3:43 pm
3:44 pm
>> the valais law also known as the biden when sailors are being spotted on beaches across the bay area to jellyfish like creature that is known for its beautiful blue hues. but it's a little concerning to people who are finding them along the coastline. and for more now on what they are, what we should do if we find them. we're joined now by melissa chu, a quest, the director animal care at the aquarium of the bay in san francisco. thanks for joining us. >> also happy to be here and talk to you guys about these
3:45 pm
animals. thanks for having of a layla. >> what? what is it? and then we have some video to show people. can you describe also what it looks like to you? >> yes, so ayla or biden when sailors easier to say here to they are tiny like they're and so we say that they're jellyfish, jason, so for for everyone out there, you can just kind of consider them to like a jellyfish they're related to things like the portuguese man of war, which is a little bit more well known, but rest assured not nearly as dangerous. you don't want to confuse anyone there. a couple inches. lot when they're full grown. they have a little stale that a lot of people say looks like a clear potato and they have a nice blue ring around that. that's kind of there as they're floating to ocean. i mean, a pretty cool looking blue colors really pretty. i love the description of a clear. >> potatoes is it concerning that so many are washing up
3:46 pm
and which beaches are people finding them the most at? >> yes. that's a tough one to really answer definitively, at least for me. i'm not a climate scientist. but, you know, one thing that i can tell you about jelly is is that overall jelly species worldwide will thrive in warmer waters. and we know that we've been seeing some of hottest surface temperatures of the ocean on record. historically speaking in the past few years. so that means we're going to see more jellyfish this particular species has been known to wash up along the shorelines. they had a big wash up of them down in southern california last year. we see them periodically here. so it's not really i'm super alarming in terms of rare, you know how rare it is. how are friends? it is around here. you know, you can definitely say that weather patterns, manmade climate change, el nino and all those things are really having a factor on that frequency. and even now seeing a orleans. >> i read that they were showing up a lot of ocean
3:47 pm
beach, fort funston in baker beach. some beaches also and marin county. that's where people could see them. >> we're walking around. we're going on a nice little walk along the shoreline. we've got our pets with us. like if we see that much, we do probably not touch them. i would assume. >> yeah, that's just good rule of thumb for anything. morrow led wildlife be while that's you know what? i try to teach my kids and tell everyone look with your eyes, you know, is that very simple? it's hard to do. you want to check them out? you want to touch him, but i'm just leave him they can cause some skin irritation. it's pretty mild. but, you know, don't want get too close to for people in sensitive skin. generally, you know, you want to keep your pets clear of him to because you never know what will happen if they ingest them. just look at him, take some they're really, really cool for sure. they're cool. and we'll be just kind of get swept back away. will animals come eat them? >> i think a little bit about actually, you know, the
3:48 pm
biological process will happen. nature will no major will do major at williamson. animals will eat they can, you know, some of them will get swept back out to sea. no, just naturally kind of dehydration, decompose, all those death right? well, they're cool looking, but look with your eyes. melissa's west, the director of animal care from the aquarium of the bay and san francisco. thank you for joining >> thanks so much. enjoy your day. you too. it is not, though, apparently a beach day today, but here we are looking at the exploratorium and bros from the shot. but that's all right. we got going to track where that rain is going. and you haven't been on the coast and seeing those things no, i haven't. but i know what they reminded me of those beautiful glasses that you get that have the blue rim, you know, talking about. >> like the drink yeah. they kind of look like that to me. they're really pretty, although, yeah, i think it's best to just look and and leave them be here. we are taking a live look at half moon bay and my goodness. i think that maybe is that a kite surfer at their summit with the kites hard to make it
3:49 pm
out. there. >> they've got plenty of wind to deal with us for sure. you can see the rain that is hitting the camera right here as we start to have some showers that are going right over half moon bay. kind of see as we take a look here is this line of showers is kind of roll in over the santa cruz mountains. and if zoom in here, you can see right now some of them showing up in los altos across fremont, even in san jose. they are light showers. but there certainly enough to make those roads very slick. so you can see as we continue over to the east bay here, spots like 6 88 80, you're definitely going to be seeing some of that on the roads. it can start ponding rather quickly. also in the north bay. now, along with one, you can see parts of petaluma getting some t light showers and they got about a 10th of an inch of rain already today up in the north bay. so if you are headed out about just to be careful, as you can see, this line is going continue to roll through as we get through the evening, i leaving a little heavier as we get later into the evening and afternoon here. all that's courtesy. this low pressure system sitting off of the coast and it's going bring about a quarter of an inch of rain between now and tomorrow and
3:50 pm
then that low pressure system is going to be on the move and head south. >> and when that kind of parks right off the coasts, right by us, it's going to throw a lot of energy our way, including more rain as you can see here. but also the chance of a thunderstorm and even some kind of nasty wind as we get to tomorrow afternoon or friday afternoon. i should say. but once we get through saturday, you can see these rain chances really ramp down. and it's a very different story as we get into next week. so just kind of showing you this. we've got the front tracking through tonight. then we've got that low pressure system that's going to track right to the south right down the coast. once that's done, then we get some beautiful weather on the other side of it. we warm up. we get the sunshine back. so here's a look at your extended forecast. and yes, you're going to take that umbrella with you today. tomorrow, saturday by sunday, things are changing by monday. it's kinda gorgeous. monday, tuesday, wednesday, feel-like, vanna white here. but i mean, that's, you know, doesn't get any better than that. >> by the thank you. san francisco supervisor. there's one about it anyway. that
