Well talk about what you can expect with slightly cooler temperatures and details coming up. We are keeping an eye on the realtime traffic and the map is seeing some hotspots this morning. Im keeping an eye on the off my pass as well as the golden gate. That commute into marin, thats slow as a result of the accidents. Here is a look at the travel times.
