>> so which is the company behind the buses, says it plans to tackle the san francisco and los angeles school districts next. and next up, we're going to talk about our forecast. that fog bank is just getting bigger as it moves in. slowly creeping in. we have kyle here to go over what's going on. not only here but across the country. yeah. i wanted to show the national picture just because we do have some storms that are actually kicking up. tornado warnings down in parts of texas and louisiana. >> this has been going a lot lately and it's because we've got that kind of mix of warm and cold air kind of clashing together. you see that at this time of year. so, you know, you notice in dallas, you see that 66 degrees in new orleans about. >> 84. so it's almost a 20 degree split there. and that's where we start to get all that activity notice in las vegas and phoenix. 93 94 degrees. we are cooler than that in most spots. but hey, bakersfield, 92 for you right now. 89 in fresno, 86 in reading. but you head out towards the coast and obviously things are a lot cooler. los angeles right now

sitting at 65 degrees. it's all about that marine layer today. not just for us. we can see all the way down the coast of california says we zoom in here. we've got some pretty decent clearing with the exception of the north bay, which has really been just cloudy today in most spots, not getting a whole lot of a break there. but san jose is it's 78 degrees right now. 76 in livermore obviously cool in half moon bay out of the coast at 57. we're kind of splitting the difference in some spots like fairfield, but notice and get up to the towards bay. nevada at 72, but santa rosa still just at 61. so that that cloud cover that is going to be moving in again. you can see it already here at the golden gate bridge, starting to get a little more pervasive. so we're in this pattern where it's kind of quiet, but the marine layer just hangs out. comes in, comes out. we're playing again tomorrow. same story am fog pm sun calmer weekend and then cooler times ahead. and that got me thinking about climatology. here now is looking at livermore as an example out of the 15 day so far this month we've had 11 of them be above average in just

4 below average. if we look over the next few days, you know, we're quiet taken into the weekend. this is your saturday. you can see just a few sprinkles, perhaps in in spots like in the sierra. but other than that, we're just really super quiet right now. so many give you a quick look at your seven-day forecast just to show you with the exception of the temperatures going down. a couple of degrees up a couple of degrees until we get to next week around wednesday. we start to cool down. we're just kind of steady as she goes back to you. all right. up next here in napa valley restaurant has been named. >> the most beautiful in all the golden state. we'll tell you which one.
