From there hes gone. The stroller, with a design similar to this one, was deemed dangerous and had to be resulted in 2010 after bobbys death. The problem . The size of the space between the tray and the seat. The opening was large enough to allow a childs unharnessed torso to slide through but not the head so the child could get caught and get straining he would. Bobby was not strapped in. Strollers should be safe even if the child is unharnessed. The Consumer Reports tests have found several strollers in the past years that pose a similar strangulation risk. There has been a result.

Although San Francisco dropping into the upper 30s right now and many 20s in the north bay. Its even in the low 30s at the coastline. So another nip by start from our sutro camera. Today, this afternoon, its the north bay that will see the poorest air quality with the High Pressure. A lid on the atmosphere and very little mixing. Yesterday we had quite a breeze. Low 30s oakland, redwood city at freezing. San jose just above. And below freezing in los gatos with Half Moon Bay checking in at 37 degrees.

Yesterday we had much milder temperatures in the 40s. Milder, thats relative, right . So we are much, much cooler. Its going to take probably until the middle of the week or the end of the week before we get out of those freezing morning low temperatures. Ill show you that in a moment. As we get going through the afternoon, plenty of sunshine. Another chilly day today. A few 50s, mainly in the 40s. And a warming trend by monday. You will notice a difference out there.

Our satellite and radar composite, much of the nation gripped in a huge cold spell and the west coast in particular with High Pressure building in. That cool, northerly flow continues to pump that cool air from canada down into the bay area. So the morning lows, 20s and 30s this morning along the coast and around the bay. Then by tomorrow look at that, even chillier. Tuesday not much of a difference. It is going to take until toward the end of the week for the lows to modify. Middle part of the week for the ties. 50 in oakland today, 49 in san jose with upper 40s in morgan hill, as well as Half Moon Bay. The northeast winds 5 to 10 miles an hour. The spare the air day today and the accuweather sevenday forecast. The chilly start, low to mid50s, though, by some areas around the bay even tomorrow. Tuesday and wednesday a little milder and the overnight lows come up with afternoon high of 60s. And very slight chance of showers into friday. Abc
