some showers. looks like we're going to see that moving in by tomorrow evening, maybe around the 6:00 hour, we'll start to see some of that wet weather. ridge of high pressure gets out of the way and that sets us up for a real stream of unsettled days because that front will stall out. when it does, we're going to be in a period of seeing a number of disturb ands riding along that front and we're going to be set up for a few days of weather watered. football game, mostly cloudy, kickoff at 1:00. we are not looking at any precipitation at that point. even know we're going to have the clouds, we're going to be at least 10 degrees warmer tomorrow than today. the weather looks like it's going to start to sneak in here probably around the evening hour. in the meantime, mostly cloudy, cool with light wind. 44 degrees the flow. tomorrow, mostly cloudy. by evening, we expect to see

some of the rainfall, 65 degrees and when that front gets out and sticks around for a few days, the disturbance will tick in and that's when we're going to see. a period of your honor settled watered monday, tuesday and wednesday with rain. the good news is, a ridge of high pressure builds in behind all of this and it arrives just in time for thanksgiving day to bring us the sunshine for thanksgiving, a day cooler, though, at 49 degrees but i don't think anybody is going to complain about that. it's going to be dry. anybody heading out to dinner won't have to bring their umbrella. >> it was worth the wait. you made us wait the whole three minutes. a fast-moving fire is tearing through reno, nevada. more than 50 homes have been damaged or destroi.d one firefighter was burned and an elderly man died of a heart attack trike to run. investigators say that the fire probably started when some power lines hit the free.
