bit of condensation by the morning commute. then those clouds peel back to the coast by the midafternoon hours. pretty steady temperatures not only friday but through the weekend as this area of low pressure dangles off the pacific northwest coast. so tonight, becoming overcast in the 40s and 50s. i hope you notice a difference with those refreshing temperatures last night. meanwhile tomorrow's temperatures anywhere from 59 in pacific could to 85 in concord. if you are heading to the alameda county fair in pleasanton, warm temperatures there, fairly nice. i couldn't help myself, fairfield nice at the fair? there is the extended forecast -- fairly nice at the fair? there is the extended forecast. a 10% chance of rain only on tuesday and wednesday and the far reaches of the southern district stow santa cruz mountains and monterey. i got excited when i started seeing the computer models alluding to that. >> crazy. >> nothing to complain about. >> nothing out of the ordinary. >> thanks, ro. there may not be a
