One in three americans is traveling holiday time, primetime for the not so frequent traveler, lines look long, they are longer during the Holiday Season when you have families with kids traveling instead of business travellers who move through the lines quickly. Be patient if youre heading to heading to an airport. 98. 6 million americans plan to travel 50 miles or more during the holidays and airports on the east coast are socked in today. Rain and low ceilings are causing delays. So, that fog is really affecting air travel. Hour and a half delays at newark, laguardia, jfk, an hour two hours delay in philadelphia and tomorrow, christmas eve, like we mentioned, the midwest will be affected. You know that causes a Ripple Effect all the way across the country. So, maybe the road trippers are onto something, unleaded gas now averaging 2. 37 a gallon, less than 2, you can get a gallon of gas in 27 states, unfortunately, not one of those states is california. I think you might have guessed that, but everywhere you look, gas about 80, 81 cents cheaper than it was this time last year, more traveling by the roadways the next few days. That is the situation here. Ohare looking great so far, very crowded this morning, but things are expected to change tomorrow when the snow comes in, so, check your flights, no matter where youre coming from, cause you know, if a major hub like this gets tangled up, it can have that domino effect all across the country.

Tomorrow, 10 00 in the morning, notice the futurecast, right through noon, keeps all of the rain across the north bay. So, tomorrow morning will be dry for most of us, our morning commute. If you have got the day off, you can enjoy the clouds and the fog at home but you will notice by 3 00, the rain pushes into the south bay, into the east bay, the trivalley and the peninsula. So, we will see the rain, at least during the day. Then look at this, by the evening hours, we clear out, not only the bay area clears, Central Valley clears and tahoe clears out after ber 7, 8 00. So, get the rain and also get the snow and also get the wind. In fact, the winds going to pick up. Look at this map. Watch how it explodes. You see that, 8, 9 00 tomorrow afternoon or evening, after we get the rain, the winds really going to start to pick up, talking anywhere from 20 to 40 Miles Per Hour in our inland valleys and possibly winds up to 50 Miles Per Hour at the coastline. So, keep that in mind, we just saw in our report earlier, 20 minutes ago, a mudslide in San Francisco, keep in mind, no rain today, we had no wind, but the ground is so saturated from last weeks storms, in fact, the past two to three week storms any additional rain, any additional wind can really cause problems. Tomorrow, we will be on guard all day tracking that storm as it moves in. The good news here in the bay area by thursday, we will be looking dry. So, nice to see the rain come and go.

Everywhere else, looking good, here is the deal, this system these out east, it is going to continue to make the bay up the eastern seaboard, producing lots of heavy rain from florida all the way up toward maine and that includes those midatlantic states, including new york city and boston, the major hubs much the other thing, tomorrow, we will continue to see the clouds stream on in as our next storm system takes shape and that is going to linger all the way through about 5 00 tomorrow afternoon. Right now, beautiful blue skies, oh, its been such a long tim since we have seen Crystal Clear skies like this, not even a cloud in the sky from the south bay through San Francisco, even into the north bay. Right now, 65 degrees, clocking in at menlo park. 65 your my San Francisco later on. 71 for the north bay today and 70 for the south bay. Let talk about this system moving our way. Across the Pacific Northwest now sending a steady stream of moisture toward portland and seattle. That system, going to be here tomorrow morning, this is 10 00, notice the futurecast completely clouded in tomorrow to start the day. Bien into, those showers move toward santa rosa, napa over toward fairfield, all of that heavy activity is going to stay north of the Golden Gate Bridge tomorrow, at least until about the till about noon. The afternoon hours, see that rain pushing to the south bay, the trivalley and peninsula as well. This rain is going to be out of here by about 5, 6 00, look what happens, the overnight hours, clear out completely, even tahoe, get some snow but it will be done by 7, 8 00. The other thing to keep in mind is it is going to be extremely windy the system comes through, going to get the rain first, the winds will kick up, look at the map, 40 to 50 miles an hour at the coastline, across higher elevations, the valley floor, winds up to 20 to 4 Miles Per Hour. Again, even though it is not that strong can cause problems, even this morning, we had a mudslide from residual rain that we saw the past week or so. So, keep in mind, do live near some of the tall trees and power lines, be alert, want to pay attention, the rain is going to come in tomorrow, done by 3, 4, 5 00. Then after that, really windy all wait through Christmas Morning so we will be dry but its going to be cold. In fact, look at that overnight low on christmas, you see that . 38 degrees. Yes, san jose, christmas night. So once we get done with this storm, the rain, the wind, going to get cold around here.

Any little bit of rain or wind can be detrimental to some of those trees and power lines, the only good thing, yes, we love the snow this is where a lot of our reservoirs lie and where we get a lot of our water from. You will notice from four to eight inches expected above 4,000 feet and above 6,000 feet, they are expecting up to a foot.

Smart bulb, for instance, you screw it in like you would any other bulb but you can control it through the lights through the app on your cell phone. You can change the color of the lighting on a color wheel. You can add different modes like party mode or romantic mode. You can even set it to alert you when youre getting a call on your phone. Romantic mode. Okay. Well, maybe this will drain your phone, so in that case, you can recharge it with the portable mofi power reserve. Clip it to your key chain and comes with an apple lightning cable inside. One charge gives your phone about 60 more battery life. I know a lot of people in this building love t.
