The last transit of Venus in this century will happen tomorrow, Jun 5th, 2012. Residents of San Francisco Bay Area will be able to see it from around 3PM till sunset.
Please do remember to use adequate eye protection: eclipse shades or #14 welding glass. If you don't have eye protection you can see live webcast from Mauna Kea in Hawaii with expert commentary brought to you by the team of NASA EDGE: http://sunearthday.nasa.gov/2012/transit/webcast.php
