with some mid 80s outside. but tomorrow, watching a sea breeze that could push some low clouds our way. we'll let you know what it means for your sunday forecast when we come right back.

the solar system is scheduled to put on another spectacular show this weekend. you might remember a couple of weekends ago we experienced the super moon. tomorrow it will be the ring of fire looking a little like this. a solar eclipse in the afternoon and early evening with the peak at just about 6:32, 6:33. this natural phenomenon occurs when the moon passes between the earth and the sun, casting a shadow on earth. right now we're going to

check in with ron and he's going to tell us a couple good spots to check this out. >> for the bay area our inland valleys will have a pretty good view as we won't have to worry about any low clouds. around this time tomorrow we should be nearing the peak of the annular solar eclipse. it begins just after 5:00 our time and will continue through about just after 7:30. but the peak viewing will be right there at 6:32. now the best viewing in northern california we're going to get about 94% coverage of the sun will be from about your eke ra, redding, heading over towards reno. the bay area a good view as well. 80% to 85% coreage of the sun. this all happening right around 6:32 tomorrow. now, if it happened today, we'd have no problems with viewing because we've got clear skies from most of our inland areas down to the coast. outside, we've got mostly clear conditions, a little haze there blowing in to san francisco as that late day sea breeze starts to pick up. which looks like on the coast

tomorrow as the eclipse gets under way we will start to see some patchy low clouds. right now down to 62 degrees from a high of 66 in san francisco. to our friends in livermore, where it was 85 today, now down to 79 degrees. gilroy cooling off down to 78 degrees. we got the good onshore breeze going. you can see the south winds reaching into the north bay valley. that will help to cool things off and that stronger sea breeze tomorrow will mean unlike what we see right here on the satellite view where we're free of any low clouds tomorrow, climbing those low clouds starting to come back late in the day. the jet stream is going to dip a little bit further to the south. this is going to bring in the low clouds to the coast late tomorrow. then on monday, actually punch in those low clouds across the bay area leading to a cooling trend for the inner bay and out along the coast during the day tomorrow. in terms of the low clouds during the day tomorrow. what we're going to start to see from solar points southward towards santa cruz, the stratosphere approach the coast. right around 6:00 tomorrow evening and again our inland

g eas, probably still some goodi inewduring the evening tomorrow for the solar eclipse. temperatures tomorrow, looking at inmostly low to mid 80s from san jose south down towards morgan hill. tri-valley, still pretty warm. may even see some upper 80s tomorrow before the sea breeze really starts to kick in. then on the coast, look out for low clouds. pacifica down toward half moon bay late in the afternoon. the three-day forecast shows tomorrow will be the last of the really warm days. as that sea breeze cranks up it's going to get windy again. on thursday we had some gusty conditions. we're going to get the same pattern setting up tuesday into wednesday, cooler and maybe unsettled heading towards next weekend. but i do think for the solar eclipse tomorrow most of the bay area should get some pretty good viewing of that. we're going to bring it to you safely with all our cameras around the bay area. >> all right. thank you, rob. and still to come, a little scuffle on the red carpet. we'll show you what prompted actor will smith to slap a tv reporter. ttz4z5z5z5

as you probably heard by now, facebook is finally a public company. it was the most anticipated initial public offerings in years. and despite soaring expectations, shares closed fairly above their opening price. the stock finished with a 23 cent gain on its opening day to close at $38.23. some say that means bankers priced it just right. but others were disappointed there wasn't a big run-up yesterday. either way, here's just a little perspective on how big this company is right now. >> the fact that a company that didn't exist eight years ago is able to be created from nothing, and is now worth more than bank of america, worth more than mcdonald's, there's incredible wealth created and it's great for the economy. a $12 billion windfall for the state of california alone. >> indications are that facebook was bought primarily by individual investors, not institutions, yesterday.

after last night lieutenant governor gavin newsom has a new occupation to add to his resume, talk show host. the first episode of the gavin newsom show made its debut on current tv. that's the cable channel founded by former vice president al gore. his first guest was cycling star lance armstrong. in a recent interview newsom said he pitched the idea for the show after clearing it with his lawyers. he plans to donate his salary to charity. at the premiere of a movie in moscow a journalist got a little too close for comfort. the tv reporters approached smith on the red carpet, put his hand on his shoulders and tried to kiss him. smith pushed him away, gave him a light slap across the clique. the movie star went about his business promoting "men in black 3," the new movie. right now we're checking in. game two of the series. >> wow. >> i know, bam. what's up? >> don't mess with will smith, okay? don't get too close.

too close could for comfort. speaking of hitting someone, game two of the bay bridge series had the fans a little nervous down the stretch. no punches landed. that's a god thing. but ryan vogel son and tyson ross, we'll tell you who was celebrating when it was all over. plus a player and a reporter hit in the face with shaving cream when it was all said and done. great video there, stay tuned. sports is next.

welcome back to nbc bay area. you know, bay area teams playing with an attitude. that's what's going on with san jose rights on the line you know a's and giants are not seeing eye to eye right now and they'll do just about anything to win the bay bridge series. oakland looking to even the series this afternoon, game two of the three-game series. top of the first, jamar weeks, going to the plate. now this is one of the a's best players. hits the fly ball to left. melky cabrera. no way you can make this catch. then again we're talking about melky. nice grab right there. ryan vogelsong got the start for the g-men mowing the a's down left and right. in the second inning, oh, you can't hit that. but about kurt suzuki in the third? swing, can't catch up with the heat. vogelsong was perfect through 4

1/3 innings. bottom of the sixth, arias grounds into the 5-3 double play. third double play by tyson. runners on first, no outs, vogelsong squares up the bunt. the ump says the pitch hit him. vogelsong says yes i definitely was hit. in fact of all places, he pointed to his chest. now bob melvin, the a's skipper, was not buying it. he went out there to argue. there's no way it hit him in the chest. he would have been knocked out. three batters later bases loaded, one out for cabrera, a sac fly to right and here comes the first run of the game. giants take the lead. 1-0. next batter was busty posey. but he hits into a ground rule double! so right center. ryan vogelsong will score. it's now 2-0 san francisco, and they continue to roll. angel pagan has been red hot. he singles to center.

two more runs come in, it's 4-0 giants and bob melvin has seen enough. he went back out there to argue, ejected for the second time in three games. giants win 4-0. that's the a's eleventh straight loss at at&t park. >> ryan vogelsong continues to show the 2011 was not a fluke. in his last four starts he's not allowed more than one earned run, and has pitched at least seven innings in all of them. >> threw well to both sides of the plate. commanded the change-up well. had a good curveball going. >> i don't know if we squared him up a whole lot. one of the times this year that i've been here that we haven't hit the ball hard. just one of those days where you've got to tip your hat to that guy. he was really good today. >> the giants starter still feels there's room for improvement. he has a long way to go to prove the daughters wrong. >> i think i need to do it for the whole season, and you know i

talked to you guys about that a little bit. at the end of last year, and spring training, and that's a big goal of mine for the season is to have another solid year. and kind of be able to put that beside me for going forward. i still feel like i have a lot to prove. >> continue where he left off last year, and we're fortunate to bring him back and what he did for us last year. but you know, the run off a nice streak like this, give off one run shows you how good this guy is. good series going on there. finally kentucky derby champ i'll have another returned to the track for the second leg of the triple crown. an exciting finish in the preakness. i'll have another battles the favorite bodemeister all the way down to the wire. i'll have another given by mario gutierrez gets the victory.

next up the belmonte for the triple crown. the last triple crown winner was a horse named affirmed. and that was 34 years ago. horse racing living at the top of the world right now. that will do it for right now. we'll talk a little bit later. >> thank you, henry. we have an update. we're learning that facebook ceo mark zuckerberg apparently got married this weekend. there's a picture on his facebook time line at least at this point. but he was in the bay area yesterday. where he opened the nasdaq from his facebook headquarters in menlo park. we'll have more as soon as we get it.
