And traffic on the 4s. Its a little chilly out there this morning. tis the season, i guess. Were getting there. Weve been spoiled. Were talking about temperatures finally near normal as opposed to well above normal. Fall jackets needed this morning, especially north and west of the city. A lot of 40s there. Clouds will filter out the sunshine today, but there will be periods of sunshine. A cool breeze coming off the ocean. Temperatures only in the low and mid70s.

Stuart i dont think it will make a difference to what our viewers see in the immediate future or where they see it but look down
