we were only within 1 degree of matching the record or beating the record at the san francisco airport. 93 degrees, the old record was 94. and san jose 98. the previous record was 99 degrees. what's happening. we got the high pressure system that's dominating and that's going to continue to dominate and keeping this heat and also those dry conditions. this is what we are monitoring. that dangerous and excessive heat warning will be in place through monday in land valleys. if you thought today is hot it is going to get hotter tomorrow. i know typically around here, we get micro climate, we are not going to be cooler around the coast. the heat advisory is in place through there. we are monitoring potential for some winds. how hot tomorrow? 103 and 105 by 4:00. 115 in livermore and danford. san francisco i decided to bump up the number to 92. i am thinking it will be hotter. winds kicking up into monday. that's going to bring is a fire weather watch for the east bay hills and north bay mountain starting on monday because of the national weather service. the three things we don't want to s

temperatures at the san francisco airport, we have dropped quite a bit. sterday san francisco had a record of 100 degrees. today it was in the low 90s. still hot, but not 100. so these onshore winds will continue through the night and maybe bring little bit of fog to the coast, which begins to help. look at that wind up at sfo. so it's really howling up there, even on the gusts. but the plan will be for the fog to get real close to the coast, and then just kind of move away when those offshore winds develop late tonight and early tomorrow morning. they're going to come out of the dess other or out of the great basin area and the winds will sweep this way, and it blows in the fog away, but also creates winds at the higher elevations. these are the current temperatures. look at palo alto. 18 degrees cooler than last night. so the trend is going the right way, that's good, but still really hot. santa rosa is a degree warmer. the forecast for tomorrow, there's that fog i talked about. wouldn't that be nice? it tries to pull that the coast, but then you see the

now the san francisco airport yesterday's high was 93. one degree away from 94 in 2004. san jose a high of 98. that is nothing compared to what you're going to see today. i know it sounds crazy. air quality, spare the air alert was extended until tomorrow. right now we're seeing unhealthy air quality from the east bay down to the south bay. the north bay we're still seeing moderate conditions there. that can change as these wildfires around, especially the new one in fresno county, continues to develop which could mean more smoke. keep your windows closed. that will be your best bet. what is bringing all this heat? this high pressure, dry air mass is lowering our humidities.efct cruz coastline, by the way, inland valleys 100 to 110. just how hot will we be? let's get right to the temperatures. we'll be in the 80s in some areas and then by 11:00 a.m., i like to tell people to do any outdoor activity and take your dog on a walk early. by 11:00 a.m. concord, danville, livermore will be at 95-97 degrees. even down through the south bay, 92 in san jose. and check out what some
