frost at 35 degrees. look for that. high pressure sticks around today, but then it is gone. this guy comes around, you see this pattern a million times. i mean, this is what happens. the low bumps in. typically if all goes well, this low is far enough south and moist enough that we get rain. this low is not far enough south and not moist enough so we get cooler. that pattern would be productive for rainfall, but that system coming in doesn't have it. here is what it will do. cloud cover tomorrow. there at 4:00 on thursday. it is coming from the south. so you get a little more of an on shore flow in the upper atmosphere. then more clouds noon on friday. and here comes saturday. and here comes sunday. a few clouds right? nothing more. 63 in fairfield. cooler tomorrow because of the clouds. cooler on friday. it just levels off. you will see that in the five- day forecast. tomorrow, the seventh spare the air day in a row. 65 in mountain view. 65 los gatos.
