5:16 pm
actually. they're always running to the store if they have a child. what they're doing what may be different about what they're doing is organizing it and giving it a mission. they have big plans. they would love to see this spread nationwide. hunter's chest in police stations across the country for the kids they see in there in a tough situation. >> definitely makes them feel better even just a little bit. thanks, garvin. >> thanks, garvin. outside it's sunny, not much snow if you go to the sierra. satellite shows the difference between this year and last year. this year is on the right just in case you didn't know. the snow pack is about 60% of average and it's ski week for a lot of schools in the bay area. there's not much snow. >> make it -- >> they're grasping on. next month could offerom better chances. we're going to have details on that in my long-range forecast. as we just talked about, all of the sunshine is, well, we have to pay the price here. and i did want to start off tonight with a look at our
5:17 pm
drought monitor. in case you missed this, you can see over california we are starting to see some drought beginning to spread back in primarily over fresno and visalia, some moderate drought. then these areas of yellow, that's where we are considered to be abnormally dry. it's all due to the lack of rain and also the lack of snowfall. 5 to 8 1/2 inches below for that sierra snow pack 53% of normal. so coming up in about 2 minutes i'll take you into that long-range forecast and i'll show you exactly what i'm seeing as we head throughout the next 40-day forecast. yes, 40 days. we'll take you into march. as we start off tomorrow morning, i think this is easy. we are good to go.t you down toa south bay at 40. also coming in with 38 in the north bay. that's the number one chill tomorrow morning. san francisco sunshine and 45 and over to the east bay 41. now, i do see numbers cooling off a couple degrees tomorrow. we're above average, though. it's just not going to be cold enough to get us back down to
5:18 pm
where we should be in the mid 50s. so we have to just enjoy it, right? if we can't get the rainfall, head outside. it's looking pretty good here. 71 in gilroy, let's bring you to the east bay, relatively light winds out of the north at 00 hayward 64 degrees. chilliest at half moon bay 57. red wood city i have you at 66. san francisco feeling the chill. 62 in the embark dare owe, 57 for the 68 here in napa. also 64 in mill valley. so gorsther tomorrow, but then once we hit thursday and friday i am seeing some changes. but the possibility of getting rainfall just continues to lower, at least with this system. let me show you why. the storm system will be centered offshore moving to the south. eventually moving into los angeles. so for us we see some clouds increasing then eventually a chance of spotty shower.
5:19 pm
but no hope for widespread rainfall this week. so here's the extended forecast. clouds increase on thursday. spotty chance on there in san francisco. and we're primarily dry here over the next seven days. inland valley forecast. 60s to low 70s. right as we head into the incredible. up to 70 degrees. but obviously what we need is some big rainfall. we don't have it, so let's bring you into that long-range forecast. right now no lanina, no el nino. we are considered to be neutral. stronger storms well to the north next ten days, but march, a ha, we do have increasing rain chances for the month. the problem i see, though, as we head through march is they could be coming more out of the north. i think we'll get some rain as we head through march, but they may not tap into that super wet westerly or southwesterly storm path. we'll take anything we can get. i still think march looks promising the way things look
5:20 pm
now. >> jeff. >> seeing smoke on the peninsula. that's next. vo: four years ago, donald trump beat the democratic establishment. and then he outlasted democratic insiders in washington on impeachment, despite his obvious crimes and corruption. romney: the president is guilty. vo: now, if we don't do something different this time around, he'll win again. we simply can't afford to nominate another insider or an untested newcomer who doesn't have the experience to beat trump on the economy. we need to think different. tom steyer is a progressive businessman who left his company and is using his time and money to beat big corporations and address climate change. he can expose donald trump as a fraud
