High clouds north, 40s in the temps and 50s. Except for high clouds, mostly sunny and mild today, might be a little brisk this morning for some. Sal, what about the traffic . Its getting busier. Look at the east bay commute and you can see the carquinez bridge is taking less than 40 minutes there, slow at the bay bridge toll plaza as well. At the toll plaza youll see traffic backed up to the macarthur maze. Traffic is very slow. Now back to the desk.

An 8-year-old boy turned his hobby into a fundraiser for a Bergen County police department to outfit its police dog with a protective vest.
Mason Duffy, of Mahwah, began painting wooden pallets with the American flag last spring during the coronavirus shutdown. He didn’t set out to make money from the patriotic project.
“The overwhelming response he received was incredible with people looking to purchase them from him,” according to a social media post from the Little Ferry Police Department, which will soon have a K-9 unit.

A dog may be man’s best friend, but an 8-year-old boy from Mahwah now has some buddies of his own at the Little Ferry Police Department.
Mason Duffy didn’t expect that so many people would offer to buy the flags that he’d painted on wooden pallets during the COVID lockdown.
“He wasn’t looking to sell them,” Little Ferry Police Chief James Walter said. “But he was getting tons of requests.”
So Mason decided to fundraise his art and contribute some of the proceeds to a worthy cause.
By the time he was finished, Mason had painted 66 pallets with the Stars and Stripes, as well as Blue Line (police) and Red Line (firefighter) flags. It raised an impressive $4,613.
