area of low pressure off the coastline. you see this little swirl in the atmosphere with the green here. that's an area of low pressure coming toward the coastline, kind of falling apart as it gets here. but there's a slight chance we could pick up a couple scattered sprinkles as that system comes by on thursday, saint paddy's day. but behind that, a more impressive system. this one looking better than it did yesterday. so we get into a saturday morning. here you are. you've got a good cold front all the way across california. only down 2 point conception may be making its way in los angeles. so i think we're waking up some rain on saturday morning giving way to some sunny skies by late in the day. but that will be a nice a storm rolling on through. and then you get that big dome of high pressure building in the middle of next week. the first week of spring. i think we could be talking about some temperatures in the mid 80's by then as well. so a big change in the weather pattern coming our way forecast for some of the rainfall totals will begin the weekend. this is the way on the forecast. but here we go as we head into friday, you've got that weak system sliding by on saint patty's day. that may bring a little something and then

nice little soaking but spring. yeah, just don't. i think by sunday we're going to sunshine breaking out by next week. look at those temperatures on tuesday and wednesday, 80's, maybe mid 80's by the middle of next week. all right. thank you, lauren. well, don't be like this guy. look at that. caught on camera driving through a lower barrier and then crashing on a rising drawbridge. >> this happened saturday in daytona beach, florida. police say the motorcyclist failed to observe the red flashing warning lights collided with a large flashing red arm, then got off his motorcycle just as his bike actually fell off the bridge motorcyclist was given a ticket for careless driving. >> and take a look at this. the skies are arens. this is across southern spain as a storm brought dust from the sahara desert. climate experts say spain now has the most unfavorable air quality of any country in the world. topping even china and india. spain's
