12:50 pm
good. now one of the other bonuses of rain here except, you know, in addition to just being beneficial to get this time of year is that by the time we get to saturday when a knock those allergies down, like me, you've been dealing with that. that should help out a little bit. but the temperatures will be chilly to get that benefit. notice inland spots only getting up to about 60 degrees on saturday. so sunday will be sunny and dry. a better day for your outdoor activities. but it will be a cool day. so just keep that in mind. we will start to warm up by midweek next week. it looks like we'll have some really nice weather in our hands once again. all right. thank you. now to bay area sports as one of the biggest regular season matches on the mls calendar every year for soccer fans, the earthquakes or host a rival la fc in the kelly this weekend. kron 4 sports reporter kate rooney spoke with the coach. this saturday. the stands behind me here at levi stadium will be filled not with football fans, but with football fans as the california classic overturns to santa clara.
