6:18 pm
degree drop tomorrow. a 10-degree drop in santa rosa. even the places that cool down 0 degrees or more will still go down tomorrow. and you will go down about 4 degrees in san francisco. another eight degrees in oakland. to show you the numbers, concord, 84 tomorrow. 95 today. 81 livermore. upper 90s today. there is fremont, 75 and san rafael will top out at 79. okay, that covers the cooldown. let's move on. there's a chance of rain on monday morning, your drive to work. the first chance of rain for the season. and, if we take a look at the energy here, there is a well- defined line here that futurecast picks up on it and brings the showers toward northern california and by the time we get to midnight. we have really well organized line of rain sitting out there. but, now that we are just to days away from this, we can switch over to the more high resolution forecast model. watch the detail get better and
6:19 pm

6:20 pm
commute and the first rain of the season we have had all summer long. the bacon, the oil, the grease on the roadways. the roads will be a little more slick. so keep that in mind on your drive to work monday. the windshield wiper may only go only about 10 seconds but the road will be slick. seven day forecast. monday's the highlight. after that, we dry out and keep the temperatures average through much of next week. we will stay in the mid 80s inland and keep it in the 70s through the day. see what's coming up later. for now, back to you. sports settleing in at 6:00. wait until you see this amazing football play by a local product on a national stage. and, we have two of our local pac-12 schools going in different directions on the football field. sticaround ll for you set up on in the human brain, billions of neurons play in harmony. for people with parkinson's, some neurons change their tune,

its owner. >> very calm, right sunday? >> reporter: the adoption fair continues tomorrow from 10:00 to 5:00 at the alameda county fairgrounds, devin fehely, kpix5. and what a difference a day makes as diana washington once sang. darren peck tells us about it. >> real fitting for today. but it depended on where you were. for a lot of people there was no difference between yesterday and today. most of us really did get a cooldown. take a look at the daytime highs as you see the clouds streaming in from our camera's vantage point. that's a good sign. we have the marine layer back off the coast. if you look at the daytime highs, concord, you would never know it. 99 today was one degree cooler than we were led. we were about 17 degrees cooler in oakland. made it up to 96. so, a big difference. if we watch the way that played out, why does oakland get such

a big relief? well concord just on the other side of the hill doesn't. i'm using that as my example. the on shore flow turned on today. that was today at 5:00 when we hit the peak heat of the day. you can see the brighter colors showing we got a bit of an on shore flow, but it wasn't enough here. watch how tomorrow will be different. now, these colors are a lot brighter. the streamlines are showing you the on shore flow. we will start importing more air-conditioning to the far east bay. and that's how we will cool these numbers down. so instead of 99, concord, you are going to 84 tomorrow. 81 in livermore. san jose, to 80. 84 in santa rosa. this will be a much more meaningful drop in the temperatures for the majority of us inland. meanwhile, for the rest of us, we went down over 20 degrees in san francisco. we will go down about another four tomorrow. we will cool down. we have done mo of the work today. let's talk about the next item. which is the rain.

for monday. if you watch the futurecast, monday at midnight. we have a really well organized line headed our way. that looks promising. however, it is the first one of the system, first one of the season, and we are just down here on the very southern tail end of it. so we will now play it forward midnight monday. and, watch how that line of showers kind of falls apart. by the time it gets down here. doesn't go away completely. so we have a chance to get light rain out of this and i'm bracketing the commute. that is 6:00 a.m. spotty across much of the bay area across 6:00 a.m. and, 9:00 a.m., we still have a few showers still down on the south bay. we have a day-and-a-half before this comes together. the timing may adjust a little bit. but, this is where the best forecast sits now. a few spotty hit and miss showers right through the commute on monday. and, if you look at the totals, you will see why. this is not that big a deal. at most, we are talking a tenth
6:54 pm
of an inch of rain. it is not that big a deal in that sense, however, i think it is a big deal because it is the first light rainmaker of the season. we just had a whole summer to bake all of the grease and grime into the roadway. the first rain, usually starts to bring that stuff back out and make the roads slick. and, it is happening on your commute to work monday morning. so, keep that in mind on your drive. by the time, we get to 10:00, 11:00 in the morning, it's done. the rest of the seven day looks quiet and average. we'll be back after this. ♪
