happening, though. you can see that area of high pressure offshore, that area of low pressure to our east, the pressure difference setting up that wind event for today, the wind out of the north, this area of high pressure wants to stick around. and as a result we will have more sunshine, 80s and 90s inland. we could be tracking some more fog though, as we head toward friday, and possibly probably a better chance as we move into the weekend. here we are for your thursday. we will have lots of sunshine out there and then into friday we'll see a little bit more of an onshore breeze. so with that, some patchy fog for the coastline will cool off the beaches, but the inland spots will continue to warm up. today though. look at this. lots of 70s the warmest locations approaching the 80s. and here is a look ahead. your five day forecast. it is still warmer for your thursday. by friday, warm to hot. the warmest locations close to 90 degrees. we do bring in some cooling out toward the coast, and probably a typical pattern as we head into the weekend. warm inland cool for the coast so it looks like kind of a 2 to 3 day deal with those warming temperatures here in the bay area. but a nice forecast over the next several

weight gain, and high cholesterol may occur. movement dysfunction and restlessness are common side effects. stomach and sleep issues, dizziness, increased appetite, and fatigue are also common. side effects may not appear for several weeks. i didn't have to change my treatment. i just gave it a lift. ask about vraylar and learn how abbvie could help you save.

metro major metropolitan fire departments that is currently testing two different brands of pfas free turnouts. >> so we're putting that data together, and i think that's going to go a long way towards allowing us to get these kind of products developed at scale and eventually approved so that we can equip every fire fighter in san francisco with pfas free gear. >> the city has until 2026 to find an alternative solution to the current firefighting gear. >> transportation officials gathered in the east bay to see what some call the autonomous vehicle of the future. ktvu tom vacar tells us the glide ways glide car is part of a new mass transit system that will soon power up in contra costa county. thank you. >> at san ramon's bishop ranch roadhouse tuesday, the ninth annual redefining mobility summit showed off what it calls the autonomous vehicle of the future and the star of the show. the glide aways, glide car, part

four or baggage or a bike. >> and it takes you to the antioch bart station without ever stopping. always a predictable journey. time >> because building this, even with a dedicated pathway, is very light construction. it can be done very quickly and it can be done far, far cheaper than dedicated rail systems. and in that sense it is superior. it's way, way cheaper than putting in railway tracks, even if it costs $1 billion a mile to build a 28 mile system, that's 28 billion. >> that's just math. our system is going to cost a fraction ten, 20% of that. >> another glide waste project is to set up a system to connect san jose airport to rail transit. tom vacar, ktvu, fox two news. >> people in minnesota now have a much clearer picture of what they're getting into when they buy concert tickets online, and they can thank taylor swift. a new state law requires ticket sellers to show all fees up front. also prevents resellers from distributing more than one copy of a ticket. this comes after thousands trying to buy tickets to swifts eras tour were
