There was talk about the new york city turnstile where you have the steel are. Is from basically from the ceiling to the floor but a lot of people didnt like that this seems to be the front runner words clear glass. Once you pay year gate fee it opens up in close is like a grocery store.

Everybody is pele come behind me. Do you get a response, i know how i feel unlike you i need you do that. I prefer that they dont do it behind me. You know, but it does affect everyone else because it increases the ad. So so far barr has not given us a price tag on how much the new system will cost but we do know once the vote today is should not be long before they implement a system wide and the reason why they cant give us a price tag so far is because they have not decided yet on which system but you can see the gates behind me, it looks like soon go the way of the dodo bird back to you. Thank you very much well and speaking apart by the way im at the video of the major track rebuilding project that theyre doing out of lafayette station. Its kind of cool to see it when it all fast forward like that you can actually see for real with yeah, theyre replacing sections of track that like 50 years old so its work that they need to do. Theyll resume at this weekend which means of course theyll be a free bus bridge that will shuttle passengers between the renda and walnut creek stations and dont forget to those 2 left lanes of highway 24 in that area are going to be shut down so they can make room for the crane and all the other equipment that they need. Bart says drivers should expect delays. Time now 6 oh 7. The time soon get ready to pay for now. A gallon. Yeah, its funny the price hike comes amid some problems at several california refineries just weeks after the attack on oil fields in saudi arabia. So thats confluence of all these Different Things i was at the gas station yesterday to fill out. Yeah, it was 3. 99 as those filling up the guy was out their childbearing years on the board taking it i think was like 4 oh 4 oh 9. All that was going to be small came to dying on the halftime a galley acro first person that hro live in lafayette with christina. Well you know james youre mentioning 4 oh 09 00am sure lafayette, one of the 76 station. And if you pay with your card here its 14 29, still looking at a top dollar here in the east bay, but its no surprise that the california averages. Well above others in the United States and it actually the highest across the entire nation. But obviously this comes after those attacks acts in saudi arabia and we have seen an incredible marge large increase at the pump just within the past week. Now the of the attack actually push the National Average 10 cents higher. And even some stations up to a quarter higher across the u s actually have some numbers here that we want to shore each show you of california average is an average is right here in the bay area right now californias average cost is now up to 3 a 74. A gallon of unleaded gas and then we claims you are 3. 81 san jose 3. 85. And you guessed it were continuing to hike up as we go to sandra fell thats 3. 98, San Francisco, any of those look pretty cheap compared to right here at the corner in lafayette. Even so though this price hike is something you definitely dont want to hear about we do have some good news a lot of the experts weve been speaking with do say the this hike should only last a little bit here and is it is expected to go right on down even within despite the national out bridges act we down.

As you can see in the north bay pge restored power yesterday afternoon for folks who had to go almost all day without its that Power Outages that we reported started around 4 30 yesterday morning that they had to cut off. Because theyre worried about high fire danger in certain areas so they got back a power now theyre in the north bay plus they still live while they were started to most of the sierra foothills. There are some remote areas this going to take a little longer. This is the new deal. High fire danger days. Theyre going to monitor it shut off power have to demand a wildfire in a tough spot because when it works theres no fire right and thats hard to prove that work because theres no fire to point and say we stopped that but im glad there was no fire and hopefully the power outage was partly responsible for that you know the weather is also turning the corner to its is very much so so as we return to having power today youre probably not even going need not me that he sees very much these next couple of days as temperatures will cool down a progressively from today on into tomorrow today are all already noticing the difference in the skies thats the return of fog, some nice ocean cool their streaming right back into the bay this morning. Odds switching out some clear skies that we saw the past few days with the return of that marine layer which as we know it does us a favor oftentimes hear the bay area keeping things so nice and cool we do have dry conditions and a big pattern change in the midst of these dry conditions High Pressure was shaped up to our west now being replaced by the significant on shore flow today bringing with it fog and that wand cooler temperatures even as compared to today into tomorrow so today still warm one for many areas, were still going to be in the 80s for parts of the bay as you can see 60s and 70s out along the shoreline for many inland areas, daytime highs will still inch closer to the 90 degree mark but for areas like san jose which were close to triple digits yesterday 87 morley doesnt sound so bad and next to those triple digits that we had yesterday east bay areas no 90s no triple digits. Its just upper 80s at the warmest walnut creek danville in concord up to 88 degrees each Oakland Berkeley and richmond up into the mid to upper 70s.

Its just that theres some more traffic year leading up to the pay gates, so its just now getting busy. Were only at 11 minutes to make that trip into the north bay which is really good. The bay bridge traffic, 80 west much heavier this skills back through the maze now so youre going to have to wait a little bit before you pay your money 11 minutes to make it off to fremont street thats considered a good average with no crashes and no stall so so far its holding up well, ill take you over to kercher past just in case, you use it as a short cut between maybe conquered wanted creek pittsburgh. It all depends on where you going. But in the commute direction at hess, just got word of an overturned accident Kercher Passat has road. Crews are on the way its pretty fresh. So you may want to avoid that stretch until they can get it out of your way, 6. 80 dublin to fremont averaging 21 minutes and 2. 37. Minutes to make it from 80 over to one oh one in sunny about james. All right. Thank you very much robert. To washington dc now as we continue to follow breaking news. Live pictures from inside the hearing room, wheres the House Intelligence Committee has just begun its hearing this morning thats adam schiff, representative adam schiff, the chairman of the committee and of course in the hot seat today is acting director of National Intelligence there he is. Joseph. With liking on his last name right on the wire and we are going to be hearing him speak in just a moment at the beginning of these hearings as we always see theres going to be nothing statement by the ranking members and thats what were seeing happen right now and then well hear the Opening Statements from mister require himself that was to just a brief listen it was care part of chairmanships opening comments right now. Ford forces us to confront the remedy. The founders provided for such a flagrant for such a flagrant abuse of office. Impeachment. Now this matter would not have come to the attention of our committee or the nations attention without the courage of a single person. As you know director maguire more so than perhaps any other area of government since we deal with classified information. Intelligence committee is dependent on whistleblowers to reveal wrongdoing when it occurs. When the agencies do not self report. Because outside parties are not allowed to scrutinize your work. If that system is allowed to break down. As it did here. If of whistleblowers come to understand that they will not be protected. One of 2 things happen. Serious wrongdoing goes unreported or whistleblowers take matters into their own hands and divulged classified information to the press in violation of the law. And placing our National Security at risk. All right so again youre hearing as chairman schiff deliver his Opening Statements and you heard him allude there to the fact that in his estimation. The system broke down for this whistleblower and whats at the crux of the matter is the fact that the whistleblower according protocol will take their concerns to the Inspector General Inspector General does a investigation and when they feel that there is a credible and imminent threat as a result of this. Action that the whistleblowers reporting and they take that to the National Director of National Intelligence and within 7 days. Director of National Town just supposed to report that finding that was a floor account that complaint to congress but that wasnt done in this case instead the director of National Intelligence who is in the hot seat today decided to get the opinion of the Justice Department and the white house as to what to do next. And the Justice Department in the white house instructed the director of national tellers to rome a drone the wire he see there to not take it to congress and that thats this complaint did not qualify as a whistleblower complaint and so theyre going to grill him today on why he decided to deviate from protocol in that respect so well have to wait and see again were expecting just to deliver his Opening Statements shortly and jewels.
