Good air quality for most of the bay area improvements from last weeks moderate pockets of air. And temperatures this morning as i mentioned have that cool crisp feel to them especially in the north bay, were starting things off in the 40s in Santa Rosa Petaluma nevado and since elmo 50s for most of the rest of us later today at 70s and 80s for most of our daytime highs nothing wrong with that. I am talking slightly warmer days come tuesday and wednesday. Still ahead robin. I thank you john were heading back to the bay bridge toll plaza where we have a couple of trucks blocking right now this is right at the pay gates westbound as you approach i notice a truck thats been sitting there in that middle lane for quite some time and then i thought it was a stall, but check this out this truck. Its not moving either. So this may be a crash. I dont know whats going on, but the details are not coming across the chp wires just yet. But they are blocking a lot of started going around so expect a minor delay at the bay bridge toll plaza especially in those carpool lanes europe to 17 minutes now its very busy on the suspension as well coming off approaching fremont street but ill be watching those trucks waiting for that to clear for you picking up on highway 4. 20 minutes antioch to concord the minutes looking good the maybe a little sluggish through hayward 24 minutes from to 38 off to 2. 37 will check more bridges coming up back to you. All right, thank you very much robin. 7 02 we are now just 15 days away from the november election and today dont forget is the very last day to register to vote here in california he can get it done online or by mail kron fours will tran is in san mateo with more on the deadline. Well. The deadline is midnight tonight if you want to vote by mail in ballot. And heres my mail in ballot you can see my signature right here if you want to do it you have to do it online by midnight if you happen to be at the post office or the dmv you to do it by paper registration so long as its postmarked lets face it a lot of people. Theyre doing it by mail invalid because theyre free to the long lines covid19 and his face it its so much easier. I started doing this last election. What was i waiting for this is such an easy way to do it. They are processing it right behind me at the registrar of voters in San Mateo County theyre not counting. The votes, but they are opening up the ama loaves and they are verifying who you are which is why they need this time we are 15 days out and thats why theyre telling people do it today if you cant do it online or at the dmv you can still do it in person on the day of the election. But then you have to wait in line you have to fill out all the forms they have to verify who you are and that stake so little bit of time so try to do it now get it done you can polly knock it out over the couple of minutes or so you need a drivers license you need to be at least 18 years old or Social Security number you have to be a citizen. The United States and you can not be imprisoned, they did stipulate that is one of the requirements you cant be in prison to vote. But a lot of people get this they are choosing the way of the mail in ballots with millions of people already turning it in and all smiles. So much is on the ballot this time this is my has our ability areas on the ballot. Health care is on the ballot. The economy is on the ballot race and ability to tell them in a country where we can be ive been in all included is on about i mean normally in the past have been a little more comfortable with mailing bed.

And you can track your ballot so i plan to drop in my ballot today at a mailbox and you can track it all the way through so far and take a look at your screen. So far in our state 3 million mail in ballots have already returned among them 1. 7 of them are registered democrats about 680 of those 3 million ballots that have come back they are registered republicans and 635,000 are considered independent so get it in there. If you can you can easily even do it at the registrar of voters just do it by paper ballot, the bottom line is rock the vote is probably the most important election of our lifetime. Get it done make sure and i did this last time i got sent back to me i. You know use me as a guinea pig last time i forgot to sign it make sure you sign it before you drop it off back to you. Yeah, very i dont want to be im missing out on that thank you very much like the most simple thing and its the thing most people forget and theres another simple thing that is confusing a lot of people and that is. What if you get more than one ballot. Most people dont but in some cases, voters receive a duplicate ballot in the mail and theyre thinking what do i do. Well when Santa Clara County voter is in those shoes. He got 2 ballots any has a lot of questions. Anything is a sony got to do get better my life just got lot. The other thing is in the in next over and Facebook Accounts people talking about not getting the benefits. So you know all this leads to a lot of confusion on the one hand people are not getting the ballots and on the other hand youre getting do to get some this is confusing rated least one i should use actually willing to use the one that doing is the second one to assemble so many open questions actually kron 4 can answer all those questions if you go to our website get that more the answer is. Used the most recent ballot for was to out ballots and in the second one and then destroy the first one rip it up or take it to the polling place and have them dispose of it for you.

Most of us though are looking at skies like you are in to iran which is nice blue conditions right overhead of you as far as winds go this morning, its been nice and calm as we will remain for much of the day today that does take a turn into the evening tonight has wind speeds do gradually pick up. Watches futurecast advances here and by the evening tonight still relatively calm to start but winds do pick up into early tomorrow morning and by the start of the day sonoma atlas peak vacaville in calistoga among those areas that will be on the wind year sties side on into your tuesday windy enough that paired with still existing dry conditions. We do have fire weather watches taking effect tonight lasting through 08 00am on wednesday. Highest a fire danger not really comparable with last week when it was so hot so dry and so windy. But we could see peak wind gusts over mountain tops up to 40 Miles Per Hour that means mountainous areas are in sonoma napa and Solano County subject to that height and fire danger and on top of that we do have an advance in Drought Conditions across the bay area to extreme drought having returned. After such a dry summer season. Less than adequate rainfall in the north bay this past winter season, portions of napa sonoma and solano counties. Now in that extreme category 4 drought. As for temperatures today will be in the 60s and 70s at the coast, a comfortable one, i know i just talked about how dry it is how we still do have fire danger. But conditions are overall improved from where they happen and thats what well focus on today looking at those improvements rather than the heat that we had last week 80s for your highs in the south bay of san Jose Milpitas in santa clara, 82 degrees east bay temperatures in the 70s to 80s for high temperatures, dublin. Pleasanton and livermore 88 each while danville walnut creek in conquered egypt to 89 oakland Berkeley Richmond in the 70s while 80s to only to 90s on the map today. Thats for fairfield and vacaville at 91 to 90 degrees. Napa 85 sonoma benicia and pittsburgh. Czech 88. Santa rosa petaluma 84 today. Heres a look ahead at your next 7 days today tomorrow and wednesday really doesnt change too much. We do see winds picking up into early tomorrow morning in that does result in height and fire danger from especially tuesday early wednesday. After that forecast only gets better as daytime highs fall further into the 70s for warmest temperatures by friday saturday and sunday those are for inland areas low 70s right along the bay. So there is a much more falllike feel ahead of us as for today tomorrow and wednesday enjoy the less hot weather that we have to start this week. Robin ill do just that thank you john we do not enjoy hot spots not on the freeways and we have to get to work. And thats what we have in San Francisco. Its an overturned and its blocking 2 lanes its northbound one oh one, just as you approach 3rd street in San Francisco, one of the cars involved here flipped over on its roof, the 2 left lanes are blocked so youre backed up about a mile there and then up ahead just getting word of another accident at cesar chavez so 2 separate problems on one oh one equals a lot of slow traffic as you work your way through San Franciscos all be watching that.
