demands are typically very high in the bay area. >> this is the time of year people use the most water, so their bills are going to be the highest. >> reporter: an 8% rate increase and temporary 25% drought surcharge starts today. >> our average customer using about 250 gallons a day in their home will probably see their bill increase from $48 a month to $60 a month when you combine the regular rate increase with the temporary drought surcharge. >> reporter: they say the less water used, the less a bill would be impacted. some customers believe they've already made the cuts that they can. >> i don't like it at all. you should do as much as you can to conserve but, i mean, to be jabbed that much of a surcharge is a lot. >> reporter: now excessive use penalties will be taking effect for customers using more than four times the average amount. those penalties will be assessed in september.

explosive fireworks. >> even the safe and sane there's always a danger they'll malfunction. they do have flash powder in them like everything else. they just don't have as much. i think a lot of people believe these are just fireworks, but they're really not. everything dangerous to explosives is completely against the law anywhere in the state. in california these are explosive devices. they have enough powder to meet that criteria for the state law. they go boom. >> reporter: and surrounding police agencies like san jose are on the lookout for anybody bringing in any type of fireworks. >> we are discouraging anybody from possessing or using fireworks on their own whether they be considered illegal or safe and sane. >> we want to have fun but we don't want to blow nobody's house up. we're all trying to be safe and just have fun out there. it's fourth of july. you have to celebrate, family barbecue, that's it. >> that was really cute.

showers at times. so the sea breeze picking up and the brief chances of seeing showers as it evaporates in the atmosphere, both help to cool things off a little bit. the 24-hour temperature change for parts of the bay area you see that 10% across the valleys. with the numbers still in the mid-90s, the heat advisory continuing through 9:00 for the tri-valley and south bay valley. temperatures staying warm right now. sunol 87 degrees. some showers passing by there and check out the radar view as we don't often get to do this as we look at temperatures in the 80s and 90s and showers moving across the bay area. close to dublin and pleasanton a few more to san francisco, maybe a few brief sprinkles. but where this is coming from there's more to it. it continues to spill in from the east and crossing the bay area. as we head into tonight and tomorrow brief showers possible, replace the heat with the humidity and in the mountain tops we could see a slight chance of some thunder especially out to the sierra.

cooling on the other side of the bay now down 70. as we get you to san jose 76 degrees. not too bad, a few light showers passing by earlier just before 5:00. and the few in sunol pretty interesting. 84 degrees. we've had some showers cross over 680 and moving into the east bay hill tops. notice the temperatures around the east bay still some 90s inland. it's very unusual to have 80s and 90s. need the radar for the scattered showers which are coming through. a lot of this heat cooked in before the clouds arrived earlier but still some low 90s inland around pittsburgh and brentwood. but from here on out, things will begin to cool down. this is the way the day started in sunol. you get the high-level clouds and then lowering cloud decks as mid level clouds started to come in and you can see the rain drops out there, not all of it reaching the ground but at times the radar is picking up a little something out there closer to san ramone right now in dublin. a few brief, light showers

moving from east to west and back towards san francisco looks like we're going to have a little bit of light rain coming in going from east to west across the screen as this moisture coming in which is adding to the humidity very interesting that it is coming in from central california. this upper level system tapped into tropical moisture so you can see off to the east briefly out to fresno some lightning strikes, too. so as this moisture crosses the bay area we will see the chance of brief showers and there is a slight chance we might see an isolated thundershower. you see a flash of light in the skies. could be an isolated thundershower. that high pressure which brought the high temperatures right around western flank of it as the airflow moves clockwise around high pressure you can see it's pulling up that moisture out of the deserts, towards the bay area and then from now through probably friday we have the chance of seeing scattered showers in the forecast in addition to the humidity. so some showers possible heading into tomorrow and one of the other headlines, too, the cooling temperatures for thursday to friday but you can

see scattered showers and intense thundershowers likely in the sierra from tomorrow all the way to the start of the holiday weekend. highs tomorrow in the 80s around san jose. 60s to low 70s. closer to san francisco for the north bay highs in the 80s and upper 80s to low 90s around the tri-valley and the cooling trend kicks in as we get to the weekend. notice the slight chance of seeing a few scattered showers into friday and then the temperatures cool down for the weekend. inland numbers that were this the 90s and just above 100 degrees now in the mid-80s as we get into the weekend. the same story for the north bay and tri-valley things beginning to cool off. as we lose the chance of showers, a very significant drop in those temperatures just time for sunday. so as that high breaks down and the sea breeze really picks up midway through the, that's going to bring our temperatures down. and if you have fourth of july plans around san francisco right now looks like that fog could be sweeping in towards the evening there on saturday. 59 degrees in san francisco, but notice your outdoor events in san jose not that bad. instead of seeing 90s and

last week. this week some young racers are tearing up the south bay. these cars are called quarter midgets and they're racing in san jose. nearly 100 kids ranging in ages from 5 to 16 are putting the pedal to the metal and they come from all over the country. >> definitely being one of the only girls out here is tough. i put it on the track and show them what it is on the track. >> it feels like you're floating on a cloud. >> now the cars can go up to 100 miles an hour. the main race is friday. admission is free. nascar superstar jeff gordon used to race quarter midgets at this track when he was a young boy growing up. >> future racing star possibly. >> there we go. let's go to sports. i want to talk about the warriors and one of the fan favorites, draymond green. >> show him the money! >> he's being heavily wooed. >> i see you're his agents.

the latest on the nba free agency that began last night at 9:00 p.m. the warriors met with their star restricted free agent draymond green. many expected an agreement. that's not the case. talks between the warriors and green have broken down. the warriors had the first shot to sign green without another team talking to the forward. league sources say the pistons, hawks, and rockets have all shown interest in the michigan state product. the ws can still match any offer he gets. but there was a signing involving a warriors player today. forward harrison barnes was at the team store, market street san francisco, not signing a contract extension but signing autographs for the kids. we asked harrison how important it was to keep draymond in the w's future. >> draymond is a great teammate. to lock him up for a bunch more years coming up in the future would be great.

>> now time for some baseball highlights. giants/marlins and we've got could the violence. these could be characters from monsters universities. buster posey, watch what happens to him. he takes a foul ball right off the kisser. right in the facemask direct hit. posey would leave the game. game at 3-3, brandon crawford solo shot. home run number 11. breaks the tie. if that guy doesn't go to the all-star game i ain't going to watch it. giants lead. the ninth inning in miami. rubber match, a's/rockies and get this everybody, it was big game night. no score, drives one to left. he tries to knock over the chevron sign. butler with his first triple since 2012 scores on a sac fly. single to right. billy come on down.

he scores 2-0. redick gives and gives the double guns in honor of big game hunters everywhere. bases loaded the a's go on to win, 4-1. a beautiful game. not so beautiful finish for england. women's cup semifinal, japan and england. the winner faces the u.s. in the final. the 40th minute england down 1-0. the penalty kick for england shot it in the corner tie game. now we get to something called stoppage time. 92nd minute. a mistouch off the crossbar. that's an own goal. a tough way to lose in the world cup for england. japan wins 2-1. it's a rematch in the 2011 world cup. and for the marlins we have a quick update on the giants/marlins game. michael morse has hit a walk-off home run for the marlins. and they beat the giants by a final of 6-5. that's not how i want to finish
