indicating where we have only low to moderate risk around the bay area. those areas closer to the central valley where there's a lot of heat and low humidity, of course, are in a higher fire risk. but as we go into the evening hours and into tomorrow, we'll see more of the green and the blue on this map, indicating low fire risk right now for the bay area. here are some of the factors contributing to that lower risk. the 24 hour temperature change shows it's about 15 to 25 degrees cooler in most bay area locations right now than at this time yesterday. so the cooler weather of course, helps. now it is breezy out there. you don't like gusty winds when you've got fire danger. however, those onshore breezes are lifting a relative humidity into a safer zone. so we've got cooler air. we've got higher relative humidity. at least for now. we are in that low risk category. i'll have the complete accuweather seven day forecast a little bit later j.r. >> spencer, thank you so much. we look forward to that. stay on top of the forecast anytime with the abc seven bay area streaming tv app. you can get wildfire

flow. not much yet in the way of clouds, although the marine layer will develop a redevelop tonight. but right now we're looking at gusts up to 33mph at sfo, 2520 four mile per hour gusts over hayward and livermore. so breezy all around the area, but that onshore flow is a cooling one. as you see on the 24 hour temperature change, it's 15 to 25 degrees cooler across the region than at this time yesterday, which is good news because we had quite a bit of heat building around the bay area on friday and saturday. so right now it's 59 degrees here in san francisco, low to mid 60s at oakland and hayward, san jose 70 degrees 75 at redwood city, 57 at half moon bay. nice view from mount tam looking down ontot a few scattered low clouds pushing out over the bay right now. the marine layer still hasn't really fully developed. it's 70 degrees up north at santa rosa, 66 at petaluma, napa 64 low to mid 70s at fairfield and concord, 77 at livermore. and a nice view of a mix of blue sky and clouds at the golden gate. these are our forecast

headlines today and going into this evening it will be breezy and much cooler. as you probably discovered already early this week. mostly sunny, mild days lie ahead, and at the end of the week, a little bit of a warming trend will develop. right now, though, we're looking at that onshore flow. and as we take the forecast animation into the nighttime hours, you'll see a little bit of a development of marine layer along the coastline. doesn't look like it's going to push very far over the bay and inland overnight. so tomorrow morning we'll start the day with the marine layer dissipating and skies becoming sunny and clear. so overnight low temperatures will be mainly in the low 50s, although a little chillier up north of santa rosa, where we'll have a low of about 48 degrees. at santa cruz, a low of 49. highs tomorrow 61.5 moon bay 67 here in san francisco 71. oakland around the bay shoreline, mainly mid to upper 70s up in the north bay 80 at napa 79 santa rosa inland east bay, mainly mid to upper 80s so mild to warm there, but certainly not hot like the weather we had yesterday on friday. san jose will top out at 79. here's the accuweather seven

day forecast. looks like a pretty steady pattern of high temperatures going through most of the week mid 80s inland. we'll see upper 70s mid to upper 70s around the bay shoreline. low 60s on the coast. but as we get into the end of the week, we expect a little bit of a warm up, but only by a few degrees. now i'll be moderating a special town hall tuesday called the abcs of aging getting older and wiser. join me for this important conversation with a panel of experts at the san mateo main library. space is limited, so you must rsvp. and if you can't make it in person, you can watch the town hall live on abc seven news.com or anywhere you stream abc seven news. >> and you can be any age to go. >> that's exactly right, because we're all aging. we. >> thank you so much, spencer. turning our attention. you know, we don't have warriors, but the valkyries are just as good, right? >> valkyries are just as good. i looked at the weather. spencer, that's a nice giants homestand. whether they're coming home for a week. and that should be nice. all right, coming up in sports, the valkyries, they're back in the bay getting ready for

another game tonight. chase. and finally the giants. big swing of the bat in south beach. a hap

mound. strike out ends the second. he had five strikeouts, one earned run in five and a third innings. giants searching for that big hit. top four two on two out one nothing lead luis matos. high, deep, please get out of the yard. it does. three run blast. it's a fourth of the season for nothing. giants a huge swing of the bat in the eighth though. four two. giants lead camille duvall on for the four out save. bases loaded in a jam. gets the ground out with the bases loaded and two outs. family and friends cheering him on. that was cool to see this weekend. marlins bring the tying run to the plate in the ninth. little tapper duvall he'll take it. fires across for the out. giants win four two. mom is happy in the sand. seventh save of the year. 14th straight game with four runs or fewer. but hey a win is a win in that home run. felt really big. >> i mean, the way we've been scoring runs, it felt like a 20 run homer at the time. obviously we had to grind at the end and be nice not to have to play that game every day, but we'll take it at the end of the day. we

played a lot of close games on the road trip, one game under 500 and it felt like worst coming into this game, but just because of the games we play. but it was nice to pull this one out. now we go home for a little bit of an extended period. >> if only you could hit a 21 home run. all right, ncaa baseball tournament, saint mary's oregon state and elimination game. playing right now in the fourth. beavers up three. nothing. thais peterson to the deep part of the yard off talon gardini for nothing oregon state. now the gaels had just one hit through five. brian dourif thinks he has another. but look at the shortstop play. jared knows his field bouncer off the turf across the diamond for the out, and in the fifth top of the five is another home run. trent caraway this time made it five nothing. nine two oregon state in the six. it does look like the gaels season is coming to a close. unless, of course, they can hit that 21 home run that bob melvin was talking about. all right. after two tough road losses earlier this week against walnut creek, sabrina ionescu and the defending champion new york liberty, the golden state valkyries back in the bay opening the first of six straight commissioner cup games,
