Midtoupper 60s under sun. Leyla . As we look at the altamont pass, it is looking clear right now and you can see 580 at top speeds making the drive away from tracy to dublin. Not seeing any problems. No accidents to report. Further to the north along highway 4 that is hooking clear at 62 Miles Per Hour from antioch to pittsburg. Mostly wide open. From emeryville camera to the bay bridge it is clear moving to treasure island, and the toll plaza is empty, but we still have a few extra cars with so many still stay at him or headed out to the sales. Matt and eric . Thank you. An that did if santa did not get you egg, retailers are offering huge discounts. The stores are open. Maybe kohls is tired they did a marathon opening before Christmas Eve because they are supposed to open at 5 00, but not quite open. We have not seen anyone unlock the doors. So maybe they have even had enough. They are scheduled to be open now with retailers doing all they can to draw in reluctant shoppers. Some are
Matt . We just got an update from firefighters. A dog was killed in the fire. Firefighters are still on the scene talking with residents, mopping out. This was a lot of water on the round and in the apartments. They are clearing up the equipment. Check out this video we shot off the phone of an apartment residents showing how huge the flames were when this fire broke out inside one of the two apartments destroyed. It started at 2 45. This was a family with a threemonthold baby. Two men jumped from the balcony to escape. Check out the video of the aftermath, a firefighter walked us through the two apartments gutted by the flame. One man who jumped suffered cuts with a minor knee injury but did not need to go to the hospital. Firefighters are investigating what started the fire. I spoke with red cross. They gave me the number of people impacted by the fire 27 people have been evacuated from the building. Ten are staying with family or friends. They will be helping 17 residents on the sce
Needs to be done is the residents can move back into their homes. In the end, people are happy that no one was seriously injured or killed in the fire. There is in good time for a fire but 2 45 could be the most dangerous. Two dozen people were sloping in eight units at the apartments in hayward when flames erupted. A man shot the vehicle while escaping the burning home. The flames were huge, the smoke blinding. Somehow, everyone made it out. Everyone was like, get out, get out. It was smoke covering the whole apartment. We could not see a thing. One of the two destroyed units you can see how devastating the flames can be to a building nothing was last but for water and the overwhelming smell of smoke. A total of 27 people were evacuated from their homes including eight children. This baby escaped with the mother while the father and uncle joined them by jumping to safety. She crawled through the access and slid down the steps. That is how the baby got. My sister crawled down the stair
In the philippines, survivors of typhoon haiyan are making it out of the country as supplies are slowly making their way in. The Philippine Military planes are transporting victims from tacloban to manila. The death toll now is 1,700 but it is expected to go much higher. The United States is pledging 20 million in immediate air. The outpouring of support continues in the bay area. They are bringing whatever they can. This man drove across the bridge from oakland to put 4 in0 in te collection box and this new mom dropped off baby food. Watching imaging of the suffering children was too much. The thought of not having food for your baby although my baby is not eating, just breast milk, i cannot imagine. The Filipino Service center has been collecting donations and another agency agreed to donate the cost of shipping the goods to the philippines. You can make a killing on this. In South San Francisco another effort to help the victims, the most civicmined filipino americans came to a rest
Here. I spoke with a man who could not make it out the door because of the flames and the smoke. He had to jump from a secondstory balcony. Check out this video from one of the two apartments destroyed. This starts at 2 45 a. M. We walked through the apartment. Nothing is left. Firefighters are investigating what started the fire. They say one person suffered a minor injury. Six apartments have been evacuated. A baby was in an apartment. Everyone is okay but for the minor injury. Water is in the apartment but nothing serious. They are kept out because the power has been turned off. There is a smoky yell in the smoky smell in the apartments. No word on how long the firefighters will be here. They will make sure nothing flares before they leave the scene. Thank you, matt. It doesnt look like firefighters were hampered by the weather conditions, mike . No, not ought all. We have the possibility of sprinkles in the north by. Maybe. Radar shooting into the clouds but below 12,000 it is bone
