SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) — After heavy rain to start the week, we are looking at a few dry days ahead of us.

Highs on Tuesday will rise to the 60s under gradually clearing conditions after an overcast start and a few lingering misty spots.

Showers will likely return towards Thursday early in the day, but in the meantime, expect plenty of sunshine and a comfortably cool next few days. 

Sunrise in San Francisco is at 6:54 a.m. Sunset is at 4:56 p.m.

Later, Anthony G. Pappalardo draws a convincing parallel between skating in the 1990s at Embarcadero and music at New York’s CBGB in the late ’70s. “Like CBGB,” Pappalardo points out, “a creative scene grew from skateboarding, leading to new brands, artists, videographers and, of course, pros.”

It’s the small details, though, that truly elevate Epicenter. The photo book includes fun, fold-out spreads. The essay book includes architectural blueprints of Embarcadero Plaza. The set comes with a gigantic poster featuring scores of tiny snapshots of Rosenberg’s skate video footage from the era. There’s even an art print of some of Embarcadero’s long lost ledges, painted by Eric Merrell. The love and reverence Rosenberg holds for Embarcadero is reflected in every aspect of the set.

Epicenter is also a pertinent reminder of how quickly and often San Francisco transforms itself. The set asks the reader to appreciate their favorite features of the city every day that they still exist. A Thrasher interview quote by Greg S. Carrol from 1999 sums it up:

“There could never be another Embarcadero. Some of us spent hundreds of hours at Embarco. This just goes to show every one of you — don’t take anything for granted, whether it’s something as simple as brushing your teeth or something as fun as skating your favorite spot with your best friends, because someday it might be gone.”

‘Epicenter’ by Jacob Rosenberg is available for preorder now. An accompanying exhibition opens at GCS Agency (201 Jackson St, San Francisco) on Nov. 21, with book signings on Nov. 22 and 23.
