Happened around 1 00 this morning. The driver of the redford suv was heading south on northbound 85 when they collided headon with the honda civic at central expressway overpass. Both drivers were killed, as i mentioned. We know the driver of the honda civic was a 35yearold man from american canyon. The suv caught fire on impact. The body of the wrongway driver is so badly disfigured, chp and fire they cant tell if that person was a man or a woman. What do you suspect was going on with the wrongway driver . Its hard to say. Wrongway drivers are typically caused by impairment. It can sometimes be confusion, but based on the time of day, it could have been anything right now. We dont have anything firmly indicating that, but in general, wrongway drivers do tend to be impaired drivers or those who are kind of confused. Reporter chp says at least two other drivers avoided hitting that wrongway driver but their calls to 911 did not arrive until after this accident so again, all northbound lanes of highway 85 shut down here at evelyn. So youll be told to get off at evelyn. Fortunately its early in the morning commute and looking off camera here, doesnt look like theres much of a backup if any. The chp is trying to have all lanes reopened by 6 00 but it could happen sooner. Reporting live here in Mountain View, bob redell, today in the bay. Thanks for the latest there, bob. Lets check in with mike, watching the maps and how this is going to affect your commute. Biggest concern, two people dead after that crash and somebody driving the wrong way on the freeway, that tragedy going on and the reason why 85 is closed. The very practical concern though is how are you going to get through the area. Silicon valley moves smoothly with the light, light traffic flow, starting to see more cars on the roadway and traveling north cupertino, sunnyvale and in to Mountain View, we have the closure at evelyn. Folks may know as the sunnyvale exit taking you over central expressway at the border. If you get off the freeway, youll be there on evelyn, youll take that over toward central expressway via castro and go up shoreline boulevard through Mountain View and passing google and linkedin. The amphitheater and toward 101 gets you on your way. Its a reroute. Allow 15 minutes extra especially if you dont know the area. Use waze, join nbc bay area wazers and share information. The rest of the bay shows a smooth drive. Bob was talking about the hope they could reopen the lanes before 6 00 a. M. And they were making progress from w that scene. Everybodys safe, the concern is watch for flashing lights and do watch where they tell you to get off the freeway. They are getting on to the bay bridge. A live look in oakland its starting to get busy at 5 00, with some Cool Temperatures to start out, after a hot day yesterday. If youre headed out to the fruitvale b. A. R. T. Station, we encourage more people to ride transit, because it is a spare the air alert day. Our temperatures start out in the mid60s, reach into the mid70s at 10 00, and then into the mid 80s by early afternoon. Eventually were hitting 91 in oakland today but our hottest temperatures up to 102 degrees in livermore, antioch and in concord. Well get a look closer at this and whats ahead with some major cooling thats coming up in the microclimate forecast. Thank you very much. Staying on that microclimate weather alert, thousands are about to experience the extreme heat tonight. Big festivals happening in the south bay. Today in the bays kris sanchez is live in downtown san jose and kris, people need to prepare. Reporter yes, you have to be ready if youre headed out to have some fun this weekend. Arena green here across from the s. A. P. Center is all set up for the threeday festival and its supposed to be a lot of fun but also supposed to be about 100 degrees here in san jose today alone. So if youre planning to be outside here or really anywhere around the bay area, youre going to want to make sure that you hydrate beforehand, drink water before you even get out into the heat. If you have kids, you want to make sure that they take ten gulps per 20 minutes of play, thats about five ounces per 20 minutes, if they are outside playing sports. We know some of our sports teams are in full swing. Avoid strenuous activity. Dont exercise outside if you can avoid it, and when you get hot, try to take a break inside, if you dont have ac at home, try to find a library or maybe go to the mall. Check out this graphic on the left the symptoms of heat exhaustion, feeling faint or dizzy, sweating excessively but having zh having skin that feels cold and crampy. If you feel this way you have to get out of the heat, drink some water, take a cold shower, that will help. If you feel the symptoms on the righthand side of your screen, thats heat stroke, you need to call 911, if this is you or anybody that youre with. No sweating, headache, vomiting, or perhaps losing consciousness. Now if you plan to beat the heat, by heading to the beach or going to San Francisco, dont let your guard down because in the city, heat related illness can double during heat waves. Its easy to get numb to it and think eh, its just 90. There are people in georgia who have it worse, but for us in San Francisco we really want to encourage people to take it seriously. Reporter the festival here at arena green across from the s. A. P. Center is to celebrate the s. A. P. Centers 25th anniversary and theyve done it up big, brought Blake Shelton to headline tonight and the event is free so we expect a lot of people are going to show up and the festival runs from 2 00 to 7 00, the hottest hours of the day, so if youre headed out, make sure that you are prepared and that you drink some water, wear your sunscreen and wear light colored clothing. Wed like to you see you back here monday morning. In san jose, kris sanchez, today in the bay. Everyone is excited for friday but it will be a hot on full moon tonight, too, and its the 13th.

Living a middle class lifestyle isnt cheap in many major cities. According to cnbc in San Francisco and new york a family of four has to earn at least 350,000 a year to afford middle class living. The number includes paying into a 401 k , mortgage, car, credit card payments, College Savings and other bills. Costs keep going up but income from middle class earners has stayed flat for years.

Discovery bay eastbound may be affected by a fire off vasco which is moving smoothly through the area but that might be an issue if youre leaving zafrry bay and brentwood area.

Thats standard but got to be hot working overnight tonight. Thats a lot of cars, mike. We are trying to encourage people to take transit or car january pool as its a spare the air alert day. We will have some drifts of smoke and high levels of ozone especially in the inland east bay as well as the south bay. As we go through that commute this morning in brentwood, we have some low 60s to start and then it goes up fairly quickly as we look at our temperature trend jumping into the low 90s by noon, and its going to be a great day to head to the beach and some of our coastal areas today, where it stays much milder, but still quite warm, but nice for some swimming, with some low 80s in santa cruz, eventually reaching the low 90s around downtown santa cruz. Were going to see some upper 90s for san jose, and some highs over 100 degrees for the trivalley, inland east bay, as well as the far north bay. Going into the forecast for this evening for the marlins game and versus the giants, its going to be at about 78 degrees, but keep in mind that sitting out there in the sun thats going to be quite warm but it will feel nicer as we go into the rest of the evening and ive been tracking quite a few storm systems across the pacific northwest. They are keeping that cool air to the north because its being blocked by High Pressure, going on into the end of the weekend, cooler air, more clouds and also a slight chance of rain on monday, especially for the north bay so going from 101 today, 96 tomorrow, 83 on sunday, valleys reaching the mid70s on monday with more clouds and a few spotty showers moving through.

I see a lot of progress out there. Bob redell is following what is going on and what else they have to do. A live look caltrans cruise making quick work of the majority of the cleanup, a ton of debris but look a lot of something on the roadway there, may be some fluid that has to be also absorbed. Well find out where bob and ill show you the workaround for now. As we check out our sevenday forecast, still some dangerous heat for today, but some major cooling heading in for early next week. Well take a closer look at our forecast coming up next. Hey. You must be stevens phone. Now you can know whos on your network and control who shouldnt be, only with xfinity xfi. Simple. Easy.

Today in the bays bob redell is on the scene and bob, you have some updates. Reporter we do, scott and laura. Both vehicles have been removed. Caltrans is trying to do some basic cleanup here on northbound highway 85 at the central expressway overpass here in Mountain View. The expectation is to have all lanes reopened by 6 00 if not sooner. This is the result of a deadly fatal wrongway driver crash that happened around 1 00 this morning involving an suv and honda civic. The driver of a redford suv was headed south on northbound 85 when they collided head on with the driver of the honda civic. Both drivers were killed. We know the driver of the honda civic was a 35yearold man from american canyon. The suv which is registered here in Mountain View it caught fire, that driver was a woman, thats the only information we are getting from chp. Chp does not know yet if she was drunk or impaired when she was heading down the wrong way here on northbound highway 85. Chp says at least two other drivers avoided hitting her as she was headed the wrong way but their calls to 911 did not arrive until after this accident. So again, as you can see back out here live they have fluid they have to clean up, talking about the cal trans workers and debris. Once they get that clear and get the sweeper out here all lanes northbound 85 reopened here. In the meantime youll be detoured at evelyn. Until they get this reopened. Again, estimated time 6 00. Live in Mountain View, bob redell, today in the bay. You think of the caltran workers have to work in such grisly conditions, thank you for that. Mike, people are going to need some workarounds if they dont open it even by qualify. If youre leaving the house after you get karis weather report, and do stick around for that, some major changes for todays temperatures. North 85 currently closed at 101. Youll be forced off at evelyn. Get over to central expressway and take that to shoreline back over to 101, thats the easiest to explain. If youre not familiar with the area thats the easiest to find. You can use that on your map utility and as bob said they hope to have this section north 85 traveling through sunnyvale and in to Mountain View reopened in the next half hour. Right now the deadly crash the scene is being addressed by caltrans and chp all hustling around to clear the debris. The rest of the somebody shows wakeup north 101 and san jose.

Oh things happen on days like today. Sadly today this friday is really rough one for the morning commute. Two Traffic Alerts the first the most concerning, the human impact. We have a double deadly crash in the south bay shutting down highway 85. Video from earlier this morning this happened just after 1 00 in the morning. Person going the wrong way on northbound highway 85, going south and crashed with somebody else. People in both cars as i understand it were killed and the debris at the crash scene all had the investigation going on for hours. We are at the scene, live with bob redell and it does look like theyve been able to remove the vehicles. The final cleanup is continuing at the scene. The flat bed tow truck and two vehicles. The they may be clearing bob from the scene right there. We want to get you back out to first of all let me show you if i can get back to, well i cant get back now. We have to show you the issue in sunnyvale and Mountain View at 85 is closed at evelyn. Ive been telling folks to exit and get on to central expressway and get over toward shoreline. The problem over here is my maps are frozen in mid form because i was tweeting this picture out. Folks, if youre traveling on the east bay this one is for you, this is a bad backup north 880, traveling up toward marina, we have basically no lanes effectively open. I believe theyre allowing traffic through slowly on the shoulder but big rigs have been allowed over on to westbound 580, its going to be a while. There is a box truck, a suburban and a boat with a trailer not connected to anything in the lanes at marina. If you enter the freeway north of davis street youre okay. Coming up through san lorenzo and t Castro Valley y this is a huge problem. There is the standard backup at the bay bridge, but things are pretty predictable over there for the friday, kari, at least thats a little bit lighter on the maze and the approach. Over to you. We are also under a microclimate weather alert, a clear view from our San Bruno Mountain camera, a sunny day also very warm once again. We are going to see some drifts of smoke coming in especially for the north bay. The inland east bay will have it the worst and the south bay, unhealthy air quality due to some far Northern California wildfires, that we hope to see improve over the next couple of days. We look at our temperature trend in martinez were at 62 degrees at 7 00. We go from 62 to 80 at 10 00, and then up to 94 degrees by early this afternoon, making plans to get outside, make sure youre out there early. At 10 00, danville is at 83 degrees, and 88 by lunch time, temperatures in the upper 80s and low 90s but were not done yet. We head through 3 00 up to 102 in danville and concord and livermore. This area may set a new record today for concord and for hayward were going to possibly match the record High Temperature for today, and then for the north bay also really hot but we go into tonight with upper 60s. As we go into the weekend, well be tracking the storm systems moving across the Pacific Midwest right now blocked by High Pressure but as the High Pressure moves out of the way, cooler air moves in. Well see clouds on saturday, especially on sunday, mostly cloudy skies and then a slight chance of rain in the forecast for monday especially for the north bay, kind of looks like it breaks apart for the rest of the bay area but nice to at least see a slight chance of rain in the forecast, going into next week, coming along with some much cooler temperatures, so the inland valleys from 101 today to 75 for the high on monday. Ill have a look more at these drastic changes coming up in the next forecast. Thank you, kari. Parts of southeast spain under water this morning.
