quick shot of what the projections are with tropical storm hilary marching north by this evening. this is about where it will be in the la basin, say 5 o'clock or so. then overnight it takes a beeline right into northern nevada. it crosses over about sequoia national park. so a lot of the parks are going to hit real hard, yosemite sequoia, relatively less than tahoe. but you'll still see heavy shower activity with this. and the good news is it logging at there at that point. but it continues further to the north

later on now, some of this moisture left over in the bay area. so we've got to keep that in our forecast as a mention, quick checking temperatures. we've got the 60's right now. 72 for antioch. we have the skies opening up temporarily later on. the cloud cover comes in and that will determine high temperatures today. the oakland a's host the orioles a game time 107. we have kind of variable clouds, the clouds roll on in upper 70's little bit humid conditions. one of the folks in baltimore going to be used to that are not in august. i don't know. west-southwest winds at about 10. the breakdown for you today. 86 at high noon by 3. 93 turning mostly cloudy. the best chance to probably see those widespread showers and thunder showers. probably tomorrow morning that will favor the north and east bays. we'll have more on that long-range forecast for in the 4 zone in just a bit. stephanie, they thank you. >> and breaking news this morning, tropical storm hilary is also having major impacts on bay area. airports so far hundreds of flights have already been canceled. kron four's tiffany justice tracking it for us. she's live

that's the last statement. the folks of the national hurricane center will probably they're saying they're going to the last one here for more prognostications are saying they're saying it's done being tropical or becoming extra tropical. it throws a back to the locals. now we have all this moisture. it's still in place. nothing magical happens by these definitions. and so the local environment has told jorg all of that's what means scattered chance of afternoon evening thunderstorms kind of business and even locally severe weather, you get enough heating. however, the prevailing winds are going to send the bulk of the moisture towards the north. good news. also, though, for fires in northern california pier near the oregon border, you can get some rain, really everybody's going get some rain along this, too. might help clear out the air to help out. now the perspective, here's where it is. you'll see run the western perspective. typically with tropical systems running on the west side in the northern hemisphere, you get subsidence that's falling here. that doesn't work well in terms of generating rain shower going forward with this. we get exhaust, if you will, coming from the storm system. that's going to be this afternoon tonight. can't

rule out a stray shower, but there's the role action there to our parks in california. going up to the north. now, it's way past us to the north. but behind it, it throws back some moisture so we might get some scattered thunder showers. this latest model run is not as enthused about that, though. so looks like almost by pet snubbing us. it looks like and then we get to tuesday morning. still that chance with this air mass in place of seeing a last minute shower. so here's what it looks like on radar. this is well before it gets wet on the south. now, but we are seeing some radar echoes around santa rosa. again, it's fighting through some dry air. so for today, 73 san francisco variable clouds and mild 79 oakland, 85 san jose. and our situation is clouds returning this afternoon after we open up the skies here, an isolated shower, humid 90's, inland cloudy tonight into tomorrow morning, scattered showers and thunder showers will say still the possibility is there. but the placement doesn't look as favorable. the latest update and the next week, sunny and hot inland. however, next
