setting them off at least at a lower altitude so you are still able to see something. you can see san francisco right now we do have the high clouds up above right near the coastline you can also see the fog that is beginning to return. if you're headed to san francisco for the big show have a great time, but also the clouds will be with us. don't forget your jacket. have temperatures in the low to mid 60s as we head to the next several hours. now through the inland valley were also going to be cooling off eventually bite 9 p.m. a lot of the show starts. 9-10 vmware down to 60 degrees in the cloud cover is also with us. if you're outside for just a little bit today you know it felt strange out there. we have temperatures slightly below average. the other thing you notice is the humidity. certainly a little bit tropical outside. look off to the distance maybe saw a few towering clouds. pressing the humidity come in from the south. it is being generated by the system just off shore that is slowly living closer towards
