hundreds of strikes up across the sierra nevada and some heavy rain. this is going to play out over the next couple of days, a lot of monsoonal moisture up there. doesn't look like it will get to the bay area but heading there, take extra care. it's coming down especially in the afternoon hours. this evening, mostly clear inland mild temperatures mainly into the 70s inside the bay we'll see some patchy fog sneaking through the golden gate. and at the coast cool and breezy, winds kicking up over 20 miles an hour and fog the story at the beaches today. again kind of hugging the coast getting ready to move onshore. it will be in place tomorrow but it will break back towards the beaches. that means sunshine in the valleys and comfortable temperatures. 86 livermore, 78 san jose, and about 58 degrees some patchy fog into pacifica. next few days we'll watch those temperatures cool down a little throughout the weekend but really it looks like a nice weekend ahead. as we head toward the middle of next week we'll watch those temperatures coming off a little belo

and we're going see some moisture, circulating right into some of the sierra nevada locations heading into next couple days. because of this, we're expecting thunderstorms this weekend from lake tahoe down towards yosemite and las vegas could see possibility of thunderstorms. and scattered on saturday and sunday. so fur f.you're making plans for weekend keep this in mind. overnight tonight here in the bay area, fog along coast and around the bay. and temperatures into 50s except antioch. 60 degrees. taking a look at highs for friday. they're coming up just a little bit. away from the coastline. 83 degrees in san jess yeah. sunnivale, milpitas, 82 for you. 87 in los gatos. and goits tok a mild day around san mateo. 76 degrees, 80 in menlo park. low to mid-60s near the coastline. you'll see fog again hugging the coast. daily city, gray skies and 62 degrees, welcome to summer in daily city. 66 degrees in downtown. and north bay, you're looking at low 80s for santa rosa and napa. 78 in san rafael. 60s at beaches, east bay communities, 72 oakland. inland areas warm day. you're looking at m

just moving in over the sierra nevada. this is the area that will be seeing the thunderstorms developing over the weekend. from south lake tahoe to yosemite down towards las vegas this is going to be the case. it's monsoonal moisture getting repeated again on sunday. and some of the moisture is actually going to move its way out towards the san benito areas so isolated showers or thunderstorms may develop here. and sunday morning so if you're traveling to that area, on sunday just keep this in mind. temperatures into 50s tonight except for antioch, 61 degrees and we'll see fog filling into valleys as well like napa and santa rosa starting to push in towards oakland area. tomorrow afternoon, looking for temperatures into upper 70s to mid-80s, 80 in san jose, close to normal at this time of the year. 79 santa clara. 84 in saratoga. you'll see some high clouds moving in filtering the sun at times. and 77 degrees in palo alto and redwood city. coastal areas, stuck in fog but there may be sunny breaks. 64 degree hz in half moon

but look at this area in the sierra nevada. this is what we call monsoonal moisture.ometimes it can be dry, it's just a wind shift. but the wind shift is pulling moisture all the way north. and what's going to happen, we have thunderstorms up here on the south side of the lake and the east side. what we're going to see tomorrow, is more of this moisture infiltrating the sierra nevada and some of it could spill our way into the nevada valley. maybe something in the livermore valley could see a thundershower in the afternoon. these are the highs from today. not bad. a little cooler than yesterday. especially up in santa rosa. just a real nice weather pattern. we had a real mild subtle pattern that's been with us all week. it stays that way expect for tropical moisture as we head into sunday. if we change these around really for the far inland bay valleys. 98% of us wouldn't notice much. we'll get to it but here's the forecast for fog in the morning. look familiar? that's what it was like this morning. burns off at the coast. plenty of sunshine and temperatures warm up.

this picture, the smoke is beginning to pull out toward the valley, toward the west slope of the sierra nevada. you can see the plume, see how it's tilted off. that's good news for the local residents. because as the wind kicks up it will push the plume off into the distance. it'll defuse much more rapidly and be a better health situation for those around and even out in the valleys as it blows out with those winds. winds right now are blowing about 10 to 15 miles per hour in the area. they have just come up out in fairfield, i have a wind west at nine and i have some winds in the area up to 15. those winds are west-southwest. that's good news for the smoke plume. i'll be back here, we'll look at this again and we'll also look at your five day. >>> and ken sasaki sent us pictures, he was close enough to capture the flames. if you have pictures of the fire or other breaking news send it to us. just go to photos @ ktvu.com. >>> tesoro has agreed to pay fines for air pollution. the settlement covers 76 incidents. they include exceeding standards for smog and pollutants. and failure to repair leak

and that includes the sierra nevada. e will look for the thunderstorm activity from the northern and southern sierra, in fact the flash flood watch throughout the day today. we saw the thunderstorms yesterday. so if you are traveling today or tomorrow, be aware of that. we can see some very heavy downpours from time to time in the mountains, the foothills. and by tomorrow, sunday, the focus shifts closer to home. really the south bay and portions of monterey. so not only is slight chance of a thunderstorm, but more likely the high clouds, the mid-level clouds and maybe the muggy feel to the air here as a piece of energy here drifts to the west. so this afternoon we will see more moisture in the sierra, the spine of the sierra so that's going to be the setup for the weekend. 98 in fresno. back home upper 70s to low 80s. 80 san jose. and san mateo 75. san francisco a little bit below average, about you with partly cloudy skies, 66. 60 the bay. and 72 san leandro and hayward and out over the hills we will see numbers warm in

that's really been designated just to the sierra nevada.l days will continue as we head towards the work week and august. so here's a look this morning at the cloud cover. beginning to peel back after, oh, 11:00 or so. py 2:00 notice the peninsula still looking at some cloud cover. so from 2:00, 3:00, that's when you will get the slice of a blue sky perhaps in the city and temperatures will just stay in the 60s again. more widespread 70s around the bay with some low to mid-80 as inland. yesterday it was a cool afternoon but today, due to the extent of the low clouds and fog, you are not going to see any 90s out there. even the upper 8 0's scaled back. here's the ridge of moisture. it's to the east, just making its way into southern california. it looks like the deserts around san diego will see some moisture. we may see a few high clouds in the south bay, monterey, but that's about it. we don't have to worry about the threat of showers that's been in the north and southern sierra with yosemite coming in with not only cooler condition was th

sierra nevada seeing the thunderstorms developing and once again tomorrow afternoon and sunday afternoon we see the sierra storms firing off this weekend so keep this in mind from tahoe to yosemite to las vegas we see this happen again. but some of the moisture is actually going to work its way west ward by sunday morning. there is a slight possibility that we will see some showers and thunderstorms around southern monterey county. very isolated in nature but it is clear here that we will get some moisture and hear in the bay area it's going to be in the form of tl clouds. look for the fog and low cloud. wide spread. numbers mainly in the 50's. tomorrow afternoon you are lacking at high at 80 degrees in san jose and cupertino. 78 for sunnyvale. 85 in los gato gatos. on the peninsula temperatures in the upper 70's for redwood city. menlo park. mount view and nice day along the coast if you like the fog it is 64 in half man bay with a few peeks of sun. downtown san francisco slightly cooler than normal. 66 degrees and in the north bay mid 70's for santa rosa, san rafael, head out to the ea

. >>> we are looking for changessensly today if you are headed to the sierra nevada., thunderstorms. we are looking at partly cloudy skies in livermore and gusty winds by the delta. 61 in antioch, 62 in oakland. looking at 59 half moon bay, 58 san francisco. sun coming up at about 6:11 this morning. coastal fog moving inland and we will look for that fog to clear throughout the afternoon. so some sunshine and mild temperatures around the bay. but it's going to be inland where we see the warmer weather. and then high clouds will be heading in throughout the weekend, especially in the south bay and along the monterey coast. so here's a look at the temperature profile. you notice the fog right out into the east bay. by 10:00, 11:00, it does clear. in fact we should see some sunshine at our beaches. but once again, just in our 60s there. some 70s around the bay and maybe 8s 0s in the inland valley. the west wind still with us. the sea breeze allowing for temperatures to stay pretty much a little bit below normal. so here's a look at some subtropical moisture that's rotati

a few thunderstorms erupting in the afternoon up in the sierra nevada.se are sliding further and further east as high pressure kind of gets out of the way a bit. so we will continue to cool things down at least for today. tomorrow kind of a push but after that looks like the trough is going to develop along the california coastline and that will help to usher in more low clouds and fog and some cooler temperatures. plan on a high today of 90 degrees in morgan hill. sunny skies there. 79 in mountain view. about 75 in san mateo and 58 degrees fog in toward daly city. east bay numbers up into the 80s and 90s. looks like some nice weather plenty of sunshine over there. and yeah, we have 70s and 80s in parts of the north bay, 50s and 60s at the coastline. and overlooking the next couple of days, we will watch some cooling temperatures toward the weekend. more low clouds and fog, temperatures dropping off continuing right into the middle of next week and yes, elizabeth, you can have some of that chocolate if you want. >> why did you bring that in? >> she is lo
