Lots of wind lots of rain and colder temperatures all have all those details. Coming up in my next full head and ill have that about 10 to 15 minutes for now though lets hit the roads, the dry roads for today and say good morning to robin good morning. Rebecca, its always good to have you here in the studio with us lets head over to the bay bridge were checking the drive into San Francisco. Its packed its not Getting Better at least not right now nothing in the way to cause us and traffic is this. The typical crowd here rolling into San Francisco.

Were averaging 19 minutes which is crowded slow not so bad in the out for you west of Treasure Island as well were checking in on the e sure thats one of your approach is 24 minutes from crockett to oakland, 24 looks good. So no problems for lafayette aranda the caldecott tunnel to the oakland side. 5. 80 and the nimitz both very nice 5. 80 had a number of problems but theyre gone now, so both under 15 minutes from to 38 to downtown oakland. Well check more drive times coming up back to you thanks a lot robin is just the shot in the arm the nation has been waiting for yeah moderna the drug manufacturer says that its covid19 vaccine that its been. In the middle of trials with is now 95 effective they say which would make it the second vaccine in the u. S. To have a success rate. Over 90 . And we have Infectious Disease expert doctor Anthony Fauci calling this great news very promising course all this has to be validated kuzs data that the company is providing so the fda is going to do its own validation of it, we could have a vaccine at least in small numbers small quantities by ended december by the end of december because theres the pfizer vaccine. That they announced last week they thought was 90 effective so once they get the emergency authorization by the fda which could come by the end of this month, then wed be on our way to that shot in the arm so that will help stem the tide curve bend the curve because we new cases of coronavirus across the country have been skyrocketing here last few 100,000 plus cases daily on the rise, 70,000 people in the hospital one day. You can see on the increase in hospitalizations nationwide. 240,000 people have now died in the United States and if you look at the bay area along we know numbers have been rising as well which has prompted local Health Officials to start cutting back on the reopening weve got salon Contra Costa County downgraded Sonoma County the only county in purple right now which is the worst but looks like napa and Solano County are going to join that list pretty right and when you go to the purple tier which is the worst that means you really have to roll back and what you can do to try to stop the spread will tran is in Solano County with the details of what their plan is there well good morning. Their plan is to not a lot of people inside the restaurant, so the gym they trying to corral covid19 as it got out of hand over the past several weeks which is why theyre not even waiting james in duryea for the state which they usually decide on tuesdays which tier county should be theyre going to go ahead and do it today purple tier, the most restrictive tier as far as covid19 cases because they have seen an explosion and the number of cases over the past several weeks with private social gathering, they say that seems to be the number one reason why they have seen the increase from 50 at one point even 80 cases on one particular day theyre jumping off point its around 30 cases so when you go from 30 to about 80. Obviously it is out of hand for Solano County which is why they are restricting access to so many things including movie theaters. Because its now in the purple tier, the most restrictive tier of the state will step in and monitor the situation for 3 weeks and even if it gets better james and area that also means that they will go back to the red tier and thats the best Case Scenario and even that is a pretty restrictive tier. What does that mean as far as even going into the stores you talked about costco requiring masks for everybody, they dont care if you have a medical call it medical condition you have to wear a mask as far as the stores are concerned they will limit the amount of people at any given time just like what we saw earlier this year they will keep you out outside at the door count how many people are inside and only when people walk out and they will allow you in so they can create that social distance back to you. All right, thank you very much well and in napa county. Theyre worried. Theyre about the spread of covid as well and so they are increasing testing, making it free and widely available now. And you can see where on your screen in calistoga theyve got mobile Testing Available by appointment today and tomorrow at the calistoga fairgrounds and then you get testing as well and at the napa county expo weve got all this information on our website at kron 4 dot com. The question is do you have covid or is it just the regular flu and that can be confusing right now doctor stay. Its difficult to tell the difference and thats why they are saying that you could get tested for both if youre not sure some of the sites that i mentioned like the Santa Clara County site. Theyre offering free testing for the regular flu as well. You can check online at kron 4 dot the Santa Clara Valley Medical Center clinics they offer testing for both in some cases you need appointments be can make them up to 5 days in advance to go to kron 4 dot com. Well happening tomorrow Contra Costa County will be for turkey are testing before turkey campaign. Theyre going to hold that from 11 in the morning till noon in the parking lot in front of the Contra Costa Public Health Clinic Services building is the sight you dont have turkey with your relatives but if you insist rights everybody should get tested should. Yeah before everybody gets together and so thats what theyre encouraging and thats what theyre hoping to see is this caravan of people that are are going to be getting getting tested beforehand and again thats the hope obviously preferably they want you to stay home if youre going to get together at least everybody get tested so you have some peace of mind. Also happening tomorrow in Contra Costa County we have the board of supervisors considering extending an order to stop evictions for business owners.

But this takes it one step further as coronavirus cases continue to spike across the country. The cdc does not recommend face shields as a substitute for a mask, but if you cant wear a mask for medical reasons then this is your best option make sure the face shield covers your entire face in your chun earlier we heard from doctor said applauded costco for taking these extra mers measures but how do people here shoppers feel about it lets take a listen. I think its a good idea people should be looking out for each other and this small sacrifices really are that big of a deal at all. Everybody she were shield. One rule for everybody. Well obviously those people didnt have medical issues but well have to catch up with people who do another big retailers also changing its policy walmart is starting to limit capacity to 20 . Walmart started doing that back in may then as cases started decline, they stopped counting customers at the door but as the second wave begins they will start doing it again this is we head into holiday season.

Some rainfall around the bay area for now though it doesnt look like were going to have a storm system any time soon because its so gorgeous outside right now look at all that sunshine here the star cameron timber on overlooking a mostly clear condition so clear that you can make out the Golden Gate Bridge towers there. In the back of your screen so just beautiful outside however, it is cold because so were definitely still seeing temperatures in the 40s and 50s but so were definitely seeing more 50s and 40s now so things are beginning to slowly change, well still need a jacket or sweater as you make your way out of the house this morning. Radar were nothing in the way of rain at all no wet weather its very dry around the bay area. And its really happening north of us right now were parts of washington and parts of the organ like portland. Getting some of that a storm system that will be getting just not quite yet until about tomorrow morning that some were showing future cast for this line of rain the storm system thats coming out of the Pacific Northwest heading straight to our direction so were going to need the umbrellas and the jackets tomorrow morning because it could make your morning commute a little bit slick on the roadways. So were going to see that rainfall throughout the entire day tomorrow on and off and even into wednesday, the showers will continue. And were also going to see a possibility of some snow in the sierras. Definitely colder conditions that were going to be seeing across the board here but by the time we get to thursday, it looks will be mostly dry for your thursday, so that is the good news, its going to also be very windy with the storm system in fact youre going to really start to see the winds kick up a late tonight we could see anywhere from 20 to 25 Miles Per Hour wind gusts even getting up to that 30 to 35 mile an hour mark as well like theyre in San Francisco were going to see it to last through early tomorrow morning as the storm system approaches the bay area and then were going to see a breezy conditions throughout the entire day tomorrow into wednesday. So just be prepared with that but today though its going to be beautiful so take note of that and take advantage of the outdoors because were going to be in the 70s that you can see inland 70s around the bay and then upper 60s at the coast before we get some of this rain and colder conditions. Then whats the rest of the week and a hold and next weekend. Ill have all those details coming up a little bit later, robin sounds good. Thank you. Rebecca were checking in on the drive across the san mateo bridge and its standing out so were already seeing an improvement here. 4 westbound 92, not as thick as it was about an hour ago so only 13 minutes from the nimitz across 92 and over to the bayshore freeway here at the bay bridge toll plaza. Yeah, we still have a full house cash lanes fast track lanes all stacked up, but at least its quiet. We know that this is the norm, but we dont want anything extra right so busy off and on from west grand to the bottom of the maze 15 minutes. Thats not bad to make it into San Francisco thats considered a good average were checking the south bay this time around for your commute out of san jose 80 north is looking good. I dont see any problems for north one oh one from san jose to menlo park and even to 80 is wide open under 15 minutes heading north from san jose to cupertino back to you. In the buzz the raiders and niners are moving in totally opposite directions while San Francisco was losing its 3rd game in a row, las vegas was winning its 3rd straight. The raiders ran roughshod over the broncos on both sides of the ball, the offense getting 4 touchdowns the defense forcing 5 turnovers in the end the raiders and they are as the broncos to the tune of 37 to 12 why they needed to get ugly with a clean win like that i dont know, but push came to punch in the 4th quarter. First it was shutting then a full on swing and raiders quarterback Isaiah Johnson and broncos receiver tim patrick were both ejected for fighting. The fortyniners continue to fight a losing battle all those injuries and they set for another insulting defeat. The saints beat them 27 to 13 hard to win when you have so many battle wounds and so many turnovers. Those turnovers what killed us, you know i think we had 2 interceptions in the red zone. You know, and i know special teams and has to be better than as far as the turnover standpoint, and i think 3 times we get up the border for defense inside the 20 want to say was from will power returns and then long kickoff return. Im not close enough. The niners were too far gone for hail mary to help but it wasnt too late for the cardinals but with 3 guys on aga happens it would take a miracle to make that catch. Well as white be all yeah the cardinals trailing the bills by for kyler murray launches a pass this sales 43 hearing a bulls to the receiver happens is surrounded by a sea of defender somehow emerges from that pile of bodies with the ball. And arizona gets us 32 just 30 when its the catch of the year and the play of the season and is shook up the standings into division, wow. Miracles do happen. Heres what you need to know about the masters tiger put the ball in the water 3 times and then put the jacket on somebody else. Dustin johnson became the first number one player in the world to win the masters since tiger did in 2002 all that was missing was the roar of the crowd since there are no fans when he walked up to the 18th fairway we had a fiveshot lead says county where do stand and that can he was so focused that he had no idea, im sure that his caddie said bro youre about to win because theyre brothers that it anyway they all got cheered up and everything and dustin says it winning the jacket has been his life long dream meantime, tiger was living his Worst Nightmare shooting at 10 on the 12th hole which is a par 3. Shelley live. It looked reliving yes so the first one goes in the water drops it winds up again in the drink. So mad that he thought hose his wedge then hes out of the water. But hes into the sand. And so then he has to hit out of the sand. And then you know you get from the bunker. A bag into the water i can win. Then finally he gets to the green and misses the putt. And then. Yeah 10 yeah they finally make the putt pot tiger has never before in his career james had to write down to 10 i had to write down to 10 million that dont like you and me he birdied 5 out of the next 6 holes. And he finished one under but still 19 back from the winner. That was a 10 stroke par threes. Yes, like how and national and tiger that can happen and it can happen anywhere so basically what im hearing is that i knew and just as good. Tiger woods. So youre saying theres a chance a chance that ive done 10 strokes under par 3 many aside this is what fuels people like you to think anything can happen but but dustin for his life has dream and to come in second last year to tiger and then have tiger turned the tables and put the jacket on that did catch when his brother gave a hug them, right size to brothers yesterday said the 2 of them said somebody made a snide comment when he caddying for his brother there like does dumb and dumber like because you never want family to be in business with and just how is it going to go you have a caddy before and now look at him, look at them now work down so youre saying theres a chance were right back thats the buzz. And 24 the pandemic fundamentally change the way we work and socialize and although a vaccine looks like its on the horizon. Even if its successful a lot of people may want to continue working from home once the pandemic ends weve got steve sub rocket with the story. When the pandemic first began officers like this emptied out people were told they had to work from home, but after 9 months of doing that a lot of folks are now saying hey i never want to come back to the office again. When working from the office ended las martins was apprehensive that that is going to be hard not seeing my coworkers and you know sharing idea but Remote Working platforms allowed us to keep sharing ideas and staying in contact with coworkers a recent survey by cisco says 87 of Remote Workers like working from home and want the option to keep doing so several major corporations are offering employees the ability to work at home permanently including zillow most of the impact that weve seen has been positive a study by robert half recruiting agency indicate 61 of companies now advertising fully remote jobs. I think this is the new norcal. The data shows that reason i b m study says well more than half the people would like to continue Remote Working 75 of them thought that going into the office now and again would be helpful that i people need a change of venue after a sure is nice to come home, some new and refreshing you dont really get that if you work from home all day every day. Though some companies will give up their pricey real estate, many firms believe that some sort of Office Environment will continue to be necessary. We believe that even if people are working from home. Its going to be important that they have our offices to come together collaborate thing kept time would be good. Like taking still have the social interaction at work. But i can also have some time that i can do my own wok from home with my time management which means down the road companies will need to support and embrace hybrid work environment, even as Remote Working continues to grow. The step was working from home. Week started in the studio long time ago they spent too much money on this its fancy we got a lot of we do all kinds of covid testing so were not going to work now i wonder if like. Sales sport coats are going to go way i just need the jackets now that youre zooming nobody, yeah pants are just saying everybody is doing and james so the world you at the top of all right now turn to that as i would if away with it by.

Coming up a little bit later lets hit the roads robin yes, lets hit the road and work our way over to 80 checking the drive into San Francisco, not a huge improvement just again. I was hoping that things will calm down a little bit but still pretty thick and slow into San Francisco here at the bay bridge toll plaza so no problems us a lot of heavy traffic with folks heading to work if you want to join them get out there early because yes, were still backed up to the bottom of the maze.

Widespread corruption. As it continues to refuse to acknowledge his last weve got david spot with more. President trump sunday morning appeared to acknowledge the results of the election tweeting in reference to joe biden quote he won because the election was rigged but about 20 minutes later the president tweeted quote i can see nothing we have a long way to go the president s not conceding anything in fact with the president was speaking to was the mindset of the media that theyre acting as if joe biden has already won the fact of the matter is states have not yet certified the president s legal battles are putting any transition on hold keeping team biden from accessing key Intelligence Briefings and other resources Public Health experts say the transition stonewalling is of particular concern as the country experiences, another surge of covid19 is almost like passing the baton in a race you dont want to stop and then give it to somebody you want to just essentially keep going thats what transition is so it certainly would make things more smoothly if we could do that doctor Anthony Fauci went on to say the president has not attended covid briefings in months the president did attend the briefings at the start of the pandemic. And that was david spun reporting. And as for the vaccine, the president said on friday, the majority of americans should be able to get it by april and doctor fauci agrees.

And allow people to get sick and we cant have our youth be so affected in january the administration moved to ban the sale of some products all flavored ecigarettes other than tobacco flavor would have to be removed from the market restrictions were aimed at leading manufacturers like jewel which agreed to stop selling its fruity and mint flavors but still does a brisk business selling tobacco and menthol pods. Or other loopholes single use vaping products are exempt despite their high nicotine content and 11 months later, those who fought for the ban say it hasnt worked well unfortunately, the steps Trump Administration took were totally inadequate. In the new data shows that we have over 3. 6 million kids still using these products. We see a higher percentage of them more than a dozen cities and states have taken steps to restrict vaping with legislation pending in more jurisdictions vaping advocates argue the end result is a booming black market and a spike in cigarette sales activist groups would rather have adult smokers who are risking their life believe that if they switch to a smoke free product they are still putting their health at risk that is nonsense and we need the Incoming Biden Administration actually support the science and look at the science rather than just listening to these activist groups where their answer is always ban than than and ask questions later.
