Napa county is seeing a lot of rain, floods and mudslides. Kpix 5s jackie ward is live in American Canyon and jackie, you have some problems with getting to your story this morning. Reporter yeah. Just the third stop of the day for us. We had trouble getting from highway 29 at our original destination at the napa river. That diverted us with an accident there. Now on American Canyon road there is a mudslide. You can see a bunch of mud and dirt has slid into the road here. This is American Canyon. Its right by westbound 80. Not a lot of traffic delays, which is good. To be honest, our news van is kind of causing people to slow down a little bit but well be out of here in just a couple of minutes. A bunch of dirt and mud have been removed from here already. As you head westbound on American Canyon road, the only place you might snag up trafficwise is between broadway and highway 29. So that was the only area that we ran into trouble while traveling American Canyon road to get to this mudslide. Besides that you should be pretty good. This traffic is not a big deal. Just a couple of Police Officers here. See the Police Officer even getting his own shovel out trying to get this road cleared as soon as possible. Please, take it slow out there. A lot of flooding and hydroplaning and some mud, too, a mess out here. In American Canyon, jackie ward, kpix 5. Thank you. Crews are keeping an eye on conditions in sausalito.

Powerful winds and towering waves are expected to hit the peninsula and the wet conditions come just after crews in pacifica cleared up major storm damage along highway 1. Kpix 5 reporter anne makovec is live in pacifica on the concerns this morning. Anne . Reporter yeah. There is a Coastal Flood Advisory in effect for the coastline right now. So you add to that the high wind we have been seeing, the rain continues to fall. A lot of hillsides and cliffsides in the area are at risk this morning. So a lot of eyes on this Apartment Building on esplanade avenue. The cliff under it has been crumbling for years and the situation is so dire its slated to be torn down next week. The goal, to beat the forces of nature to the punch here because if this building falls into the ocean a lot of environmental concerns. Highway 1 here in pacifica finally reopened this morning after a mudslide shut down the northbound lanes yesterday. It took almost 24 hours to clean it up and shore up the hillside. This was very close to reina del mar and you can see the traffic jam it caused all day. Caltrans put up a concrete barrier overnight to protect the road from another deluge of debris. But a lot of concerns this morning focused specifically on the coast combining the weather conditions with that high tide which well see around 9 a. M. Were talking about 7 feet. So things could get dicey. Live in pacifica, im anne makovec. Lets check in with roqui right now for the latest on your morning commute. Roqui. Thanks, anne. It is 6 06. Lets take a look at our roads right now. Things are crazy. Its still very wet out there. So first lets start in observations at the bay bridge toll plaza. Those metering lights are on so that traffic is backing up towards the maze here. Also a high wind advisory across the span there so make sure youre driving slowly because of the winds and because of the rain. Two hands on the wheel giving yourself extra space between drivers. The maze to downtown will take you about 16 to 20 minutes. Now lets move over to the Traffic Alert in oakland. Westbound 24 before broadway its a twocar crash thats also involving a car fire and its blocking the three left lanes out there. Its causing a five mile backup into orinda and youre only moving at 16 Miles Per Hour. So if you can avoid this area, please do. And if you cant, give yourself a lot of extra time. Moving over now to northbound 680 in san ramon before crow canyon road this is an overturned car out there blocking a lane but not causing many delays. And if you are traveling along the Altamont Pass this morning get ready for the usual slow traffic coming out of tracy moving at 57 Miles Per Hour. Then you crawl along at 28 Miles Per Hour. So north tracy boulevard to the Altamont Pass will take 30 minutes on 580 westbound. I suggest you just avoid the roads today. This is only going to get worse. So bart is on time. Ace is on time. Muni is on time. And an update on the San Francisco bay ferry. 8 30 a. M.

Mudslides are also causing problems in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Chp officers shot this video along highway 17. This is near vine hill road. And a tv news van got caught under some rocks and mud. The driver is expected to be okay. And across Santa Cruz Mountains all this heavy rain isnt spelling more water from the tap. Thats because the newell creek pipeline ruptured during weekend storms.

Some Senate Democrats have expressed serious reservations about confirming alabama Jeff Sessions as attorney general. He was rejected for a federal judgeship years ago.

But this has to do with the time we were on the roads. Its all timing. Yes. People need to be careful out there this morning. Yes. All about timing is a good point because right now, if you are traveling on highway 17, you are going to be in some trouble. Highway 17 between vine hill road and sugarloaf road reduced to one lane in each direction and this is due to a mudslide from yesterday they are still trying to clean up. Northbound 17 to san jose youre at 27 Miles Per Hour. So i cant give you an alternate here because highway 9 is backed up, as well.

We saw it yesterday with this mudslide on highway 1 near reina del mar. Mud, dirt and rocks tumbled on the northbound lanes. And between the cleanup and shoring up the hill, it took almost 24 hours to get those lanes reopened. And there are not a lot of options for getting around highway 1 so traffic is backed up all along the peninsula coast all day long. You got all these parents, you got all these people dropping off kids and youll never get out. Theres a billion cars in line. Reporter yeah.

Ill send it to you. All right, roqui. Thank you. Today Board Members planning the George Lucas Museum are considering whether San Francisco or l. A. Should be the spaces future home. Mayor ed lee is trying his best to steer them away from southern california. Thats because lee says Treasure Island would be a great fit for the future museum. The site would cost 23 million and since the filmmakers plan died in chicago many in the bay area are hopeful. Still l. A. Is offering the lucas team 7 acres of downtown land for less and some on the board are wary about an island location. If they want to be sure that the building will withstand the rise as will the entire island, they are looking at some of the seismic performance of the building, um, some of the, um, geographic and and atmospheric conditions of being here on the bay. Mayor lee adds that a simple ferry trip would get people right over to the space. The 49ers are suing santa clara. The organization filed a lawsuit on friday claiming city leaders falsely accuse them of violating their contract. Now the team wants the city to sign a certificate saying no breaches ever happened. The lawsuit states, the city falsely accused the team of having failed to perform its obligations under the Stadium Management agreement despite the absence of any goodfaith basis for such charges. The dispute started last year when mayor lisa gillmor issued an audit for levis stadium finances. Confirmation hearings for president elect Donald Trumps cabinet picks start today. Alabama senator Jeff Sessions is the attorney general nominee. The republican vows to work with state and local Law Enforcement to dismantle gangs and prosecute those who repeatedly violate our borders. Some democrats are expressing reservations about sessions stance on immigration and past accusations of racism that prevented him from becoming a federal judge. This is a live look from capitol hill where the hearing for senator sessions is just getting under way. On saturday, the office of government ethics raised the alarm over the pace of the hearings. The director said his agency has yet to receive required disclosures for some of the president elects nominees. Democratic leader Chuck Schumer is calling for a delay in the nomination process. There is no real chance to vet these nominees. All these nominees are going to be approved because we are in the majority and they are not. So i think a lot of it is sour grapes. According to the office of government ethics, four nominees have not completed the ethics reviews. That includes two billionaires, betsy devos and the commerce secretary. 6 40.

Reporter thats a big if with the massive data breaches that yahoo disclosed after verizon made its 4. 8 billion deal to buy yahoos core web set. If it goes through it will be a Holding Company for yahoos massive investment in chinese e commerce alibaba worth about 36 billion. As a result altabas board will be cut in half and that means Ceo Marissa Mayer and four others will be off the board providing it goes through. A top level verizon executive said last week she couldnt guarantee one way or the other if deal will go through because of the massive data breaches. Alibabas ceo met with president elect trump at trump tower promising one million jobs will be created by alibaba in the u. S. In the coming five years. His idea is that provide incentives to american businesses and farmers things like user data, logistics capabilities it, will get them to sell their brands and products on alibaba and will create more demand for the products in asia and that will have those businesses expanding in order to meet that demand.

Youre driving at just 14 Miles Per Hour between the antioch pittsburg area so hillcrest avenue to 242 will take up to 30 minutes. So give yourself some extra time.

Thats off the road but you have residual backup into orinda moving at 45 Miles Per Hour through that area so if you can avoid it, that would be the better thing to do. But if not, give yourself some extra time here, too. Moving over to the bay bridge toll plaza, a lot of cars headed into downtown San Francisco. They will have to deal with high winds across the span. Now, the maze to downtown will take you about 17 to 20 minutes.
