pushes the fog, pushes it inland, sunday is cooler. and sunday at 3:00, 4:00 in the afternoon you are going to go out and say, it's cold. the fog tonight pushes inland. has been the last couple of nights. that's the model pushes the fog into the east bay. look at it tomorrow morning, a lot of fog showed up out here toward livermore and concord and moraga along the beaches. there's your fog footprint for tomorrow morning. nice weekend. this weekend fast didn't it. you remember we had rain just a couple of days ago. early in the week we had rain. sunday, monday, into tuesday. tomorrow not a bad day. today is a warm day. tomorrow is off a few degrees. tomorrow more significant warming. don't change your plans. maybe a sprinkle too. if you get up towards heelsburg, our friends in fort

401k but would also make it easier to replay. >> let's say if you have a person in intense hardship and they have this 401k, what do they do, do they go into debt with their credit cards? people were offered a secondary line ticket for free if they buy one ticket and subscribe to that magazine. a third party website handling the ticket overcharged to cover some of the costs of the freebies. that's illegal. american express agreed to settle but did not admit wrong doing. >> there's more news ahead. ktv you u channel 2 news at 6:00 is next. and today we finally got
