this just pushed out of sebastopol, occidental and guerneville moving rapidly towards glen ellen and this is about up to .10" of rain at tops in the northern portion of our bay area. so it's cloudy right now. a couple of sprinkles being noted around the bay. livermore right now at 62 degrees with the cloud cover. otherwise in the upper 50s in santa rosa. it is now in the 60s in oakland. and if you want to carry the umbrella to be safe, it's advisable. this is mainly a morning event. then clouds will linger all afternoon. we have a beach hazard statement in effect for very dangerous rip currents and some sneaker waves and we still have the king tide taking place 12:26 at 6.7. this is our futurecast. that's the front. now, watch what happens as it descends south. falls apart at the seams. so boy, not much rain at all across the bay area today. just enough to be mainly a nuisance with making those sidewalks slick and the roads, as well. thursday nothing but sunshine. we do have some light rain today in sacramento. it is not snow even though this is a cold front. it is currently 47 degre

it looks like we have kathy munch in sebastopol. rodgers hopes it's cooler today than yesterday when it was 102 in petaluma. thanks for being part of our weather watcher program. everybody is reporting partly cloudy skies. towards the bay bridge, we have been noticing some increasing clouds. it was relatively clear. the winds have been slight and variable and the temperatures are still up there. 68 in livermore after one yesterday. it's a mild start to the day. partly to mostly cloudy. cooler and muggy. the mugginess on thursday, then another chance of rain showers on friday. area of low pressure off the southern california coast. it's beginning to progress and lift up in a northerly direction. you can tell we are on the fringe end of the system but there's some precipitation later inside the bands of cloudiness. we have a slight chance of a couple of sprinkles today maybe even an outside chance of a thunderstorm as this continues to divert to the north and to the east. but for the most part it's heading into the southland. we have

sebastopol 49. 50s for everywhere else. higher elevations are pretty warm with 60s to near 70s. any system over the north. i think it will weaken considerably. this system will focus on our attention o that. you know it started in thed from -- the clouds will work their way on in into tuesday or wednesday. it looks like it will weaken. but it will cool us down by the weekend. next couple of days warm to hot. patchy fog on the coast. 70s and 80s around the water and 80s and 90s. 95 in clearlake. 94 for antioch and brentwood. a lot of 90s. livermore 93. 84 downtown oakland. 90s for morgan hill and gilroy. 87 for santa clara. 80s to 90s close for some on the peninsula. maybe a few showers south tuesday and wednesday. it does look cooler on the weekend. >>> just strange to hear you talk about low 90s. it's october; right? >> it is. we can get hot in october but this has been going on for. >>> time is 7:23. did you know today is columbus day and many people are not celebrating. we'll tell you about a growing trend around the country that some say is making this holiday more obsolete.

sonoma 53. 54 sebastopol. 55 los gatos and santa cruz. low 60nd san jose and saratoga. 50s for morgan hill and gilroy. this low right there is going to put on the air brakes so to speak and head back to mexico and move back up the coast in the next 5-6 days. something that is very rare to see but it would probably get more rain again. the same low that gave rain to l.a. and san diego might give them more rain again in a couple days. 70s and 80s on the temps today. in fact it doesn't take long to warm up. high pressure nosing in and that allows temperatures to start inching up. when you start off at 60-62 it doesn't take long to warm up. that is what we will have not only today but also into friday. then we will see a little cooler but still pretty mild. no rain for us. maybe clouds next week but that is it. >> it's sad when we are getting excited about clouds. >> there is rain north. there is rain south. just not here. a lot more in l.a. than here. >> yes, there is. >>> time is 7:52. boy new this morning a major announcement from oakland'
