6:14 pm
is a habitat for mountain lions so no building. but the attorney general is not a fan of that and saying declaring the whole town is a deliberate and transparent attempt in order to avoid complying with sb nine and there is no valid basis for the declaration which is not in the best interest of the mountain lions it wants to protect and they're trying to get reaction from officials but apparently they are out on sunday. today was gorgeous outside in a beautiful day but each day of sunshine around the bay area means another missed opportunity for rainfall. we have the growing concerns for the water supply. >> reporter: here people were eager to get out and enjoy another gorgeous day outside around the bay area and people are looking forward to more warm weather and sunny skies even though it is adding to the drought concerns. a strong start to improving water supply including a major

6:16 pm
for the season based on how much snow and rain we received during the winter. >> reporter: and then conserving as much as you could remains the message now but remaining hopeful the situation can still improve and avoid another year of drought. >> it would make life easier but the truth of the matter is we need to use less. a live look now at dublin and san jose from the mountain cameras there and it certainly doesn't look like february and the conditions are about to get a lot warmer. >> is it so? it is. tonight is the headline in the first alert weather forecast and i will start off with a dramatic view to get us ready for the warm-up that is coming and it is not like it will be a heat wave but we will be above average and we are just getting started in today was nice and a second half of this next coming week will be near records. if we look at the long-range
6:17 pm
forecast, this is the map it takes is for the seven-day leaves often goes out to 10 days and the deeper the shade of red the higher the degree of confidence temperatures will be above average and that is r words a high degree of confidence that temperatures will be above average past the seven-day but we will already be doing impressive enough things in the seven-day so we will start off and you san jose with 62 and the average daytime high and it is a nice day and we didn't have to think about much but watch these orange lines as it climbs and wednesday and thursday and now we are up to 15 degrees above average and 77 by thursday and that will likely break the record and we will do this again and switch to the inland valleys, and i am grouping all of these here because you are all pretty much going to be in line on this one with the tri- valley, concord, north bay
6:18 pm
valleys and this applies to you and the average would be 61 and you're going up to 74 and we probably will see some records broken in the inland valleys but here is the one that stands out. san francisco is going to the same exact place with the mid- 70s and the city by next week. you know that is warm when we are all pretty much in the same place including the city and it is in the opportunity warm-up coming and it may last a will a while and today we are ready started a bit of a warm-up and you probably noticed and today was beautiful with no clouds and we even had less hayes and the temperatures in the upper 60s and a great day. here is how things go tomorrow. we will fill in the valleys with fog in the morning and monday morning commuters in the north bay plan on fog and we did it this morning and we are likely going to do it tomorrow and we will have some in the south bay along the east bay shoreline as well and then it will burn off with another sunny day and the morning lows tomorrow along with that patch of fog will be mid-30s and 40 for san jose low to mid 40s in the heart of the bay and upper 30s for those inland valleys and then here are the daytime highs for tomorrow and we can
6:19 pm

6:49 pm
this week. and for perspective here is today. a lot of mid-to upper 60s and tomorrow we will have 2 degrees on top of this and i will show you that in the second but this is how monday morning will start out. we will pull in the low clouds again monday morning and it will be foggy in the north bay valley and we did that this morning and we will almost certainly do it again tomorrow and a little bit more widespread tomorrow along the east bay shoreline and down into the south bay for san jose and plan on some fog tomorrow and that is the way it is looking with a little bit of an increase in the morning lows go up to the upper 30s in the north bay valley will be mid- 40s and here the daytime highs tomorrow with about 2 degrees warmer than today which puts us at 70 for san jose and santa rosa with air-quality moderate and hazy with more sunshine than anything else and if you are wondering about the rain, the same pattern holds. you could see all of the storms are getting pushed up and over us and that has not changed and watching the rainfall accumulate between now and valentine's day, it is the same pattern but look at the big
6:50 pm
hole we switch to the forecast and it shows us what is responsible for this, the big red bull's-eye is the center of high pressure doing two things. it is been keeping the rain away and that much we know but over the next few days that high will influence the temperatures here at home, and that is how we will get this warm-up. it does re-intensify and watch as we get later into february. that takes us ahead to february 16 and that is the exact scenario you would not one to see. if you want to get rain that is the blocking ridge of pressure that sets up off the coast during a prolonged dry period. we do have it there now but now we know in the middle of february it will double down. and that will be a big story going forward for right now with the focused in the first alert weather forecast is the immediate weather. san jose has 62 with the average and how about 77? that will break the record.
6:51 pm
so records are falling for the south bay and the inland valleys and i am just grouping you all in here the tri-valley and diablo valley and concorde and north bay valleys everybody is still at the same place but this is san francisco at 73 for the daytime high by the time we get to thursday and that is a warm up in the mid 70s and it is a first but it cools a little next weekend but it will still be noticeably warmer than the weekend you just had and the weekend you just had was pretty nice and next weekend will be about 5 degrees warmer than this one was and that is it. back to you. it is a break time for bike riding, right? they say they are being threatened with tickets and being treated like outlaws for riding their bikes.
