And then outside in San Francisco, shaping up to be shally beautiful but i wanted to you how much rain we measured. This is the first time weve had measurable rain since may 26th. Well santa rosa got about a tenth of an inch of rain. Less in brentwood and San Francisco, about. 7 and berkeley hills. 3 and concord about. 10 and los gatos about a quarter inch and half an inch for mt. Diablo and then in livermore at about a tenth of an inch. More in Half Moon Bay and in san jose a tenth of an inch. So we normally dont get a whole lot of rain in the month of september so it is nice to see. Into the rest of the afternoon, santa teresa will see temperatures cooler than normal. We should be hitting the low 80s but nowhere near there for downtown san jose. Reaching 74 degrees. 77 in gilroy. For the east bay reaching into the mid70s today.

And then over to mike, still tracking the changes for the traffic alert. That is right. Unfortunately not much of a change except 680 is more crowded now. I think some folks held off in the morning thinking the lanes must be clear by now but they are not so we are jammed up from mission boulevard all the way up 680, all the way up to vargas. That fuel spill still blocks the right lanes and we have no update from which chp hopes to reopen or when they think they will reopen. Were still seeing slowing off niles canyon roadway and that could be a huge issue as the morning continues into the afternoon where we typically see this section start to build getting in toward the trivalley. As early as 2 00 for slowing on some days so well watch this build. This may again send more folks up north, 880 and through Castro Valley where it is still slow. Late for the backup but folks did take the reroute to avoid the blackup and north 680 closed for four miles of backup approaching vargas. Back to you. Thank you.
