Well check in with mike in a little bit for the Early Morning commute but first i want to say good morning to meteorologist kari hall. Good morning. We will have a slightly cooler day but we are still watching that high fire danger and quite a few things im watching in the forecast as we go into the next couple days as the cool down continues and it will be gusty at times and, of course, that increases our fire danger. That continues over the next couple days. In terms of temperatures, were looking at some low 80s in the south bay and mid 80s for the east bay and 85 today in napa. Well get a look at all the microclimates coming up. Mike, how is it looking right now for the morning drive. Couple things stand out unusual, kari. The unusual is the green that we see, except for out of the Altamont Pass and eastbound 84 where we still have a few yellow sensors there. No schedul

Thanks for joining us. Im laura garcia. And im marcus washington. Weight get to that commute in just a bit but, first, lets start out with meteorologist kari hall on this wednesday. Kari, of course, the fire something were still talking about because its affecting our weather. Right, and were watching the air quality as well as the weather conditions around the area of the fire. Were seeing temperatures come down right now only in the upper 50s around the glass fire area and we have a calm wind and very high humidity so hopefully that will slow the spread of those flames. But our air quality will remain unhealthy today especially in the north bay as well see more of that smoke coming in and it will be unhealthy for the north bay as well t and that drifts across all of our microclimate as well. So were going
Its starting to move again. Well look at the maps. The yield is there was a crash in the same area where theres a construction crew. We are already down to one lane, just the right lane that a deadly crash happened about 1 00 in the morning. Sounds like almost all that crash activity is over and is out of lanes. Theres a little distraction for more flashing lights and then that Construction Zone and we hear about a late pickup for north 880. West 580 is a great alternate. If you stick it out, allow yourself another ten minutes. Back to you. Good to know. Thank you, mike. Showdown on the future of the Supreme Court this morning begins on capitol hill.

Bay down to the south county. Well talk more about our temperatures in the forecast in a few minute. Mike, how is it looking right now for the commute . The last half hour was busy as far as finding the slow spots but now as we look at the maps things have calmed down quite a bit, even san jose where we saw the slowing which sometimes sticks around until 6 30. I think 6 40, 6 45 well see more south bay slowing again. Little pockets through berkeley and oakland have cleared up for 24, 580 and i80. The bay bridge toll plaza and i80. We do see the middle lanes starting to stack up that has been the trend so a slow build for the last 15 minutes. No metering lights yet. Back to you. Thank you, mike.

Our highs at Half Moon Bay mid60s for San Francisco. Highs in the upper 60s and low 70s for the south bay as well as the north bay. We will continue on with weather like this for the weekend. Kari, a crash and no details yet in the palo alto area. On the right side this is what were concerned with getting away from the bay bridge south 880. Look how much it jams up around the bend past seven. Theres a crash and a lot of crews there. Three vehicles had to be removed after apparently a headon crash but no major injuries. We hope to see that clearing soon as we look at the rest of the approach. No backup. Back to you.
