morning, seeing the opportunity of really just a few isolated showers popping up across the region. the central valley. and this year, though, if you look at friday morning into afternoon, take a look at those spots of yellow and orange popping up. that is some thunderstorm activity that really kicks off the weekend for some for further areas inland from the bay. rainfall totals for us. maybe just a sprinkle or 2 at most. well, the sierra does see a chance of thunderstorms, the very highest of elevations like that to get one of the last nose of the season with just a few inches of snowfall. again at those highest of elevations this weekend. temperatures today are going to be in the low 60's at the coast and then mid to upper 60's elsewhere. we're really looking at a mild feel today, but a muggy feel along with it. so don't be surprised by that. winds are a lot calmer than yesterday. so i wouldn't refer to this is a brisk one. just a cooler and cloudier one oakland at 65 today, north bay temps also mid to upper 60's at the very warmest tomorrow. very similar feel mostly
