santa rosa 56, san francisco 52, san jose 56 and livermore mid 50s. showing you the wind speeds as well you could see concord a gust at 20 miles an hour i actually double checked this earlier there was wind gusts of 48 and right now it's gusting to 35 miles an hour so some areas have the wind other areas don't up towards santa rosa winds only six miles an hour and sfo, a west early breeze gusting to 32 miles an hour. with the wind and the time of the year pollen levels are up so as a result you could be sneezing a bit and trees up there for the high range as well especially the oak, pine and mulberry, so thats the theme for today and the next few weeks, of course it is allergy season here in the bay area. this weather system is cruising out to our east, out toward the sierra so this is responsible for the cool down today and also the gusty winds for the coast and also the bay shoreline. even for the higher terrain. once the system moves on out we will begin to warm things back up by friday and into saturday. saturday will be the warmest day of the wee

otherwise, oakland and san francisco, san jose, all in the 40s. our weather watcher george hughes lives in san francisco, he says, the total rain for the month of february near 7 inches. okay, a little typo there, george. that's okay. i do the same thing in the morning hours, as well. but you know what? i wanted to go ahead and highlight that because typically in san francisco, we should have up to about 4.5 inches of rain in the month of february. so it gave you a good idea, a good flavor, of just how above average our rainfall total has been. winds right now are slight around the rim of the bay calm winds in novato and antioch and fairfield. here's what you need to know for this midweek forecast. lots of bright sunshine today. don't forget your sunglasses. warmer than yesterday. almost a perfect average winter day here in the bay area. dry weather pattern through friday and then a slight chance of rain returning right here on sunday. but i'm in complete denial about it. computer models are arguing. one thing that's certain is the coast is clear.

i'm a patron of the san francisco municipal golf course. i'm here in support of the final eir for the program that will restore the sharp park golf course and the maintenance of this plan i would just like to make the comment that i have closely followed the sharp park controversy for over a decade including making comments in front of this body in 2009 when supervisor wanted to kill this course and in 2013 when supervisor david alvarez wanted to kill this course and now them are still here but i still am so i'm just saying. even though sharp park is within the plan as it should there is still an important issue here. we have a golf course operation at sharp park for 80 years. this has included a habitq of the california of the red legged frog and i urge the board to move forward and start the process to improve this habitat and manages habitat for the frogs and the snakes in sharp park and for the golfers. we have many san francisco recreation and park employees that have have a right to do this and are great stewards for the park and for
