11:15 pm
peck. >> that pretty rare wasn't reassuring enough. let's get back on track. two things to talk about, starting to get foggy tonight. let me spot like that and then talk about the rain coming our way monday. if we look at the view from our camera on treasure island, it's not bad in the city, but in the north bay it's already started to get foggy. so much so the sensor at santa rosa is recording misting happening on it. it's fog for oakland, fog for concord. another way is to put the visibility map up and look for the smallest numbers. the numbers tell you how far you can see down the road in miles. when you get down to 0.3 in santa rosa or concord, that's where you'll hit the problem spots. we've done this for the last week and a half, patchy fog certainly an issue tomorrow morning, but it will be relatively warm because in addition to the fog, we're pulling in a much higher deck of clouds that will be with us much of the day tomorrow. tomorrow will be kind of a
11:16 pm
cloudy day. as a result, temperatures don't climb super high. we'll stay in the low to mid- 60s. you don't get the beautiful crystal clear blue sky day tomorrow, but tuesday you will. in between there will be clouds on monday. let's see where the rain comes in monday night. right there, that system gets pulled onshore. i'll put it into the high resolution forecast just to watch that. we'll slow it down. this has recently developed into more impressive looking rain than just 24 hours ago. we'll watch showers start tomorrow night north bay, work their way across the rest of the heart of the bay overnight. so you might even miss this because by the time we get to 7:00, 8:00 in the morning tuesday, it's done. it's doubtful this will have any kind of significant impact on the morning commute. however, there will still be some slick roads tuesday morning. so think about that in advance for the drive, but the rest of the day tuesday watch the clouds disappear. tuesday will be one of the
11:17 pm
prettiest days around here in a while because this system will clear out all the haze finally. it will be great air quality. tuesday looks great. we could get 0.2-inch of rain, maybe a little less. the next system is coming from up there. that means it's going to be noticeably colder. that will be thursday's chance for rain. that will drop our daytime highs to the mid-50s which might be the most significant impact from it. if we look at futurecast, that's thursday, again early morning light rain from that, doesn't look like a significant rainmaker. it will be a better snowmaker in the sierra than rain here and the totals are pretty light. that's thursday. we'll adjust that as we get closer to it. it will mean more snow in the sierra, though. the monday system drops a little snow and then the thursday system comes in and drops a little more as well. these are not blockbuster storms, but they're at least something. it's nice to see a start. in the seven-day forecast rain
11:18 pm
on thursday in the morning. we could have put rain here tuesday morning, but most of tuesday really is going to be a pretty day. notice the cooldown by the time we get to next week. daytime highs will be in the mid-50s. remember you've gotten so used over the last two weeks to daytime highs just going up to like almost day for most locations except for the last few days. so it will feel cooler by later this week. brian, back over to you. >> thanks, darren. during the pandemic one in five households added a pet and as folks head out of town for holiday reunions or back to the office in the new year, how are the pets going to cope? >> if you haven't already booked with a local pet sitter or boarding facility, you're probably out of luck. >> tune into our original report home alone, what you need to know when our worlds reopen and how to best help your pet tomorrow night on kpix5 news at 7:00. but still ahead tonight how bay area musicians are rallying
