with the debt nation? has it? >> fans were cheering on the home team. dan. >> yeah, it's cleanup time at thrive city after that. that tough loss here tonight in the semifinals, you know, didn't pan out the way the warriors fans had had hopes, but they came here tonight. they stayed engaged and they stayed with it until the very and we caught up with some of the fans earlier. and they're still feeling pretty confident. it's not bad to be able to split the series against such a tough team. and based on what we've seen so far, it's it could be a long series and it's going to the series that you to be physical and it's a series. it's going to require you to stay energetic but it was a party here tonight. we have hundreds of people that showed up. there was music, dancing games, photo they were giveaways. people at gold blooded towels and t-shirts on this is something that's going to be happening for every warriors road playoff game. so if you have nothing to do on the night of the game and you can go to the game. come on down here. it's a great time.

of course, one of the big things to do here is watch the game on the huge screen outside of chase center. of course, there's nothing quite like being a, you know, at the game, the atmosphere inside the arena. but i'll tell based on what we saw out here and in some of our reports earlier, this certainly rivals the energy that you would get inside of an arena. a lot of doing a 9 as graham pointed out the last hour, of course, right from the jump because of just how physical and rough and tumble this game and series has been so far tough loss. but the dubs fans we talked with say they're confident that the team we'll bounce back on saturday. >> i think we had within our grasp. but i just know that in the next 2 games, we are going to destroy memphis. keeps on going like this. i can see this going to game 7. >> and why is taking a lawyer? >> so you can see, hey, the fans are still a confident they're feeling pretty good about this. and hey, that

and they are below where they need to be. >> 95% of california is under severe or extreme drought. and that figure was a 66% back in february. so let's take a live look outside as we check on our 4 zone forecast looking out at the beautiful golden gate bridge. first time this hour, we say hello and good evening to chief meteorologist lawrence karnow. >> tell us there's a big rainstorm coming, but i can tell you that. but unfortunately would be true. i just don't see that happen. we do have a chance at least a couple of chances to bring some more showers back into the bay area. think in the next 7 to 10 days. but boy, did you get to this time of year? and it's really just tough. get these storms going out there tonight. we do have a cloudy skies. likely the former not see that fog just yet. expect that fog to form overnight tonight today we really turned things around member yesterday. we saw these temperatures. they were all below the average with so that cool sea moving in along the coast. well, then we have that offshore wind kicking overnight last night. all of a sudden temperatures near 70

degrees today in san francisco. 74 in oakland. yeah, 79 degrees in san jose. 81 in lemore. 83 in concord and 80 in santa rosa. so out the door now you can you've got the cool effects of the sea breeze right along the coastline. 40's out toward the beaches got 50's inside the bay still holding on to some numbers running in the 60's. in fact, upper 60's and the pittsburgh right now, 66 in brentwood and a chilly 48 degrees in petaluma. so high pressure overhead. today we saw more of that northerly wind kicking in and that normally wind was just enough to blow that fog away. you see those clouds moving away from the coastline. but now we're starting to see a little bit more of a sea breeze kicking in more of an northwesterly winds started to develop along the coastline. i think that will be just enough to allow some low clouds and fog to form overnight. tonight and the winds little breezy in spots this afternoon. we have some gusts as high as 30 miles an hour in the san francisco. those are starting to calm down a little bit. but it will be interesting overnight tonight, high pressure, the whole axis is going start to move a little further to the east. so said again that

offshore wind, i think we're going to see a little bit more of an on shore breeze. that may be just enough to bring some fog along the coastline. but you get away from the coast and you're going to heat up in her even inside the bay of find some mid 80's, the santa clara valley and probably some low 90's in spots inland by tomorrow afternoon, kind sitting here on the forecast for the winter watch. still a little bit of a northerly wind developing the north bay. but along the coastline, you still have those arrows that are pushing on shore showing we're not that strong. offshore wind developing overnight. so that leads me to believe that we've got some fog in the forecast for tomorrow. coast side in some cool temperatures out toward the beaches and models. start to pick up on that. to you. see the fog developing along the san mateo county coast pushing inside the bay through some of the mountain gaps by tomorrow morning. so for the commute may be a little bit on the gray side. early on. but as we head toward the middle of the day, lots of sunshine and that fog the surge back on shore. so this is going to be hot. one in london, a plan on some low 90's in places like concord, in antioch, in livermore about 85 degrees and sunny in san jose. even in san francisco,

70 degrees. but half moon bay, cool fog and 59 degrees. >> thank you. lie. so today matt haney was sworn in as a member of the state assembly for the 17th assembly district. winning after after winning a landslide victory in the special election last month, the newly elected assembly member will represent the diverse district encompassing the eastern side of san francisco. california has been. >> leader nationally on a wide variety issues from climate change to how we protect a fundamental human right a marriage equality access to reproductive health in freedom. and these are things that that california is willing to stand up for and protect and even go first in the innovative. >> before his election to the assembly, handy represented district 6 on the san francisco board of supervisors and he previously served as the chair of the budget and

additional bulldozers in investing in additional hand crews while we focus on suppression, we also have to focus on fuels, treatment and fuels reduction. we need to continue to focus our personnel on ensuring that we're doing mechanical in hand, thinning and using opportunities for beneficial fire and and manage fired in the winter months when it is prime to try to reduce those what kind of keeps you up at night as far as when you look ahead to this fire season. >> when i see through the drought monitor that 100% of the state of california is already extreme or severe drought. i look at our reservoirs that are critically low levels. i look at snow pack. that is also a critically low levels for this time of the year. and i look at the light amount of precipitation here in the sacramento area north that we have received this spring. the winds behind that that are drying all the fuels out and the grass crops that are going to carry fire. we're all going

to lead to what will likely be a fire season much like we have seen in 2022 1021 again, that really keeps me up at night. >> chief tyler wants to impress upon property owners to do their part as well to commit to conducting their own fuels reduction in their own defensible space clearances, ensure they have their gutters clean and fuel is removed from around their homes. >> if you want to say fuels, i mean vegetation removed from around their homes, a group effort to make it through or better yet avoid another catastrophic fire season. it is a combination of everything that brings us forward to try to reduce what we're seeing in california year after year. >> so in that he was asked what lessons were learned from some of the recent incidents such as the caldor fire chief said that those fires highlight the need to adapt to the changing environment. and that's what cal fire's doing as the department has more

personnel and modernizes its equipment. still ahead. >> don't forget, it's mother's day this weekend. we have some of that tips for top gifts for the number one woman in your life. after the break. >> and coming up in sports, the warriors got roughed up in memphis tonight. they fought hard, though, taking on the grizzlies day. sun has grizzlies day. sun has highlights. comin oh, wow barbara corcoran! good morning. sorry, but we don't need any business help now. we're gigillionaires. what? we're gigillionaires now. i don't get it we have at&t business fiber with hyper-gig speeds. -but i just... -so thanks, we're doing great. i'm so happy for you! but i'm just here for my order. oh. entre-pin-eurs? yeah, my bowling team. i like it. there's money in puns. do business like a gigillionaire at&t business fiber, now with speeds up to 5-gigs. limited availability.
