That sentiment was repeated by many frustrated customers today and also a late county supervisor who said his community was devastated by the outage. They need to be held accountable.

I saw that as i was driving into oakland i noticed that it seemed like smoke. For more on this lets bring in mark tamayo. You said it is not smoke . We have been dealing with smoke moving in from the north. We have dense fog that really did not mix down completely. It could be combination possibly. If you are heading out this evening on numbers postside. In the short term for raiders football playing the chargers we are expecting partly cloudy skies. By halftime back down into the upper 50s around 57 degrees. Satellite showing the Storm Tracker in the storm track but it is moving way up to the north of the bay area. You can see circulation out here in the pacific and that is that area of High Pressure keeping us dry. We have low clouds and fog and then some high clouds added to the mix moving in from the north. We have low clouds and fog at the surface maybe 15 20,000 feet above our heads. We have high clouds drifting in and some haze floating in around portions of the bay. Here is satellite right now showing you some fog out there. Having a big impact on the temperatures. San francisco and Half Moon Bay those readings only in the 50s. Warm spots still hazy out toward fairfield and concord and the walnut creek area. Heres a live camera looking out toward the bay and the fog bank. You can see some high clouds and some lingering haze that is a very stagnant weather pattern. Theres not too much mixing to clear things out completely. This is like a summertime weather pattern. Low clouds and fog around for the morning hours. Impacting visibility so there is not too much change for tomorrow morning. As a result we will start out the day with areas of fog coast side. Cool spots back down into the upper 30s overnight. Heres the deal tomorrow morning. Into the afternoon hours for friday skies will clear back near the shoreline. Some leftover patches around the bay and there is the eventual temperature range from the 50s and maybe a few spots right around 80 degrees. Not a lot of change out there as far as the dry weather stretch it will continue. Storm track remains anchored to the north of the bay area and north of eureka.

The Oakland Raiders taking on the chargers at the coliseum in oakland. Very exciting. Our sports director joins us with the preview of the divisional matchup. All of us dressed in some form of raider. Silver and black, black and white whatever. This is a big game. The raiders want to prove that they are for real in the battle for a playoff spot. They are 44. Joe got to go out to the game and deal with it out there. He will have the post game interviews for us afterwards. Joe, your thoughts about the raiders going into this matchup with their longtime rival the chargers . Reporter we will get in to attire in a moment, but the raiders and chargers original members of the afl dating all the way back to 1960. This will be the last game between the two teams played at the Oakland Coliseum and it is two teams that are a kind of a crossroad. The raiders as you said ringing a 44 record in here and the chargers are 45. Both teams have to feel like if you can win this one you take a big step to being involved in the playoffs. As far as the raiders are concerned they have some winnable games. They have cincinnati after this and then the new york jets. They have to feel like if they get past this one they are in pretty good shape. This is a National Tv Game that will look a little different. The raiders are wearing white jerseys with silver numerals. Something they did in the 60s. If you want to talk about a traditional look, the San Diego Chargers, i still call them that because that is who they were after the first year in los angeles, they are the Los Angeles Chargers again but they are wearing traditional powder blue uniforms of john hale and lance. If you are watching on National Television tonight, it will look like an oldtime matchup. That is what the folks on national tv have to think about and what they will see. One person who is not a big fan of thursday night football and that is jon gruden. I hate i dont believe in this thursday football. Im not going to be on my soapbox any more than that. It hurts us. It hurts both teams. We take a lot of pride in getting our guys ready to play. We need a little time to do that. But a lot of people disagree with me obviously. It will be a challenge. Coach gruden said congrats on the win and ill get over it. You get the emotions of a 41 stopped in front of your home crowd and 10 minutes later it doesnt matter. We lost to them twice last year. We need to get this win. We need to make sure we handle this and take care of it. Reporter is mattering right now is a section of the chargers players just came out. It is what you would expect from the oakland crowd. What was surprising there is you dont often hear the kind of candor that we just heard by jon gruden. You and i talked about this. You cant talk about player safety and give lip service to Something Like that and say everybody has to play on thursday after only four days to recover from a sunday game. But that is the way things are and that is a landscape in the nfl these days in the raiders and chargers will play out here in an important afc west game. As you said we will see you after the game for the post game stuff as well. Jon gruden very candid about the fact of thursday night football, that is not enough time to rest but it is a money grab. Aside from the fact that the game is on our air, lets change the subject and talk about the raiders moving from oakland and we were talking earlier on the set about how tuff it is for the most loyal fans probably in all of professional sports dealing with having their team torn away from them. I had a chance to talk with how we long earlier this afternoon. The longtime oakland raider, la raider, silver and black in his bloodstream and heres his reaction to how it feels to have this team moving to vegas next year. I think everyone who has ever been a part of the Oakland Raiders having broken into the league in 1981, the passion that that fan base has for that team is second to none. It is an unfortunate part of the business and i do know that mark, i know for a fact that mark did everything he could to try to keep the team in oakland. After try after try after try at some point you have to come to the realization it will not be a reality and it is unfortunate. I think the raiders are hopeful that people from the bay area will make the sojourn to vegas and enjoy a weekend occasionally in las vegas which is not a bad place to go to. I wanted to ask you more specifically this encounter tonight, thursday night football. A good matchup with the chargers. They have a long history themselves with playing the raiders and rivers has a pretty good record. I think he is 186 against the silver and black. Not on my watch. Right. This encounter tonight the raiders for4 very important obviously to play an Inter Division game the way you see it shaping up tonight . I dont think many felt like the raiders would be for4 at this point. I think the general feeling is it was a total rebuild. This game is a big game for the raiders for a scheduling standpoint being viable in terms of the playoffs. I think nine could possibly get you in. 10 would probably get you in. With games versus cincinnati and the jets to follow after the charger game it makes this game the more important. You have been impressed with the kid out of alabama, josh jacob. When you watch him at alabama and we are going to do a little story on his background and the road that has taken to where he is today, his family situation and the struggles he went through to get to where he is today. Mike mayock and jon gruden talk about wanting to bring in people that have the right stuff. Josh jacobs has the right stuff. The way he ran at alabama and the way he runs now is very impressive. He is a young guy and i think he just broke marcus is rookie record which was set in 1982 and that was the year i was living at the Oakland Airport hilton that year and we were flying every week and then air cal down to los angeles and flying back and forth. I love the kid. Final question, you have had a hall of fame ball career on the field. If they had a hall of fame for broadcasting you would be in that, too. Are you still enjoying it . You bring a fresh take on fox. Are you still liking it . As you said we have been in the business a long time. What keeps you fresh . It ought to be illegal. I would say i work really hard at one time but it has been a long time since i worked hard. It is a great job. We call it lightning in a bottle 26 years ago with our show and it is a great group of guys and we generally enjoy one another and it is a lot of fun. That was how we long of course. Coming right up the raiders hosting the chargers. It is so hard not to say San Diego Chargers after all these years. I understand that they are having a hard time generating emotion and excitement when they do get that brandnew stadium in la. There is some talk about the chargers maybe going to london. They have two teams potentially. I love talking to guys like how we long. I knew him so far back as to when he was a player. They are truly heartbroken about the raiders. They understand progress and the reasons behind it but they are bummed about the fact that the raiders are leaving town. We are counting down the games at the Oakland Coliseum. Do get sentimental . I know she does. As i was saying i feel terrible for the diehard raiders fans. They are incredible. Whenever we cover those games. I think they are the best fans in all sports. We have the game coming right up. Raiders and chargers from the coliseum. We are heading over to ktvu plus right now. Its time for the veterans day sale on the sleep number 360 smart bed.

This combative atmosphere has harbored some of the leagues most legendary players in the leagues oldest rivalries. Where domination on the field is met with intimidation in the stands. The tradition does not start with the place, it starts with the season
