hollister temperatures a little bit warmer. san martin, santa cruz, both 49.rtino is in there 21. truckee 27 and reno 20. south lake tahoe to 27 in minden. but everything says it's pretty quiet here. now. the rain line is going north. it's going to be up towards northern sonoma county, mendocino county, lake county north. there will be some heavy rain on the north coast, also up in the pacific northwest. we will see considerable cloudiness coming in over the next few days, which will kind of paint us as we go into the weekend. but the storm track is up here. but even with the cloud cover, we're looking for upper 60 to 70. so i think the rest of the month we're probably done with rain. i'm going to get technical on you, don't worry about it, but there are signs in early march that we could we'll get back into rain. the north pacific, north america goes negative. the eastern pacific oscillation goes negative, and the mojo goes in phases one through eight. those are all bullish for rain. there will not be a quiz because it'd be too much for you to understand. but

even hollister's at 40 scotts valley there at 39, in the santa cruz mountains, mid 40s though for most. 47 santa clara, san jose, san martin, morgan hill. so most locations are in the 40s here. 21 truckee. 34 south lake tahoe. las vegas at 4648 in arcata and 45 down in monte so low clouds for the morning or fog. combination of the two and some higher clouds in the afternoon, giving us a mostly cloudy morning here. but there will be some filtered sun, as we like to say, but these higher clouds will continue to filter in here. tuesday looks pretty good. there will be some clouds, but a little bit warmer than wednesday. one more system here to clip us won't be much i think a quarter inch, probably santa rosa north could cover it. probably little to nothing south, but this one looks a little bit more robust than the one we had early sunday. after that. i mean, there's not much i mean, you see clear lake, 5100, ukiah quarter, russian river probably get a quarter, 1 to 2in of snow. and then that may be it until early march. there are a lot of signs, though. early march could return to being

hollister 3436 santa clara. take your pick. cupertino 37 2724.oe, ukiah at 3657 5455 santa barbara, la. and san diego a little bit of activity. see still to the north associated with that cold pool up there. so some of that, you know, the days you get a little more afternoon sun angle, the sun's a little higher, a little longer could get some buildups. that's your next system to the far left that will be here tomorrow for one more round of rain. it is not as strong, but right now the soils are, you know, they're saturated. so any rain, another half inch to an inch or two. certainly bears watching here. we'll get a break on the weekend. but some of the forecast models are really producing some big time rain again middle and end of next week. so it's something to watch here going forward. i can see clearly now morning sun a few afternoon clouds, highs though only in the 50s you guys. >> all right steve thank you. our time is now 553 today, a new executive order is expected from president trump about transgender athletes. we'll look at what that ord

there were a lot around 31. 32 hollister 29.ts valley, felton and boulder creek at 30. 33 santa clara. i do believe they dropped to 32. and i know santa cruz was 36. freeze warning. about what? another 40 minutes or so. frost advisory i think the freeze warning has been canceled. just a frost, at least for our local area. so some sun and then rain is on the way. big changes will take place starting today. some rain returns tonight. light that will mainly favor about san francisco down to santa cruz. the main system is no doubt about it going to be on thursday, and this looks like a heck of a system. rain and wind. just the question is where will the heaviest rain set up? this is all just in advance of the system before it really gets its act together. 30s and 40s on the temps here, with all this cold air at the surface and the clouds coming in, i think a lot of cold air gets trapped. so it will be a cool day. truckee 18, south lake tahoe at 1930, in arcata they were 27, now 30. so that's cold morning. the low will deepen and the

hollister. so we'll stop the rain. well, mother nature will, but some rain, but now a break or two. windy, off and on rain. possible thunderstorms after tomorrow morning. then we'll get a break. a lot of clouds, but drier as we go into the weekend. you guys. >> steve thank you. we'll continue our team coverage now of the stormy weather by going to pacifica. >> ktvu james torres is there to tell us what it's like right now. good morning to you james. >> and good morning to you to you both. you know, we covered some of these storms early last week. and that's when the rain was really coming down hard on us. we had a lot of that strong wind, too. we're not having as much rain this morning here in pacifica. that wind, though, very much still strong here. and whenever we have storms like what we're talking about today, we love coming to the city, pacifica. we love coming to the pier and seeing what mother nature offers us in the form of these waves are crashing into the seawall here now. it was just about a year ago where the pier had to close for about three weeks, because these waves d
