Westbound 24 is slowing down past the scene because you can clearly see whats going on and 24 is backed up into orinda. This is going to have an effect on both sides of 24 approaching the tunnel.

But i do want to show you the traffic here is going to be busy. Slow traffic on westbound 24 is slow. Not from la fayette. You can drive from there to orinda. The slow traffic begins in orinda.

Its not as warm as it was, thank goodness on the weekend when we smashed records on the high tide, especially towards san jose. But there is a lot of cloud cover and very little rain.

A lot of 70s. More 60s coast and also to the north. All right, sal. Take it away, sir. Yes. We do have a lot of slow traffic out there because of a fire in the caldecott tunnel. Eastbound 24 in the right what they call bore number 1. This is a picture of the fire burning. They got people out of the cars stuck in the tunnel behind this car and got they out. Eastbound 24 in the right bore of the caldecott tunnel. This does not affect westbound commuters. People were slowing in the area. I want to show you. Eastbound 4 is backed up before highway 13. Westbound traffic will be slowing from orinda the its not backed up into la fayette which is good. Another 680 problem is 680. Look at the slow traffic here. This is because of an earlier sevencar pileup. Look at that slow traffic, its backing traffic up into concord. Its kind of meshing with the morning commute. This is a terrible commute. In case you had not heard, you will need extra time on this 680 commute heading down to san ramon. At the bay bridge toll plaza, it is backed you for a typical day of 20, 25 minutes getting into San Francisco. In case you are wondering about b. A. R. T. , its an alternate.
