We have a few clouds but its not raining. We wont see any rain today or tomorrow. Our temperatures are about normal for the start of the day with a blanket of clouds overhead that will eventually start to clear out. In concord, we are seeing temperatures going from 50 degrees at 9 00, to 1 00, 60 degrees, and then stopping in the low 60s. Temperatures wont rise much more from there. What we see around lunch, we are going to be dry and sunny and our temperatures will start to come up a few degrees for tomorrow. Headed for the mid to upper 60s.

Cars that were there or the drivers who own them, what an incredible stroke of bad luck or in one drivers case good luck. Have a listen. You say the wheel fell off from where . Reporter off a plane that lands here. What the [ bleep ]. Excuse me. I mean i was so lucky because just two cars away. Im almost the one. Reporter that is william, a very lucky sfo worker parked two cars away from the vehicle that was crushed by the tire. Now lets talk about the path of the wheel. If you look closer at the car that was hit, you can sort of see the smudge of rubber there. If you back up a little bit, you can actually see what looks like the curvature of the tire on the side of the car. From there you look behind the car at the krail and what appears to be a big smudge from the tire before the wheel went crashing through the fence on its way to the next parking lot and we can show you where the tire landed.
