potential to 35 miles an hour. 60 by noon. more clouds around this morning. a little more sun this afternoon. clouds east of us, especially east of the bay may not break till tonight. we need them to break because we have a partial solar eclipse. if you want to see this, it starts in washington at 5:52. it maxes out at 6:17. we're fighting a couple of things. a, the clouds which hopefully will be gone by then in most areas. we're also fighting the sunset. sunset 16:17. if you -- is 6:17. if you want to see t i urge you to get out there. but don't look at it directly. make a box, a pin hole at one end and a white piece of paper. that's all you need. easy to make and much safer than looking at t. gusts 25 to 30 right now. we've seen gusts this morning in the 30 to 35 range. that will be the case through midday. temperatures right now low to mid-50s. look at the chill in the mountains. in the 30s there with davis at 34 and oakland in garrett
