the pacific northwest is going to get hit heavy, but here in the bay we're going to see passing cloudseft with warm weather. daytime highs throughout the bay area looks like the tracker is not working, but we're expecting 60s in the forecast throughout our coastline and our inland areas as well. it will be a nice mild forecast into this afternoon. down into the santa clara valley, 70, near san jose. we'll continue to see the 70s highlight most of the bay area as we head into early next week. let's dive into it. the area of high pressure, we can say thank you because it's keeping the atmospheric river well away from us. closer to oregon to washington where they could see anywhere up to around eight inches of rain. to add to that they could see around two feet of snow in the cascades, wind gusts 60 to 80 miles per hour. that's not our problem. just partly cloudy skies as the leftover showers are just to the north of us, closer to santa rosa as we head into sunday and monday of next week. santa rosa could see a splash but the rest of us stay dry and cloudy. speaking of dry, we'll continue

that's going take focus really on the pacific northwest. we're going kind of cuts, the trailing edge of this system moves on through as we look toward tomorrow morning. still a couple of scattered pop up. showers begin develop here in northern california. even parts of parts of northern sonoma county as well. but overall, that's going to be a light system that moves on by not let it. lot of heavy rain expected with that forecast. models begin to pick up some of that precipitation as we head through the night tonight, early tomorrow morning. so maybe a little wet early on for the commute, especially north of the golden gate bridge. you see a couple wondering showers further south. so be prepared for that kind of slides on through as we head through about the middle of the day and then we watch these kind of back off as we head toward the afternoon. so not a big event. nothing that's going to ruin your day. just be prepared for that. keep that umbrella handy with you. rainfall amounts going to be pretty light with this system compared to what

an atmospheric river is aimed at the pacific northwest. northern california gets a piece of the energy we get really the tail end of this front. so it's not going to amount to a whole lot. but right now, as we look at live doppler seven, there's a lot of cloud cover and there's some moisture off the coastline. looking at those temperatures at this hour, they're pretty much in the 40s and 50s. so the cloud cover is insulating us a bit. a live view from our east bay hills camera right now. visibility is all right tomorrow. scattered showers thursday. gusty in the hills and near the coastline. and then your weekend outlook will be springlike warmth coming your way. wanted to preview it for you in case you're trying to make outdoor plans. saturday. mainly sunny. feeling like spring, mid 60s to low 70 and by sunday even warmer than that. mid 60s to mid 70s. so temperatures are going to be a good 1012 degrees above average before we get to that tomorrow morning. we've got a few showers coming in 7:00 in the north bay as we head towards 10 a.m, st

most of this is heading up into the pacific northwest. the tail end of that will drag across us light rain.t about marin county north but cool to cold lows, more sun and warmer. a lot of high clouds drifting in, but temps bumping up a little bit here now. low to mid 60s. all right sally's here a bridge a freeway. where are we going. >> yeah let's pardon me. let's go to the richmond-san rafael bridge. steve i wanted to take a look at that because we're getting a crowd here on the richmond bridge. you can see traffic is moving along a little bit slowly. if you are driving through, you will see the traffic is going to be busy there. going to the bay bridge, you will see the traffic is backed up to the macarthur maze and the metering lights are on. we've also been looking at that east bay commute, and we do have some slow traffic on interstate 880 heading into union city. that's not unusual. and now 680 is also getting slow through pleasanton. 7:00 let's get back to the headlines. >> straight to that developing story we've been following in th

we can already see the blue there on the map across the pacific northwest. that snow that's been happening in some of the upper elevations across the pacific northwest. by the time it arrives in the bay area, 5:00 tomorrow morning, we start out with some light rain that gets heavier and continues throughout the day, and then it starts to wrap up on friday, but that's another day with some off and on showers and another significant rainfall, as we're looking at anywhere from about three quarters of an inch of rainfall to over an inch, maybe an inch and a half for san francisco. and then we get a chance to let all of that water soak in this weekend. take a look at the sunshine in the forecast and cool morning temperatures with highs reaching into the mid to upper 50s into the middle of next week for san francisco. expect sunshine today and showers tomorrow into early friday. laura. marcus. thanks, kari. we are celebrating black history month on nbc bay area and next here on today in the bay, we're going to introduce you to one local artist breaking barriers in

looking at the wider perspective, the majority of this energy is going to head into the pacific northwest d northern california, where we're already seeing some scattered showers and snow showers. looking at that storm system, you can see it's still off the coast. so tomorrow it gets here. and here's what you need to know. carry an umbrella. if i were you, 7:00 in the morning, some showers show up in the north bay. really? light stuff, 830. there's a possibility of some of this. makes it to san francisco and into the east bay by 11 a.m. not expecting a whole lot out of this. i'll be back with a full look at the forecast. coming right up. dan. >> okay, sandy, thanks a lot. ursula jones dixon is officially the new alameda county district attorney. tonight. she was sworn in just about two hours ago during the board of supervisors meeting. jones dixon was serving as an alameda county superior court judge. she replaces pamela price, who was recalled this past november. >> the one thing i'm most concerned about here at the da's office is the cohesiveness. and this is not tom orloff's office. it

we do have showers returning towards the pacific northwest. ea, we are going to be dry today and calm today and a really nice way to be getting outside, enjoying some sunshine, some dry skies, calm winds tomorrow. this low pressure that's beginning to impact the pacific northwest. we'll bring a lot more rain to them for us here in the bay. we're right at the southern periphery of any sort of precipitation, potential because of this. our rainfall tomorrow is going to be super limited. whereas the further north you head up the coastline, the more shower activity you'll see a little bit of snowfall in the sierra, but not a remarkable system in the least bit. in fact, not really much of a comparison at all compared to last week, areas like eureka, certainly seeing a lot of rain, but here in the bay and nothing more than a couple of drops are possible. the sierra donner summit maybe around 3 inches of new snow fall. but unlike last week, we're measuring it in feet. this is definitely on the lighter side of things. now, as far as temperatures go toda

in the pacific northwest. there is still a working commercial nuclear reactor that feeds the largest electricity supplier in that part of the country, which is the bonneville power administration. trump, in addition to firing the cleanup crews at hanford, also just fired hundreds of people more than 600 employees who keep the lights on at bonneville to. mass. layoffs at bonneville power administration raise concerns about reliability of power grid. they're firing electricians. they're engineers, line workers, cyber security experts. again, that's the power grid, the biggest electricity supplier in the pacific northwest, including some of their electricity being supplied by a big commercial nuclear plant. is that what you voted for? cutting the people who maintain the power grid, cutting the security engineers who manage the cleanup at one of the worst sites of nuclear contamination in the world, which is in our country. trump has also now started firings at the pacific northwest national laboratory, which does,

most of this is heading up into the pacific northwest. nty north but cool to cold lows, more sun and warmer. a lot of high clouds drifting in, but temps bumping up a little bit here now. low to mid 60s. all right sally's here a bridge a freeway. where are we going. >> yeah let's pardon me. let's go to the richmond-san rafael bridge. steve i wanted to take a look at that because we're getting a crowd here on the richmond bridge. you can see traffic is moving along a little bit slowly. if

an atmospheric river is aimed at the pacific northwest. energy we get really the tail end of this front. so it's not going to amount to a whole lot. but right now, as we look at live doppler seven, there's a lot of cloud cover and there's some moisture off the coastline. looking at those temperatures at this hour, they're pretty much in the 40s and 50s. so the cloud cover is insulating us a bit. a live view from our east bay hills camera right now. visibility is all right tomorrow. scattered showers thursday. gusty in the hills and near the coastline. and then your weekend outlook will be springlike warmth coming your way. wanted to preview it for you in case you're trying to make outdoor plans. saturday. mainly sunny. feeling like spring, mid 60s to low 70 and by sunday even warmer than that. mid 60s to mid 70s. so temperatures are going to be a good 1012 degrees above average before we get to that tomorrow morning. we've got a few showers coming in 7:00 in the north bay as we head towards 10 a.m, starting to cross san francisco, parts of

it's going to bring the pacific northwest and northern california most of the energy, but we get a few showers out of it and it will be spotty in nature. but then after that, there's nothing in the accuweather seven day forecast as far as rain. it is going to be dry and milder. we do have 70 showing up as we hit the weekend, which is above average for this time of year. so definitely a change in our pattern as dionne mentioned. dan dan. >> all right. thanks sandy, very much. >> well, the nba all-star weekend wrapped up in san francisco. arguably, thoughe biggest star of the festivities wasn't a pro basketball player, but an 18 year old college student from oakley. today i spoke with jaron barajas about his once in a lifetime shot that earned him $100,000. on the baseball field of los medanos college in pittsburg. it's practice, as usual for the mustangs, except for 18 year old jaron barajas, who's still running on adrenaline. >> it was a long night. it was hard to get up, didn't get much sleep. >> the second baseman is now known across the nation not for his skills on the diamond, but

the most that energy, he's going to run a pacific northwest. the trailing edge of see it right here on a long-range forecast. tomorrow looks great. few high clouds drifting up above otherwise nice day. and then your chance of showers rotates in as we head in toward the middle of the week. that chance really north of the golden gate bridge. then as we get next week. and i think we say, hey, we've got a nice weekend ahead and some dry weather to go along with that. and how about some temperatures may be in the 70's may be a little taste of spring coming our way numbers for tomorrow. your be in the 50's in the mid 60's across much of the bay area the next couple of days look too bad, although that slight chance of showers on wednesday, we get into thursday and friday. those temperatures start to warm up. and yet there's some 70's out there on saturday and sunday. how about i mean, some nice in the 70's. i little fan during the weekend. yeah. in the 2nd half of this month looks much quieter weather wise than the 1st half. that was pretty rough. the

the pacific. while they will be moving generally from west to east, the storm track is being nudged a little bit further to the north. so those storms will aim their moisture, their energy. at the pacific northwest. we are going to be the dividing line for even the southern fringe of clouds. the forecast looks pretty dry until maybe we get into the first weekend of march. more on that in a second. but first let's take a look at where things stand right now as we look outside from the mark hopkins hotel. clear skies overhead. it is still nice out there this evening. everybody has retreated into the 50s but that's not bad for a february evening. these temperatures are closer to our normal daytime highs as opposed to where we are supposed to be more than an hour after the sun has gone down. with the clear skies overhead, we will continue to drop off as we head through the night but not too far. fog will not be a huge factor. some of it trying to push toward the coast. it will be more of a factor for santa cruz county. we will see some fog sneaking in from the central valley as well. this will not be a major issue from the morning commute. the sun's energy will go from warming us up from a cool but

that rain well to the north of the bay area up the pacific northwest. they're getting hit with the focus of these storms. now we're kind of on the southern edge and that's not a bad place to be these storms kind of riding over the top of california for the most part, the exception far northwestern part of california. towards eureka crescent city. there get clipped with the rain up in the chest area as well. we're gonna see some passing clouds throughout the weekend. then maybe a few more clouds, maybe some drizzle as we head in toward monday, that we're looking good. high pressure, build right back in. and there you go. we've got a lot of sunshine coming your way. temperatures in the temperatures go tomorrow. you're looking at some 60's around much of the area along the coastline. little bit cooler 50's 60's out for the beaches inside the bay should be nice. 64 degrees in burlingame work your way down the peninsula. these temperatures really begin to warm up. i feel the 70's in the santa clara valley tomorrow afternoon. a 72 loss cattle. 71 in livermore

head up the pacific northwest. so we're gonna catch the trailing edge of that system of the slides on by. but tomorrow looks like another really nice day to get out there. enjoy long range forecast. here comes the system tomorrow. not a bad day. most that energy had it all the way up in oregon and washington. then as we head into wednesday, we do get clipped by the system drops in as we head toward wednesday afternoon. so a chance of showers them. but it doesn't look like much. just not going to be a big storm system moving on through behind dan kind of mentioned, here we go. northwest. get hit by more rain. but we're going to see some numbers probably in the 70's around the bay area. so the warmer summers, we've seen quite a while. so looks like some nice weather coming our way that we get toward the middle of next week. and again, there's another slight chance of some showers, long range forecast models as we take you toward the end of the month are showing a lot of brown out there and that's showing below normal

all that moisture will be aimed at the pacific northwest, and that's the trend that will repeat themselves over and over again, over the course of likely the next couple of weeks. the minimal rain chances in the forecast through the end of february and even into early march. but minimal doesn't necessarily mean zero. we're going to see at least a few light showers making their way into the bay area tomorrow. for the moment, all we have is the cloud cover out there, which will have an impact on the temperatures throughout the rest of tonight. looking towards the bay bridge and looking good. otherwise mid to upper 50s across the board. they will get thicker and thicker throughout the rest of tonight. even if you don't see any of those showers tomorrow, you will feel the influence tomorrow. and underneath the blanket of clouds. for wake up temperatures on wednesday, and once the showers come to an end, we will make it up to what's normal for this time of the year. those 60s in the santa clara valley and all these numbers within 1 to 2 degrees of what's normal for the 19th of february. 59 degr

mostly it will be on wednesday in the pacific northwest and then dropping into the northwest portion of the night of the state of california. by the time it gets to the bay area. it's wednesday and it's not very much. we're counting it. maybe a 10th of an inch in santa rosa, many arab other areas more like a few hundredths of an just >> thank you so much that. pretty fun filled weekend at chase center, creating a lot of memories for fans and all-star weekend in the bay area has now wrapped up the best players in rising stars showed up and they showed off sporting events and skills contests all led to the biggest night on the court. the all-star game kron. 4 sports director scott reese reports from chase center. >> the nba all-star game here in san francisco. the culmination of a weekend's worth of fun and entertainment. you had the best basketball players on the planet all gathered under one roof. the game did not disappoint with steph curry being the kobe bryant, most valuable player. and we got our storybook ending. >> as celebration of a lot of great things happen in basketball to

the latest storm system directing most of its energy, most of its moisture towards the pacific northwestng us to the north, which will remain the case over and over again for likely the next couple of weeks. it really has been the rainy season so far of all or nothing. we had a lot of rain in november and early december. actually much of the month of december, hardly any for january and a lot to begin for february. now it's back to the dry side of the coin that is going to continue probably into the month of march. let's take a look at the rain chances as we would head through the next seven days, which will be zero. there will be some fog here and there. that's why the green line on our chat here isn't compete hadly down on the bottom of the scale. but a little bit of moisture condensing out of the fog, which is the extent of what we would see through the middle of next week. and we will be looking into a couple of days beyond next wednesday, so this will be a long stretch of dry weather. at least we added up the rain so far this month. pretty sunset skies as we would look to the east,

it continues to fuel into the pacific northwest, and also that northwestern corner of the state of california all weekend. there's monday, tuesday all the way through wednesday. so this is going to impact your weekend, not tomorrow. tomorrow some clouds and sun blend temperatures pretty similar to today. i'll talk about when the sidewalks will get damp and where. and gang that's still coming up. >> all right. >> thank you. community members and elected officials met to talk today about how to improve a south bay highway that many say is too dangerous. state assembly speaker robert rivas hosted the roundtable discussion on highway 25 in hollister today. last october, a911 dispatcher was killed in a head on collision on the highway that runs from gilroy south into san benito county. officials say they are working with caltrans to add safety k-rails to divide the oncoming traffic in the section within santa clara county, as they do in san benito. >> i keep saying to them, you know, no matter what the study says, we need to lean toward yes, on putting up those barriers, because every logical pers

the center of this storm is the swirl of clouds moving towards the pacific northwest. one of the channels of moisture, one of the atmospheric river kind of you might think of it as different fingers of moisture heading towards the west coast was aimed at the bay area most of the day, but now some of that is aimed at southern california. this is dominating weather up and down the entire west coast of the u.s. for the next 24 hours or so. let's look at the rainfall amounts so far. these are the latest measured numbers from parts of the bay area. almost 5 1/2 inches around ben lomond, kentfield picking up 3 1/2 inches of moisture last night. there are parts of the tri-valley that picked up more rain than usual, redwood city almost 3 inches of rain, just over 2 inches for santa rosa, 1.7 inches for downtown san francisco and approaching 1 1/2 inches of total rainfall in san jose. there's still rain on the map now. let's look at first alert doppler. the first view shows pockets of heavier rain, one of which is making its way right into downtown san francisco. notice all the

this area of low pressure is going to provide days of rain showers for the pacific northwest, and alsobut look how far that plume extends. and you have a secondary system right there. now let's see really just how close it's going to get to the bay area. here's our futurecast again. clear skies tonight. but by the time you wake up tomorrow morning, sunup is 652. we're going to notice some partly cloudy conditions. then we clear out and really good looking day. but because of these clouds, the influx of them, i'm going to bring down the temperature just a degree or two. notice the clouds fill in rapidly on saturday morning. nice looking day. saturday night mostly cloudy, then look up stream. renegade showers invade lake county. i went ahead and merged another computer model in with this so we can see how close the rain does get to santa rosa. it looks like you may see a little drizzle overnight from saturday night to sunday morning, but that's it. the temperatures will remain above average tonight. overnight 30 and 4043 degrees in redwood shores, redwood city. how about crockett and cla

tracker two here, showing you that the pacific northwest does remain active sunday. we may see this rain line kind of dip just a little bit. right now it looks like down to about mendocino county. but in the meanwhile it is going to stay to the north and we are going to stay high and dry with temperatures expected to be above average by at least a few degrees. here's a look at a little bit closer here where you can see very quiet out there. winds are generally light, a variable wind reported in many areas, and our temperatures at this time very similar to yesterday, within a couple of degrees for most of us, some a little bit warmer, some a little bit cooler. half moon bay you are up by several degrees, so 64 degrees outside your door in the north bay we have 66 in novato, enjoying a low 60s in areas like livermore and the south bay. checking in right about 63. temperatures expected again to warm as we get into the coming days, and some of our inland communities likely to get into the low 70. calm conditions reported for santa rosa. novato in napa, fairfield, you have

we do see a low-pressure area making its way into the pacific northwest. ain and snow up in the cascades. we are right at the southern point of any sort of precip potential out of this and what that means for us tomorrow is just nothing more than a few light. sprinkles. once you head north of mendocino county, that's where you're running into the heavier rain. snowfall in the sierra is also going to be really limited sticking just 2 tomorrow and then clearing and drying out very consistently after that point. today's daytime highs are going to be mild. tomorrow is a little bit cooler paired with these light showers across the bay area. meeting tomorrow is may be the one that's a plan a whole lot outside, although it's certainly not a bad one. donner summit up in the sierra, only 3 inches of snowfall compared to the feet that you had last week. so not a lot. that's going to interrupt your travel plans into this year, either. as i mentioned, today's so mild comfortably in the low 60's for downtown san francisco. some 50's at the coastline while really the res

this is going to bang up against the pacific northwest and bring copious amounts of precipitation. ughout that northwestern corner of the state of california, we will start to see the influx of a few clouds just tearing off from that frontal system there. you can see in the bay area right now we are pretty much cloud free, but the clouds will be on the approach later on tonight. so tomorrow morning, when the sun does make an appearance, that's when we'll begin to see the clouds move in from the north. we'll call it partly cloudy for openers tomorrow. and then during the afternoon we're going to play around with some clouds. some clouds blend for your afternoon, becoming mostly cloudy by saturday morning, but nonetheless, we will see more sunshine as well. and that will lead us to the temperatures still in the 70s. but look upstream. there we have the rain. we're going to track that rain for mendocino county. that's coming up next time around. plus more news with heather and christina right with fatigue and light-headedness, i knew something was wrong. then i saw my doctor and found

anyway, on saturday, we're looking at a lot of sunshine around much of the country, raining in the pacific northwestg our way for the weekend. we'll see temperatures inhe upper 60s for today and mostly sunny and slightly warmer tomorrow in the low 70s for a lot of the inland valleys. and then we will see some clouds increasing on sunday. a slight chance of rain in the north bay between sunday night and monday morning. other than that, it's dry in the forecast and we continue with some above normal high temperatures. our mornings will weather. >> coming up, a one-on-one conversation with the legendary jane fonda, reflecting on her one-of-a-kind career and now being honored by her peers in hollywood. but, first, this is "today" on nbc. >>> welcome back. jane fonda has been a fixture and a star in hollywood for nearly seven decades. from tv to films to her activism. she has remained a constant force and a powerful advocate. >> at this weekend's sag awards, fonda will get the lifetime achievement award. but, first, she sat down with jacob soboroff. >> there are not many people that ascended to icon stat

now this is going to be causing a lot of flooding and throughout the pacific northwest. but look at eureka. over two inches of rain, nearly four inches of rain in portland, oregon. that's by tuesday. so let's see how close it gets to the bay area. here is sun up tomorrow morning. a little hint of some fog, and then again the clouds. they stream in and they stream out. but there you have it. some of the renegade showers from that area of low pressure to the north of us. want to play tag with the santa rosa area by 10:00 tomorrow night, but out of here it continues to track into easterly direction and bypass the bay area, but we will be the recipient of some clouds and sun blend tonight. overnight temperatures with the clear skies into the 40s. now those temperatures are very mild. and so are these numbers 70 tomorrow in santa rosa, 71 in throughout the tri valley, 70 in fremont. how about low 70 around sunnyvale, cupertino and campbell and even warmer than that in morgan hill and in gilroy. so that's my outside number for saturday and sunday. it does cloud up on monday, bu

there's an atmospheric river that will aim plenty of moisture at the pacific northwest. and washington will be intercepting almost all that. we'll see some clouds passing over the skies in the bay area. there will nobody moisture falling out of the clouds other than maybe a rogue sprinkle sunday for the far north bay. we aren't looking at measurable rain chances over the next several days. let's look at things right now. a check of our current conditions, nice this evening from salesforce tower to the east, a little high cloud cover. that should make for a pretty sunset. temperatures are mostly in the 60s. it's 59 degrees in san francisco, close enough, 60 across the bay in oakland, mid- to upper 60s in san jose, santa rosa, and in concord after a few temperatures did crack 70 degrees today. we will see more of that saturday and sunday. some fog is trying to spread out through tonight. i don't think it will be a huge deal if you're up and about early saturday, about more like a return of a springtime weather pattern. it won't take long for the fog to dissipate and the su

you can see the center, the core just hanging off the pacific northwest coast side. s angeles area. that's the secondary system there that has already produced an inch and a quarter amount of precipitation. behind it here, yet another plume tapping into some tropical moisture. a few light showers in the sunday morning forecast for the north bay. until then, take a look at all the storm reports today. these were over 160 different issues reported around the bay area. now, in its wake, we still have precipitation as we zero on in primarily around the santa cruz mountains, where over 5.5in of rain has accumulated just today alone. meanwhile, we zero in a little bit closer to the san jose area. over an inch and a quarter has fallen there. and then we head on over to the eastern portion of our bay area, walnut creek along 680 as you head south towards san ramon. all this light precipitation continues to push out. tracy had a pretty moderate cell there that is out of the area, and the north bay appears to be clearing out ever so gently, except near the yountville area. now

you can see the long line of clouds and aittle bit of some light rain moving into the pacific northwest. but this is not a very strong system and it's moving quickly. so here's how it times out for us in the bay area. starts out tomorrow morning at about 7 to 8:00. first moving into the north bay with some solid rain there. and then as it moves through the line of showers just kind of falls apart. so there may be some hit or miss rain in the east bay, but not expecting all of us to see that chance of showers in the morning, and then clearing out for all of us in the afternoon. and then looking ahead for gilroy. the 7-day forecast shows that we'll see temperatures in the 60s through thursday, and then look at the spring like temperatures that are coming our way for the weekd into the mid 70s on sunday in gilroy. and we also will see the warm weather continue into next week. still no rain in the forecast beyond tomorrow, so that one little quick shower is all we'll see for at least the next seven days. and mike, you've been watching the commute. things starting to pick up there. yeah they

some showers towards the north coast of california, most of that moisture will be sent into the pacific northwest. it's a hill of air in the atmosphere pushing that storm track farther north. our next rain chance isn't likely until the first weekend in march. there's some disagreements in the various long range forecast models. we'll look at those in a moment. let's talk about what's happening now around the bay area because it's nice outside and it's nice to be the bearer of good news. here's a look outside from black mountain, seeing clear skies as the sun gets closer to going down. we're seeing a mix of 50s, 60s and one spot in the 70s, 70 degrees in santa rosa after you topped out at 73 this afternoon, a good 10 degrees above normal. otherwise temperatures retreating in san francisco and oakland to the mid-and upper 50s, 60s elsewhere. those numbers will continue to drop off through tonight. the fog is not going to be a major factor by early tomorrow morning. there's going to be some of it trying to develop and trying to make its way to the coast as we go through the rest of tonight into earl

high pressure diverting what will be a pretty significant atmospheric river boosted storm to the pacific northwestarm conditions here. rain chances over the weekend could drop as far south as maybe the north coast. mendocino county northward might see a few showers saturday, but the bay area looking dry and actually feeling a lot more like spring weather starting as early as friday. so a chance of some light rain tomorrow, clearing by tomorrow afternoon, and then after that, san francisco has a chance of upper 60s for highs and valley locations starting friday, but peaking just in time for the weekend could be looking at low to mid 70s. nice weekend on the way. a little bit of rain to deal with though, especially for the morning commute tomorrow. but then after that things dry out and warm up over the next seven days. we have to be so grateful. compared to the rest of the country, it is the exact opposite. yeah. all right. thank you rob. all right. coming up, trying to save for a rainy day the growing number of people that are setting aside money f an emergenorcy laying off workers. southwest says

and we will be for a while a lot of activity in the pacific northwest all the way into northern californiat few days for the next few days. but for us, we're just going to be on the south end. we're going to notice temperatures heating up. very, very impressive satellite image, though. and as you know, and as you've learned that you get this much activity, there's wind at the surface. so you've got swell coming out of here. so the waves the next week are going to fluctuate. like today it was 8 to 10. it'll be six day or four day tomorrow, 4 to 6 tomorrow, then back to 8 to 10, 10 to 12. it's going to fluctuate, but the swells are big. so you crab fishermen folks going to the beach just be you know, it's not going to be a cakewalk anytime soon. there's plenty of swell generated. there's tomorrow morning. this is the forecast model. so there's tomorrow morning and then there's tomorrow. right. would you call rain? yeah. you need an umbrella? no, i don't think so. and then this is noontime. so that's it. that's wednesday. it clears out. then we get into some fog stuff on thursday morning. val

the activity is all in the pacific northwest. next system comes in on wednesday. ow. really doesn't even designate a number one and our storm impact scale. but there will be some showers. and then as we get into thursday and friday, stronger high pressure, we're sunnier, we're milder, and temperatures are really going to rebound. we'll be as much as ten degrees warmer than we are right now as we get into about thursday. so highs today, scattered sprinkles here or there, maybe a light shower from the upper 50s to low 60s, and the accuweather seven day forecast, maybe a sprinkle or two. mainly clouds today. partly cloudy for the holiday. dry again on tuesday. a mix of clouds and sun. next chance of rain comes in on wednesday, maybe even tuesday night into wednesday. then we're sunny and much milder through the rest of the week and next weekend. stephanie. >> all right. lisa. thank you. well to sports now nba all-star saturday often overshadows the big game itself. and last night the bay area witnessed the skills challenge, the three point shootout and the famous slam

you can see the tightly coiled core is right off shore from the pacific northwest, and the frontal boundarys just braced up and down the state of california as we zoom in. see all these bubbles here? this is an indication of all the different storm reports we received across the bay area today. it's over 160. so as of right now, the storm the frontal boundary has bypassed as but behind it we have a lot of backwash, a lot of rain showers. still throughout the overnight hours. we can see at this particular time the showers are zeroing in on the santa cruz mountains, where we've seen over 5.25in of rain. even san jose has picked up over an inch of precipitation today. right now, a little bit of light activity right near los altos hills into the mountain view area. this is a nice cluster from bay point through antioch into bethel island, just bypassing discovery bay. but we still have more rain in the forecast. let's call on futurecast here. and you can see by nine 10:00 tonight we all feel back in again with light to moderate precipitation. heaviest rain will be to the north with our friends i

. >> to the pacific northwest with. 33 million americans already under some form of a winter alert. orm watches are in blue, winter storm warnings in pink through kansas city and the power and light district and those stretch across northwestern arkansas. so where is this storm going and where do we see it? well, today it's across the pacific northwest, entering the rockies and taking on some warmer weather with it to that, warmer air actually feeds into the center of the storm system, bringing the chance of severe weather. we're talking tornadoes, gusty winds, and even hail, too, from houston, texas to new orleans in the coming days. on the cold side of it, to the north, there's plenty of snow. and this also races offshore. we think for most folks across the carolinas and even the dmv, some of the guidance tries to take it northbound, but this will not be enough to satisfy the appetite of a lot of folks there across new england. we're really just talking about flurries at best across cape cod. the snowfall amounts between now and thursday. in terms of that forecast, you see that zon

most of the system going ahead up in the pacific northwest, kind of follow in the jet stream out there and moves on by. it will bring with it. plenty of rain drops in that direction. but for us, kind of catching the trailing edge. nbc's live in their as we head to the middle of the day tomorrow. then school downtown leave behind high pressure and that ridge is going to send all those storms north. and that means when we get into saturday, we could see some temperatures sticking up in the upper 60's. some 70's popping up around the bay area and then looks like a another slight chance of showers about the middle of next week. but none of these storms very large tomorrow. we are starting out some showers early on 50's and 60's by the afternoon with some partly cloudy skies over the next few days. highpressure going to build back in the temperatures are going to start to warm back up saturday and sunday could see some of those temperatures sneaking up into the 70's outside, in fact, holding on to those as we head toward the beginning of next week. >> san francisco just wrapped up playing h

murray how folks in the northwest feel about this, elon musk and his hatchet squad having your bank accounts, your home address, social security number. trust me, folks in the pacific northwest think that this is way out of bounds for government. the musk hatchet brigade has infiltrated a gold mine of data that every foreign spy and every corrupt actor would love to see. it is a prescription for nightmares. let's remember that musk reportedly couldn't get a security clearance because of his financial ties to the chinese government and his other foreign connections. that's the guy, folks, who's now got his hands on the personal data of hundreds of millions of americans and some unknown number of businesses and groups. last point. the trump administration caused chaos in medicaid and other services that are important to americans last week when they shut down the primary payment portals to states and social service agencies. these are incompetent people. they don't care about the damage they're doing, and now they may be in charge of the tightrope walk the treasury has to do to avoid defaulting on out of debt. we're one mistake away from economic catastrophe. senator

the pacific is still there. it's just aimed farther up to our north. it's a very well organized one making its way into the pacific northwest directing an atmospheric river towards washington and oregon, but that moisture will miss us to the north. there is an outside chance of a couple sprinkles in the north bay sunday. that's the only chance of any kind of moisture that we have over the course of the next seven days. it's not going to be measurable. dry and warm weather will prevail. it's still mild this evening. let's look outside from salesforce tower to the east over the bay bridge, a mix of 50s and 60s, 63 degrees in concord, 60 in livermore, san jose and santa rosa, down into the mid- to upper 50s in san francisco and oakland, not bad for a february evening. those numbers are closer to our average highs, not after the sun goes down. we'll see fog spreading out through tonight. it's not going to be a huge factor for very long during the day on saturday. there's going to be a layer cake effect. we'll have some fog at ground level and clouds in the mid and upper levels in the atmosphere. even once the fog dissipates, we'll see sunshine, but it's goin

the jet stream moving to the north and that is going to be the track of the coming storms in the pacific northwest. they're going to get hit, taking the brunt. really the systems they roll on through. you see here on the forecast of getting toward tomorrow, high pressure overhead. we've got another beautiful day around the bay area tomorrow. saturday looks great temperatures probably a little bit warmer. northern california getting clipped by that next system. kind of moving on through. but as we head toward monday, we're going to see another weak system, bringing a few clouds are probably knock down. the temperatures just a couple degrees but not bad. then we rebound right away until we look at a slight chance of showers by about thursday of next week and then more rain, possibly in the southern california. temperatures tomorrow. going to be nice about 69 degrees in san jose. 67 degrees and live more about 66 in london. 64 degrees downtown san francisco out over the next couple out. hey, not a bad forecast set yet for the weekend. watching those temperatures swing up into the 70's as we head towa

few clouds floating through the skies, but the next several storms will be pushed up towards the pacific northwest. we'll be on the very southern fringe of even the cloud cover associated with those storm systems, so no rain chances in the seven-day forecast, probably not till we get into the first weekend in march which is not that far away. let's look outside. we have a view from salesforce tower which looks pretty good. actually this is the view from the top of black mountain. let's look at current conditions. the map is not going to go. there it is. 50s and 60s now, 56 degrees in san francisco, 68 degrees in concord, 70 degrees still in santa rosa. you topped out in the low 70s today. your temperatures are well above normal for this time of year thanks to a light offshore breeze going downslope and that warms it up to a greater extent for certain communities in the north bay. through tonight we'll see temperatures dropping off pretty quickly as we go through the overnight hours. let's look first at any fog that will try to develop. it's going to be sparse. there's not a lot showing up on futur

you see here high pressure building in heavy rain for the pacific northwest, but just to the north of the bay area. so as that high builds in, that's going to set the stage for these warming temperatures upper 60s to near 70 on friday. and for your weekend plans, it looks like low 70s around san jose on saturday mid 70s. and reach as we wrap up the weekend. should be a gorgeous one to get outside some overcast skies saturday and sunday after we get past this one period of some rain tomorrow, mostly morning to midday. heavy drizzle, a few showers that moves out for thursday and then spring weather awaits friday into the beginning of next week. those temperatures, by the way, look like they're going to be staying pretty warm for a while. even as we get out of next weekend, we are going to barbecue at your house or something. barbecue pool party sounds. sounds good to me. thanks, robbie. well, up next, the verdict announced within the past hour in the shooting trial of rapper asap rocky. also, all that glitters is not gold. the new warning about scammers looking to fraud victims out of h
