temperatures will be the warmest. bodega bay reaching 80 degrees. saturday it drops back to 65. we can see the comparison between today and saturday. it will be much cooler all along the coast. the heat does break down. high pressure is high overhead right now. it weakens the onshore flow and allows it to creep into the east. into the next couple days high pressure moves to the east and does allow for a little bit more wind to come in off the ocean and cool off our temperatures, and there may be even enough lift to bring in some of that monsoonal moisture and could fire up a couple of storms for the sierra, but stays away from most of the bay. the temperature trend is once again peaking today and going down this weekend by sunday 84 degrees which is still above average. this weekend's forecast the hot day on friday again in peninsula at 87 degrees. san francisco 72 degrees and then we see the temperatures a little closer to average for

this time of year in the tri-valley reaching 90 and then 85 degrees on sunday while the north bay drops back to 79 degrees for the end of the weekend. i'll have another look at weather coming up right now. back to you, scott and chris. >> thank you, kari. up next at 11:00, a face-off caught on camera. we'll show you what happens when a house cat takes on that big cat.

most powerful position inside the powerful public utilities commission. >> i want to see us actually be able to follow through on those kinds of core values here at the puc in a way that people can see it, they can feel it, they can taste it they can hear it and they can smell it. >> tony repeatedly reached out to brian cherry the former pg&e exec. our calls were not returned. we should point out michael picker sat down with tony for more than an hour to answer questions. his predecessor, michael peavy, avoided several similar requests. if you have a tip for our investigative unit, call 888-996-tips or sent an e-mail theunit@nbcbayarea.com. more twists in the braze prison escape. >> the convicted killers still on the run. nbc's stephanie gosk has the
