Im laura garciacannon. And im scott mcgrew in for sam brock. Lets get your morning started with a look at a humid forecast. How about we pick up the bay area and move it to miami . We are going to feel the humidity increasing. If you think its muggy this morning. Thats nothing compared to what will have today and theres a heat advisory in effect. It mostly includes the hills where temperatures will reach over 100. We do have some lightning and some rain just offshore just across the Central Coast and just to the southwest of here. Ill be tracking that as it moves closer to the bay area. More details on that coming up. Mikes tracking two crashes right now. Youre tracking lightning, im tracking just two crashes. Overall the Speed Sensors look great for the bay area freeway except for up here. This is southbound highway 242. That crash still blocks your fast lane and your slow from highway 4. The longer route is the better route. We do have inth overturned big rig which caused a 238 offramp to be closed. Lighter summer traffic and being a wednesday, youre still moving well. The reason its closed, an overturned big rig. Thats that breaking news that weve been covering since we came on air this morning, that big rig crash in hayward. Bob redells been there since 5 00. He knows the latest. Reporter you can see that big rigs been uprightsed. Its on the back of a wrecker. We expect it to be hauled out of here at any moment. The issue right now looks like theyre trying to secure the cab to the trailer and i dont know if you can see in the background theres some kral tran workers, some oil spilled so theyre trying to clean that up. A minor hazmat situation. Until they get this removed the onramp and offramp is going to be shot down. This is what the scene looked like just over an hour ago. The driver of this big rig was coming off the ramp, going too fast and lost control and the big rig went over and went over on the its side of the drivers okay. 70,000 pounds of washers and drivers in the trailer. The concern was that when they were uprighting it that maybe they would tear the trailer, but the Wrecker Company brought out these air bags, they were able to get the truck upright and keep it intact so thats going to make it easier to get it out of here. Its just a matter of towing it out of this location. That driver could face a citation. Now youre looking at northbound 230. The traffic heading from the left side to the right side of your tv screen. Thats traffic on northbound 238. You can see the traffic is pretty much at the limit. This is so far off 238 that people cant see it so you dont have a lookie loo issue unfortunately according to chp, they say these ramps are not huge major thorough fares during the commute. Reporting live here in hayward, bob redell, today in the bay. Thank you. Developing now in Alameda County, authorities there investigating a shooting near hayward.

New this morning, soda consumption dropping in the united states. 31 year low in 2016 according to new numbers from beverage digest. The decline is likely because people are becoming more health conscious. The news come as big Soda Companies like coke and pepsi diversify with things like bottled water and tea. In oregon zoo is making headlines as well. Its shutting down today and tomorrow all because of the heat. Temperatures expecting to top 105 degrees there. Even the polar bear got to find a little cool. Staff will work to make sure animals have a place to cool down and stay safe. Well have to do the same thing right here in the bay area. I remember when we did that story here just trying to keep the animals cool and you even have to think about your pets today as those temperatures will be really hot and we are going to catch a little bit of a break as we head toward the weekend but we just have to make it through the next couple days. Look at this temperature right now in the trivalley, its already 69 degrees. We normally start at about 55 degrees so you know it feels unusual warm and then throw in some humidity and it does not feel at all like its supposed to. Were at 59 degrees in the east bay and its 56 degrees in San Francisco. We can see those clouds there but the rest of San Francisco is mostly sunny. The sevenday forecast is at the bottom of the screen. Notice the clouds in the forecast tomorrow and then today were up to 98 degrees in the east san jose. Gilroy heading up to 102 degrees, so pretty much matching the temperatures where we were yesterday. Were going to see the same as you move through the delta and also the trivalley. Livermore today up to 103 degrees while oakland will be at 80 degrees and for the peninsula, 67 in Half Moon Bay, palo alto, 91 degrees. San francisco and the Marina District up to 70 degrees today. 84 in mill valley and santa rosa at 90 degrees today and partly cloudy skies. Im also tracking something that we havent seen in quite a while, some rain is just offshore, just to the southwest of here and this shows some live lightning icons that have been detected by our radar and been producing some lightning offshore. This will be a concern as this system moves closer to the bay area later on this evening. Well see the increasing cloud cover and feel the humidity and this is what the computer models do with this. It keeps the rain just to the south of us moving across the Central Coast and there will be a slight chance of some rain in the bay area late tonight and early tomorrow morning. Well also see mostly cloudy skies and well be watching for especially around the hills the chance of dry lightning moving through. We just saw that video of the intense heat across the pacific northwest, this is the reason why but its far enough north this large area of High Pressure to allow for that monsoonal moisture to move into here and thats what we are going to be dealing with for today and tomorrow, definitely feel like were in the florida or Something Like that with the high humidity, mostly cloudy skies. In San Francisco reaching the low to mid70s the next couple of days, 101 today, still muggy tomorrow and hot up to 98 degrees and then some lower 90s in time for the weekend well shake that humidity too and mike has another look at that big rig crash in the east bay. Weve been following this all morning. Bob has been on the scene and so even though the original estimate was cleared by 6 30 weve been told and we had seen such quick progress but theres still hooking up this big rig making sure everythings secure and also clearing up that fuel spill so you see it moving over here. This is the offramp from northbound 238 at east 14th so that will be a distraction for these folks traveling along the freeway although you see them moving at a good clip there. Were not showing any major slowing. This is just off the Castro Valley y. I had worried about the slowing because of that distraction but its all right right now, very good, in fact. In fact, through hayward, mild slowing around toward the san mateo bridge, nothing spectacular for the rest of the bay. Theres the trivalley, the south basement the bay bridge toll plaza we have those metering lights on. Lets take you to waze. This is changed over the last hour. An hour ago the snaut bridge was your preferred route. The shift has gone to the dunbarton bridge because the san mateo shows that slowing, we showed you on both of these systems.
