model like we usually do. just go looking for rain, and we've got a couple opportunities this week we've got we already had a little bit this morning. and last night, we're going to see a little bit more, maybe some substantial rainfall in the north bay as we go into tomorrow night into tuesday, so here it is here on the model. so it just this models high resolution, so it just gives you the idea. but look where the jet stream is, gives you a feel for the general pattern. so, 10 o'clock tomorrow night, so right around there about two a.m. tuesday that thing starts to pass overhead. hangs out in the mountains. they're going to probably have a winter storm warning up there. then we get a break. so it's tuesday. now we're into wednesday. now we're into thursday. now we're due friday. now are friday and now we're just saturday and right there. that looks pretty good. see that and again. it looks good you got that doesn't look that good. yeah, it looks pretty good this on this long range model because it shows me a jet stream pretty far south. and it shows me moisture available. that's what we need right now. so let's keep our fingers crossed and hope this all pans out tuesday looks pretty okay. i mean, it's not

what we need, but it's something these are the forecaster. these are the current temperatures forecast overnight lows aren't going to be much cooler. it's going to be down in the thirties . tonight in the coldest spots, upper thirties and low forties, so temperatures are running a little cooler than last night. 49 in an jac just 42 in santa rosa greenville. you'll be about 38 degrees. maybe some process some of those inland valleys. here's the system stuff. big big spinner up there, so that's going to stay for a few days, and that's going to linger into saturday. that's going to bring us our best shot at real rain. but that's a moisture plume and yes, that's an atmospheric river not directed in our direction, but something that could deliver some range starting late tomorrow night. here's the model. this is more granular, too short range model, so it's a little bit of crisp and in terms of detail here is tomorrow night about midnight. and then the showers start for us around me for 567 a m. look at the mountains like tahoe and then the afternoon so going on to lake tahoe, and then we kind of

start to clear out, so it's kind of an overnight tomorrow night into tuesday morning, until about lunchtime, maybe a little beyond that, hopefully, itself forecast highs tomorrow. yellows of the seventies. we get clouds increasing as you would expect. tomorrow so kind of a you know, it's not a wet day tomorrow, but tuesday will be kind of shower, especially in those morning hours. these are the forecast highs still mild. it's kind of a lower latitude storm. you may notice all that moisture that atmospheric river pointed out. that's a kind of a subtropical tap, so that's why it's going to be so mild and stays mild all week. but if you look in here, you got that chance on tuesday, which looks pretty good to me. and then on friday night into saturday, we got a heck of an opportunity that saturday deal looks like it could be the real deal. so fingers crossed on that. i'll see you back here tomorrow night. yeah, we definitely could use some rain. all right, bill. thank you. russia's invasion of ukraine has caused gas prices despite even more across the country, the average us price of regular gasoline has jumped 79 cents in the past two weeks and is now at a record setting average of $4.
