important to remember that there is a cost for providing services. and that cost should be borne by the people utilizing the facility or the program. >> reporter: nbc bay area news. interesting story. let's bring in our chief meteorologist. what are we, 40 minutes from friday? >> the theme of the day. >> friday. it is so close. and that friday forecast going to look a little bit better than what we had today. we are going to get low cloud cover, but not as extensive as it was the past 4 hours. by then into hour, temperatures in the mid-70s. and by 4:00 tomorrow right where we should be this time of the year. let's get you outside to a check of that high-definition sky camera network. it looks good here in san jose at the lower levels. and in san francisco, yes, it is fogged in, but not as bad as it was this time last night. that's a key indicator that, again, yes, we have the low

clouds, but it does not look as severe. let's get a look at our friday fog factor forecast. we're going to highlight just about all of our counties. those counties will have the most cloud cover. but for areas around livermore down into san jose, looks like quite a bit of less cloud cover than we've had over the last 24 hours. plenty of widespread sunshine in napa, santa rosa, san jose. if you're headed to the coast again, it is going to be a repeat performance of what we've had in the last two to three days. plenty of foggy skies and brisk conditions. fog at the coast. that will mean yet again more airport delays running from about one to three hours behind with those low ceilings. this is considered major when it comes to airport delays. so if you have any destinations maybe to new york city you could see more dough lays as new york is also expecting weather impacts.

otherwise we'll see temperatures at 78 in san jose. looks pretty god across the east bay when you compare it to what we've had over the past two weeks. almost feels like the ac's on. pleasant pleasanton, 85, livermore. 74 in sonoma, also 80 in napa. do not expect it to get extremely hot. no triple digits coming in that extended forecast. temperatures in the mid to upper 80s for friday, saturday, and also on sunday. and looking pretty steady there on monday and tuesday nest week. some of the forecast models have mid to low 90s. we reserve that right. we'll see about that later on. how about this for a rough

ride. the drover gets the ride of his life as he's swept into a mud slide. and he films the whole thing. stay with us.

oh, my. some amazing video near colorado springs. this is the vantage point from inside of a car being swept away in a mudslide. a thunderstorm spewed rocks and mud over a 4 mile stretch. thankfully no one was injured. here's a smartphone alert for you. while playing with her father's phone, a toddler bought a sports car. her father got an e-mail alerting him that he was the highest bidder. he knew he didn't bid on the car and the several offered to let him out of the deal, but he decided to keep it. he plans to keep it and fix it with the help of his little girl. good luck with that one. we're back with sports in a moment.

it was a big night for the warriors and the giants. >> there's a party in the street at san francisco. the giants got a win. pence may not have won the vote to become an all-star. but the giants did have an all-star on the mound tonight in and dag owe. and that was madison bumgarner. he was awesome. but you need some offense. 2-2. two on. blanco. giants take the lead. they go on to win 4-2, snapping a muny four game losing streak. >> it's like the second coming of jesus christ. he's hieb the most loved man on earth right now.

>> whoa, now that is high praise right there. andres introduced as the latest member of the warriors. he'll be the first player to wear number nine since back in the day. i don't know if the warriors are going to have a better record than they had last year. they might. but they are going to have higher expectations than they have had in a long, long time. >> and steph curry walking on water from here on out. >> talking about high praise, right? >> we'll be right back.
