but it's just about 40 miles offshore. it continues to move south. and so for tomorrow, we'll continue sort of the same pattern. a mix of sunshine and clouds and we will see that slight possibility of some rain. but because this is moving a little bit south and east. it will be the southern half of the bay area that will get that possibility. i want to show you what happens here. picking it up in the overnight hours. we have mostly cloudy skies over the bay area. it takes us until tomorrow afternoon until we really begin to see it pop up around san jose, down into morgan hill. maybe gilroy over the santa cruz mountains you can see it here. into the afternoon it will continue as again the system continues to slide to the south and to the east. for most of us another round of pleasant weather. but for some of us perhaps a few scattered showers in the forecast for your wednesday. we'll be tracking that for you later tonight and tomorrow morning. giving you a look at what you can expect as we start the day it will be another cool one. with areas of patch
