be and increasingly warm forecast over the next few days today. very mild. we're looking at highs in the 70's for most areas 60's at the coast around the golden gate bridge. got those green hillsides because of our recent rains hoping that keeps us out of fire danger for at least a little bit longer. but it is absolutely the time to clear things out a little bit and always be ready to go. no chances of rain for at least the next 10 days. in fact, not until after the 20th of the month. does any long-range forecast indicate even the slightest chance of rain? so the state is pretty dry here for a bit. we've got the high pressure ridge built up. that's going to send anything to our north. we are breezy, though, especially towards the interior, the bay out into the delta solano county does have a high wind advisory that goes into effect tonight at 11:00pm through 08:00am on thursday. strong northerly winds of potential of even a little bit of an offshore wind, a gust as high as 45 miles per hour. again, that's in the inland areas of the bay area.

temperatures in the 60's towards the coastline. a cool one at the coast. don't forget the jackets as per usual. while the rest of us will see daytime highs just a little bit warmer climbing into the low to mid 70's at the warmest 72 pretty regularly for the south bay, low 70's for the east bay. regardless of if you're inland or by the bay shore, this is going to be so much cooler than where we're going to be in just a couple of days. so if you're not a fan of the warmth, do get out there today and enjoy this really comfortable forecast by friday and saturday, some spots will be close to 90 degrees inland with even the bayshore tapping into some low 80's. michael, thanks, john. and good morning, everyone. it's a 47 your time. taking a look at the roads this morning. we are dealing with some delays specifically over the east bay and the south bay. >> take a look. zoom in a little bit. you can see on 8.80, right now. there is a collision in its closing office. multiple lanes. it's northbound 8.80, near to 38 in san leandro. so just keep that in mind. we're seeing some of those delays not only on the
