up, but those could be some north winds. so it should be dry as opposed to the chilly foggy breeze we have now moving into san francisco. so we'll see temperatures in san francisco, chances are getting more 70s at least to start the week, then the winds will start picking up towards thursday and friday. and valleys probably looking at some 90s for about two to three days. no upper 90s or 100 degree temperatures, but again, a bit warmer than the weather we saw today. then breezy and dry as we e head towards thursday and friday. >> rob, thanks very much. football is back in the bay area, 49ers and the raiders both in action. one rookie had a dazzling debut. here's your buick sir.
