A very good wednesday morning to you. Thank you for joining us. Were halfway there through the workweek, the day before thanksgiving. Mike has a look at the commute. First that forecast. Meteorologist kari hall has been tracking that. How is it looking, kari . It looks pretty good. We are all quiet across the bay area. We started out with Cool Temperatures and patches of fog particularly in the north bay. A live look in dublin, it will be cooler but comfortable for the middle of the day. We do have some cool mornings ahead. The dry weather does continue. Well talk about that in the forecast coming up. Mike, how is it looking driving through some of those foggy areas . Yes, folks might have trouble looking around them. The bay bridge for a reference, very light traffic flow. The note as we look at the north bay 29 to highway 1 up to healdsbu healdsburg, thats that warm amber blob where the fog has registered. Lower visibility there. Really no slowing on this map. Back to you. President elect joe biden is preparing to receive his first classified intelligence briefing. He will dmrieliver a message to. This, of course, is following his exclusive oneonone sitdown with lester holt. Today in the bays tracie potts has the latest. The president said a lot but the one thing i keep hearing over and over again when he says america is back. Reporter exactly. America is back. He was talking about Foreign Policy and this team of diplomats hes put together to try to reshape the relationships we have with countries all over the world, marcus, and that may come up today in his thanksgiving message. President elect biden expected to speak to america. We are told about the sacrifices people have made especially with covid and so many other things going on. So many things came up in the interview about policy changes he wants to make on climate, get kids back in school, about a number of things including National Security and how he believes the United States should be relating with leaders around the world especially our allies. Ive spoken with over 20 World Leaders and they all are literally very pleased and excited america will reassert its role in the world and be a coalition builder. Reporter meantime President Trump is talking about the stock market. Did you see the numbers yesterday . The dow exceeding 30,000. President trump pretty excited about that and taking credit for it. Never been broken, that number. Thats a sacred number, 30,000. Nobody thought they would ever see it.

He is now the first president ial candidate to ever receive more than 80 million votes and his lead is likely to increase in the coming days with 2. 5 million ballots still to be counted. President trumps nearly 74 million are the second highest amount in u. S. History. Its 5 04. The cdc may be ready to cut down the recommended 14day selfquarantine. It comes with the u. S. Seeing its highest death rate in months. There have been 12. 5 million confirmed cases. California is seeing record numbers. The state confirmed 15,000 with hospitalizations up more than 80 over the past two weeks. At the same time the cdc is finalizing plans to shorten the quarantine for possible exposure. It may become ten days or a week due to better testing and the fact symptoms come on within four to five days of exposure. Four more counties are in the purple tier bringing the total to 45 counties. San francisco, san mateo and marin are all still in the red tiers. San Francisco Health leaders are anticipating a move into the purple tier and may reach that threshold by sunday. A slide would mean more rollbacks following the statewide curfew. That would mean sf restaurants would have to shut down at 10 00 p. M. For so many families making it in the bay involves serious challenges, demand is said to be skyrocketing due to the pandemic. And it is really hitting home as we approach tomorrows holiday. Bob redell joins us live in oakland where one food bank is giving out meals later this morning. Good morning, bob. Reporter the Alameda County food bank will distribute around 1,000 meals at this location here in oakland in whats been described as an emergency distribution. To give you a sense how many more people are needing food this year this food bank has added 28 Distribution Sites since the pandemic began.

Once that clears out, we will have a very pleasant day. Highs reaching into the low 60s and it will be slightly cooler than yesterday. Well talk about a few changes. Mike, are you seeing any changes for the morning commute . A change from normal. Its mostly green. A little bit of slowing. The fog will show up as orange yellow.

Looking at our old studios in 1999 when the dow first crossed 10,000. There was worry the technology on wall street would not be able to handle a fivedigit number but everything turned out just fine. Today it will start at 30,046. Investors pleased with the president ial transition under way and janet yellen chosen as the next treasury secretary. President trump congratulated everyone on the stock market and said the number 30,000 was, in his words, sacred. In truth there is nothing special or magical other than its a nice big, round number, like a tenyear wedding anniversary or centennial. Now the president does like to take credit and while you can argue, its doubled since he was first elected president. You know what else is on its way up, home prices. Caseshiller says prices rose in nearly every market they measure, nearly 7 . Phoenix, seattle and san diego led the way. Houses in the San Francisco metropolitan statistical area rose 6 for that year. Notice i didnt say the San Francisco bay area. Caseshiller defines it the way the American Census does.

It should be nice across the bay area the next couple of days, kari . Nice and cool. Cool this morning, a look at where we are as people are getting up and heading out the door. Napa, its 36 degrees. Mostly upper 40s and low 50s for most of the rest of the bay area. If youre going to be heading out to the park today getting some sunshine and enjoying the time with the kids out of school, in walnut creek well start out with upper 40s but youll need the jacket throughout the day even when the sun breaks out and well see our temperatures getting milder into the afternoon reaching into the low 60s. Along the coastline we are going to see some mostly cloudy skies early this morning. Then sunshine the rest of the bay. Well reach into the upper 50s here. A headsup, a High Surf Advisory in effect for all of the coastline and we could have some pretty big breakers today. Good for the surfers but for regular people its going to be very dangerous to be near the coastline today. We could see some breakers up to 24 feet today and coming in every 17 to 19 seconds so watch out for that. A lot of our northwest facing beaches will have the highest waves. And thats all because were going to see the winds picking up today. At times our winds gusting up to 25 Miles Per Hour along the coastline in San Francisco. Tomorrow its going to be even windier, so when you factor in the fact well only make it into the 60s and those winds will at times gust up to 30 Miles Per Hour, going to make it feel a lot cooler. If youre planning on having thanksgiving outside youll want to hold on to that tablecloth because well have gusty winds. Antioch will see temperatures reaching into the mid60s during the middle of the day tomorrow. Mike, how is it looking right now as a lot of people are heading out the door . Folks are able to get where theyre going because of lighter traffic. In the south bay, 680 atteberyessa, a new crash reported.

San francisco is tightly holding on to its red tier status but expects to possibly be added to the purple tier by the end of this week.

President elect joe biden will finally get access to the president s top briefings. Scott mcgrew, our current president doesnt always Pay Attention to it. The president ial Daily Briefing can be given verbally, through a book. President obama used an ipad. You are right. Nbc has in the past reported President Trump has not always taken his Daily Briefing. Now the transition is officially under way its been recognized by the General Services administration, under way in that sense. Biden can finally get access to the president ial Daily Briefing. Do it on a regular basis. Since the certification or what you call theyve been very forthcoming offering all access and were going to be starting those on a regular basis. Biden says he wants to be up to speed on day one and knowing whats going on with our military and our enemies is critical to that. Its easy to forget biden was, until yesterday, technically an unemployed civilian with no access to secrets. Vice president elect Kamala Harris knew more than he did because as senator she sits on the Senate Intelligence committee but it would have been illegal for her to pass the secrets on to joe biden. Is your rounding himself with experienced people who have been in government before. We noted janet yellen yesterday. You saw what that announcement did to the stock market and former secretary of state john kerry as the new head of the fight against climate change. President elect biden says that will be a cabinet level position. Now what is and is not cabinet level is up to the individual president s. There are specific cabinet positions like secretary of defense. But kerrys position will not be one of those. So that could change. America has added cabinet members. Secretary of homeland security, for instance, after the 9 11 attacks. President trump has been tweeting a lot particularly things on newsmax, much disprovable through a simple google search.
