The husky club does have meetups and resources so you can make sure that a husky is right for you before adoption. It stuns me that the show is so influential on what people are wanting to go and get. Thats very interesting. Its a great show. So many people watching it, but it doesnt mean that it translate well into your lifestyle. You really need to do your research before adopting a dog. Other things going on on the show you shouldnt adopt. Thats a good point. I was thinking more along the lines we saw that with chihuahuas, the explosion of that after they became popular after tv and movie. Good morning, everybody. Flight delays averaging 57 minutes at sfo. More sunshine and warmth today. Comfy tonight, and above average warmth all the way into august. Heres a look at our temperatures todays, i should say the fog, and then the temperatures. Notice how quickly its gone, by about 10 00, and evening along the coast, a little more sunshine than we saw yesterday. So heres a look at our temperatures. Big jump, especially in the south bay. Yeah, look what jumps out at you. Gilroy, 100. Morgan hill and los gatos in the upper 90s. Well be 91 in san jose. On the peninsula today, a lot of low to upper 80s. Millbrae at 74. Mid to upper 60s along the coast. Low 70s in downtown, south San Francisco, and sausalito. How about 88 to 92 through the north bay valleys. Along the east bay shore, pretty big spread. 74, oakland, 78, and fremont, 87. 98 in san ramon to 102 in brentwood. Tonight is going to be comfortable. How about temperature in the mid 50s to mid 60s. Heres a look at my accuweather sevenday forecast. What were going to deal with is heat inland. Mid to upper 90s. Even warm around the bay, low to mid 80s at the coast. Its been uncomfortable because of the fog. How is the commute going . We started off really quiet this morning and now we have a few more issues. A new one kind of in a tough spot. Northbound 87 at curtner avenue. A new crash reported less than ten minutes ago. Hearing its blocking the middle lane, and youre slow for at least a couple miles at this point. I will keep a close eye on that one. Another slow spot, bay bridge toll plaza. Metering lights are on since about 5 23 this morning. Some typical delays through the maze, and then a quick check of mass transit here. B. A. R. T. Back in the green here. We did have about a denminute delay in oakland. Thats gone now. 59 trains in service. Capitol corridor, train 521, aubt 30minute delay due to a bridge delay earlier, and no delays with vta in the green with normal service. Thank you.

Facebook was used as a major platform to spread what is called fake news during the u. S. Election campaign in the year 2016. Stay in your lane. The Golden Gate Bridge district says too many marathon runners broke the rules and now theyre threatening to keep everyone on the sidewalk next year. 15,000 runners crossed the bridge during the San Francisco marathon over the weekend. Some of them werent following the instructions. What the bridge wanted you to do is keep to the side of the road, like closer to the sidewalk, because the other lanes were set aside as a buffer zone and a bus lane, but apparently, people didnt want to do that. So now we cant have nice things. Things. Were not done yet. Were back at 6 54. Number one, all ride are closed at the Ohio State Fair after an 18yearold man was killed when a thrill ride malfunctioned. Seven others were injured when the fireball ride broke apart in midair. Number two, officials at the Santa Cruz Beach boardwalk plan to inspect the fireball thrill ride at that boardwalk. It was closed last night out of abundance of caution. The senate set to have a marathon voting session. One of the measures up for debate would only get rid of the individual and employer mandates while leaving other obamacare provisions intact. Firefighters in kansas city, missouri, rescued several drivers stuck in flash floods. Feast or famine, we have no rain in our forecast this time of year, but your planner is showing a lot of heat. Especially inland, with 90s, 80s around the bay, 70s into San Francisco. And number six, yeah, mike has the sunshine up above the clouds, but check it out at ground level, Golden Gate Bridge.

Breaking overnight, a tragic accident at the Ohio State Fair. At least one person killed. Seven others injured when this popular ride malfunctions, breaking apart in midair sending people flying. The governor ordering all rides shut down. We are live on the scene. Outrage growing this morning over president trumps ban on transgenders serving in the military. The military blindsided. His own top advisers surprised. Fierce reaction on both sides of the aisle as the white house leaves questions unanswered. What will happen to those already in uniform . Suspicious death on the high seas. The fbi investigating after this woman was found dead on a cruise ship. Witnesses saying they heard her screaming for her life
