other notable numbers again in the double digits here, less than 15/100ths in san raphael. rain since then. but barely anything to a trace in san jose. it is a wet evening until we see the area of low pressure slide to the south and move out of the bay area. and with the cloud cover numbers into the 40s and into the 50s, this is the recent system. now, behind it here, we have a series of small impulses that will continue to rotate around the center, the core of the area of low pressure. so that's why we pretty much have to keep the weather pattern unsettled from tomorrow all the way through the weekend. this is how we are playing out your wednesday as you prepare for the morning commute, you will notice hit and miss scattered showers. but notice in the sky as well a few sunny breaks. so let's go with partly to mostly sunny skies. a random scattered shower for your wednesday. temperatures pretty much topping off in the upper 50s to the low 60s. not too far off the mark for this time of year. 59 in fremont. and low 60s at the delta. so we have unsettled conditions tomorrow. c
