Someone inappropriately dressed for the weather. Someone staring out into the distance, that thousandfoot stare. Angels work in teams, wear orange arm bands, and their job is positive engagement. Just really listen. Let them unload that despair. What is triggering them. They have come to the point in their life where they are
Effect. Where you will find the poorest air quality across the region will be in the north bay and santa clara valley. We are hoping as we get into midweek in the week, the air quality will improve.

If you havent picked up your christmas presents by now, your options are limited. If you need to get some gifts, abc 7. 6 of consumers wait until Christmas Eve to shop. For some people waiting until the last minute is fun. I love the feeling of being around people and the crowds. I got some rare bottoms here. These are beautiful shoes and you can put them on the womans feet and let her know there is no place like home. Two seconds away from anxiety attack. But it
Clearer than it was this time yesterday, gorgeous picture of the Embarcadero Center there. Lets talk about your accuweather 1 hour planner, starting off with temperatures, we do have a few 30s inland, low to mid 40s elsewhere. As we head towards noon, mid to upper 50s with a little more sunshine than yesterday, we will be in the mid 50s to near 60 by 4 00, by 7 00 maybe you can hear that new coat, 49 to 52. Will have more on that coming up next. Here is sue with a look at not too many people on the roads this morning. Lets hope we dont jinx ourselves here. We will go to the bay bridge toll plaza where things are perfect if you want to be up this morning and traveling you will have no delays at the bay bridge and into San Francisco. Green all the way around and that is how we like it. Lets take a look at some of our mass transit. Changes for this morning, if you are travel to the bridge you cannot park in any of the lots there.

Live doppler 7, we have half mile visibility in santa rosa, petaluma up to 5, so the ebb and flow of the fog across the north bay will be one big story across the morning. Pretty quiet out there. Here is my accuweather 12 hour planner, 38 to 47 this morning, 55 to 58 about noon, 53 to 60 at 4 00 and 48 to 51.

The onesie was a big gift at our christmas yesterday at home. They are pretty cool. All right. Here we go, a lot of head lights but moving in and at the limit past Golden Gate Fields and on University Avenue and into berkeley and the berkeley curve into the macarthur maze, no delays here. Green is great, thats what were seeing all around the bay area. I have a feeling it will be that way pretty
Morning commute. It is virtually nonexistent. Its very light out there and i expect it will be that way most of this holiday week. We had an earlier stall approaching the san matteo bridge toll plaza thats been moved off to the side, traffic is knowing nicely a few brake lights but basically you are looking at about a 15 minute drive from 880 over towards foster city. This is good looking traffic map this morning with all green. Tracy to dublin under 25 minutes, highway 4 is looking great into concord. If your travels take you from san rafael into southern marin across the span of the Golden Gate Bridge less than 20 minutes.
