11:47 pm
a story connected to our climate and crisis series. temperatures in oregon we have been talking about well over 100 degrees this weekend. that's topaz farm. it is pretty much quiet and empty and yes, sweltering.
11:48 pm
you pick areas the bar and the grill and the stores all closing early. many donkeys and cows, all that was cancelled. >> it was sad to me because i love to share that with people especially some kid's birthday if they are excited. luckily we can reschedule them. >> other farms on the island is impacted too. the concern is not only the animals but the crops which could be ruined by this heat. it is that hot. >> it is a high blow for farms who had to shutdown because of fire and smoke. they hope the stretch is not a sign of things to come. here is something popular in the pacific northwest, ice baths. they're being used as therapy in the deserts on the peninsula. probably feels good there. the practice boosts immunity and
11:49 pm
anxiety and stress. any takers on the ice bath? >> i am down. >> i think especially if it helps with the muscle relaxation or all that. >> no triple digits here. further in land, you may want to take a nice bath. temperatures are in the 50s and the 60s. over night lows not a huge change compares to the past 24 hours. we are going to keep some of that cloud cover and the fog early tomorrow morning as well. right now in san francisco, about 60 degrees and check out the over night lows. really no big changes so whatever you are seeing now, probably going to wake up to that again tomorrow morning. right now in san jose, it is about 60 degrees. we are going to keep the 60s in the forecast over night as far as livermore 59 right now. dipping down into just really low 50s as well. doppler radar right now, things are quiet. we got the dry conditions that
11:50 pm
are expected to remain, not just for today but the next seven days. how is your monday going to look. if you are returning back to work early in the morning, expect to see low cloud covers. maybe you can take a nice bath in some of these spots here. we are pretty cool when you compare us to how other spots are doing in the pacific northwest. wind gusts in direction, we saw a little bit of the sea breeze yesterday and today in san francisco. we'll see just a light breeze of 15 or 20 miles per hour. the flow helps keep us normal this time of the year. let's talk about the california heat. we are talking about triple digit temperature. we could see hotter temperatures for tomorrow.
11:51 pm
these are some things i want you to keep in mind. of course about two weeks ago, we had our own triple digits here in the bay area. we are not expecting that the next several days. the high pressure dominating the north here. if you are traveling the pacific northwest, that's where you will see some of that heat. in addition to that, i want to turn your attention to fire danger index. as we get closer to the 4th of july, you know we are in a serious drought and rain deficit and over night typically we see a really nice recovery when it comes to the humidity. temperatures are cooler, look at what happens during the daytime. this is when things start to really kick up when it comes to the concern. we see things dry out. the dew points and the humidities start to shift and once we see humidity drops less than 30%, we are dealing with extremely dry conditions and think of the dry brush out there. be safe and don't light your own
11:52 pm
fireworks. we'll see a boost of temperatures heading into tuesday. probably the warmest day of the week. we go back down into the low 80s heading into next weekend. we have a pretty good week ahead. >> i am excited for monday, it is my day off. >> that's something to be excited about. >> we'll go water my plants. >> thanks a lot. still ahead, breaking post pandemic box office records. how much installment of the new "fast and furious saga" raked in this weekend.
