the crew here came straight to work last night when they heard this -- you can hear the celebrating all over the city. there were people cheering, fireworks were going off, cars were honking, it was a loud party. and true giants style, the team tortured the fans till the end. they had to wait until the bottom of the ninth to know if they were going to the world series. the game was tied till the end when ishikawa hit the home run. fans describe what that magic moment was like. >> the last minute when he hit the home run, it was magnificent. >> it was unbelievable. everybody was out there. we were all high fiving each other. yeah, yeah, exactly, that was it. >> go, giants, world series soon to be winners. >> yes, now it's time for the world series. it is an even year, they did it in 2010, 2012, here we are in 2014, and as expected, they are going to the world series. look at the t-shirt press here,

to stay for the better part of today. scattered showers this afternoon, so get ready for that. just how clear it is outside this morning, clouds will continue to gather, thicken, and lower, eventually letting go of their goods across the north bay in the form of showers. mostly sunny and warm, then our better chance of rain will be monday. low to mid 70s across the south bay, 68 in santa cruz, low to mid 70s on the peninsula. mid 60s along the coast. mid to upper 60s, bodega bay, sausalito, low 70s through the north bay, where we have a chance of a scattered shower today. mid 70s inland. pretty delightful day if you're going to be outside. just not a whole lot of sunshine in the afternoon hours. best chance of showers along the coast and starting to spread inland overnight. notice it's not going to be quite as cool as this morning. 50s to near 60s, instead of some of the 40s we have.

morning, clouds thickening. 4:00, 5:00, some of the showers start to roll into the north bay. you can see that's pretty much where they stay. the rest of us are going to have sprinkles. whether it's high school football, may need an umbrella up north, but that's about it. system gets close, starts falling across at 8:00 when it starts to push showers inland, watch what happens. it's gone. there you go. by 4:00, we're back to mostly sunny conditions. rainfall amounts, tenth to a quarter inch, but mainly across the north bay and some of the higher elevations along the peninsula. so, got a big event, 25,000. i think it's the biggest women's half marathon sunday and it starts at 6:30. 6:00, 58, and if you like cool weather to run in, we're going to warm up to 50 by 9:00. seven-day forecast, slightly warmer saturday and sunday with the extra sunshine. cooler monday with a chance of rain. tuesday, wednesday, thursday.

a warming trend. here's leyla. >> we have a thin out in san jose northbound on highway 101. possibly one lane blocked here, but no delays. traffic is light throughout san jose. once you get up to the split, you might find a bit of slowing around allen rock, but this is where it's quite slow, over the bay bridge. why is that? look at all that red. we don't tend to see it so much each morning, there's construction that wrapped up right as you come off the bridge. they put down some metal plates and as we hear, it's like driving into a wall when you hit those plates. i think some cars are slowing down. once you pass the harrison off-ramp, that's where traffic moves fine. you're not seeing any delays once you pass it. it's all as you approach. be careful, watch out for your tires in the two to three left lanes. katie, eric? >> thank you. 6:20 now.

muscle pain with fever, or tired feeling. common side effects are dizziness, sleepiness, weight gain and swelling of hands, legs and feet. don't drink alcohol while taking lyrica. don't drive or use machinery until you know how lyrica affects you. those who have had a drug or alcohol problem may be more likely to misuse lyrica. i found answers about fibromyalgia. then i found lyrica. ask your doctor about lyrica today.
