Its going to be a long time before they are fully backed, but nonetheless there are hundreds of homes that were not here back then that are here now and how they do it. They did it as a team effort. It may seem overwhelming it may seem like a lot and emotionally can be at times but as weve seen in our neighborhood you can get through it dont try to do alone whether that is leading friends or professional health or find a support system of those drones court system heroes or structure and you get through it.

All right, thank you very much sara lets check the weather and see if thats going to be good news for firefighters this weekend. John yeah, it is definitely good news guys were not seeing too much rainfall which could actually hamper the fire fight but were seeing just enough of that drizzle this morning actually around the blaze that its helping to dampen at least round and tomorrow showers going to remain very light to which is going to further damping dampening things so that is definitely good news as far as we go this morning, theres a lot of cloud cover sitting across the bay and not just at the coast a half moon bay, either. But across the rest of the region low pressure area to our west this one that resulted in much more than her cool down in the cloud cover that we have today second one to our north will result in a better chance of a couple of scattered sprinkles tomorrow again this is not going to amount to much more than a sprinkle here there sunday we start to see things drying back out sunshine reappearing and temperatures starting to warm up and it will be the start of a continued warm up gradually through next week that doesnt result in increased fire danger towards the end of next week to keeping notes or not out of the woods just yet just in a brief break from these dry and hot conditions. Todays forecast looking dry aside from the drizzle tomorrow, couple of sprinkles not going to amount to much more just a trace of rainfall here in their 60s for your daytime highs in San Francisco today as well as right along the coastline. As for other spots in the bay, it will be 60s to 70s a whole lot like yesterday was redwood city and seeing carlos each at 72, south bay temperatures also in the low 70s today while 60s and 70s continue into the east bay. If you liked yesterday feel like today. I think a lot of us have been enjoying this little break from the hotter and drier conditions that we had been seeing. Tomorrow well keep that little break going before sunday temperatures start to rise, lots of sunshine. Monday tuesday wednesday. We keep the sunshine around as temperatures continue to climb. This eventually takes us back to the 90s inland by wednesday and thursday. Rob. All right.

Its in west oakland on the nimitz we have a crash thats still active 80 south at 7th street, the left lane blocked by a multi vehicle accidents at the top of the ramp there may involve some Police Activity as well so a little heavy out of west oakland on 80 south.

Thank you very much rob and we are now 25 days away from the election and one of the most controversial propositions on the state ballot is prop 22.
