Really thick and its becoming dangerous not only the visibility, but sue tells me black ice in the north bay. Heres a look at what is going on down in the south bay and you can barely see 87 right near the shank tank and cant see minetta San Jose International and now this fog starting to go up the east side of the bay also and it stretches almost 100 miles from santa rosa to san jose d and it will continue through the south during the morning commute where it will remain during the entire commute. After 9 00, it will start to fade away. Highway 116 is what sue said. 58 at Half Moon Bay and everybody else from 62 in San Francisco to 68 in santa rosa. Temperatures anywhere from 2 to 9 degrees warmer than average today. All right. Lets get some news and send it back to, lets send it to reggie. Most of us in the bay area are now in the purple tier which means we have a nightly curfew. We cant go inside gyms or movie theaters and dining is outdoor only. Yet, it could actually get more restrictive. The governor is hinting of another lockdown. And one of the key indicators hes looking at the shrinking number of icu beds. With more on that, we goe to ab7 News Reporter Amy Hollyfield in walnut creek. Amy . Reggie, he is saying we all need to stay home so icu beds dont fill up. Heres the numbers Governor Newsom is tracking. 75 of californias icu beds are now occupied with the state setting records two days in a row. More than 1,800 people are in intensive care. The governors worried that icus could be overflowing in the next couple of weeks. So, he is considering a stayathome order. It will require and we are assessing this in realtime over the next day or two to make determinations of deep purple moves in those purple tiered status that is more equivalent, more in line with the stayathome order that folks were familiar with in the beginning of this year. Now, the governor typically mentions that he is thinking about Something Like issuing a curfew before he does it. So, it does seem likely that he will be issuing this order now that he has mentioned it. He hasnt said when he will decide or what it would look like but the last stayathome order back in march stated that we should only leave our homes for Central Business like the Grocery Store or if youre an essential worker or for exercise. Live in walnut creek, Amy Hollyfield. Perfect segue to marin county where everyone working out at this particular gym has to watch the clock because this is the only county in the red tier which means indoor workouts are still allowed but only have 10 capacity. This gym tells us demand is high. As the clock counts down, the workouts speed up every hour all the customers have to leave so new ones can come in. We spoke with the owner of a coffee shop who is not letting customers dine in, even though the guidelines allow it. I would never allow a customer to even sit here. If im going to purchase more, would you just close your eyes one side and open the other side. No can do. Im doing this not just because for me and you, but for our community as a whole. Marin county reported nearly 60 new cases sunday. The county may still be in the red tier because it tests twice as many people as the state average.

They went last month and their daughter said they were wary about the virus and wanted to use airfare credits that were about to expire. Their trip postponed two or three times when all of this started and they didnt want to lose the money so they decided to go this time. The couple wore goggles, masks, face shields while sight seeing and eating at restaurants and still they got sick. About a week into their vacation. Jose was flown back to the u. S.

Be careful, that could be an issue throughout the morning commute. Temperatures running from 36 in munt e Mountain View to 45 in san jose. Head up the east bay shore and some fog is starting to sneak up to Castro Valley where it is 37 and most temperatures here in the mid 40s. Lets take a look else where and you can see the thick fog on the peninsula and all the way up to the north bay santa rosa. 31 degrees and fog in the air. Thats why you have black ice. 33 in pleasanton from one of the cooler spots and the east bay and look at blush this morning. Got a new name on twitter.

Welcome back. About 6 42 on this tuesday. You can see a touch of haze in the air after the fog fades at noon and near 60 for the rest of us. 55 at the coast at 4 00 and 42 for our bay and inland neighborhoods and now through the tenth of this month our earliest sunset 4 50 in the afternoon.

Were getting a better idea of when we will get the covid19 vaccine here in california and how much well be getting. Abc7 News Reporter Julian Glover with more details on this. Good morning, julian. Hi, good morning, kumasi. Governor gavin newsom said in a News Conference yesterday that the state of california will be receiving 327,000 doses of the Pfizer Vaccine in just the next few weeks at a ucsf doctor we spoke with called those developments breathtaking. We expect to learn more details about the states Distribution Plan for the first phase of vaccines in the next few days outlining who will get vaccinated first. Keep in mind the Pfizer Vaccine delivers two doses and the second dose will be available within three weeks of the distribution of the first dose. Meaning the first round of vaccinations in california could be completed by early january. The vaccines implementation will happen at the speed of trust and that is part of the reason why we have built a set of committees. We have to start with Health Care Workers and probably people in nursing homes. And then ultimately we will get to people over 65, people with preexisting conditions. Moderna is also on track, as kumasi mentioned, to produce 20 million doses for the entire country and also by the end december it applied for federal emergency authorization. The first round of vaccinations could be completed here in the state of california by early january.
