Is there any breeze . Not much as yesterday. So we still get the on shore wind, even napa airport, watch the low clouds burn off sooner today. Weak little system yesterday, so today is the push, not much in the way of a breeze. Cool air settled in for us, we are slightly below average on these temps. Except near the coast. 60s, 70s, 80s to a few 80s farther inland. Its 4 01. Good morning, sal. Good morning to you, steve. We dont have a lot going on which is nice. We always like to start nice and quiet and starting off with the tracy commute, if you are driving on 580 westbound it looks good so far if you want to get a nice drive through tracy, 205 and 580 Altamont Pass to livermore, nice drive out to the Hayward Castro area.

I can remember the frantic phone call from my grandmother, during the call, she could hardly speak. I could hardly make out her words. I am trying to get her to explain to me, hoping she is overreacting to something
