It was an extensive effort to rescue this camel, who ran away not only once but twice from his home yesterday. It took the work of half dozen east bay cowboys to round up rudy back to safety. They used ropes to guide him back into his owners trailer yesterday afternoon. The camel broke free from his wire fence and walked south along bailey road. Rudy an unusual sight anywhere else is actually familiar in this neighborhood. The other day he was on our property which he went back easily so we figured it would probably be the same. Reporter hes known as the candle that kind of roams around . Yeah, he roams around. Reporter he walked around, cars swerving out of the way. Chp says a red minivan hit the camel but his owner says it was just a close call. Thankfully, no other drivers were hurt or anyone else in this process. A vet will check rudy to be sure he is okay. Back to you, frank. All right. Glad rudy is okay. Thanks so much, cate. Reporter higher speed limits are coming to san ramon. A sevenyear survey determined many speed limits in the city were just too slow and most drivers were already going faster than the posted limit. The hope is slightly higher speed limits will ease traffic congestion. I think people drive that fast, five or ten miles over the speed limit anyway. I dont see any accidents or anything so it doesnt concern me. Heres a look at the san ramon streets where the limits are to be raised. The new limits will take effect february 22.

One of the things that came up in our Strategic Planning for the city was a limitation of the city we do things because thats the way we have always done them.

No members of the public spoke against the proposal to make the pledge optional. Contract talks have begun between the city of san jose and the Police Officers association.

Thats a love tap but i bet thats not what they were saying when they were out there. Holy moly what the heck is that . A little scary out there. 5 12 right now. We were talking whales and camels on the roads, elizabeth. Sort of in love with that rudy the camel. So sweet. I just love that little guy big guy. On the roads, nothing like camels to slow you down. In fact, not a whole lot going on out there. We have some areas of overnight roadwork still in lanes and the only spot is southbound 101 commuting through marin county from the waldo tunnel towards the Golden Gate Bridge. As you can see from these sensors, its not slowing you down much. So were still seeing all green towards doyle drive coming into San Francisco. Drive time 14 minutes between 580 and the toll plaza. Traffic is lighter than normal out of the Altamont Pass now. Drive time only 14 minutes all the way through livermore and then out towards the dublin interchange. And we have another camera approaching tassajara so the headlights are moving westbound and so far it looks okay all the way past 680 and the dublin interchange if you are heading into castro valley.

We have some big changes though coming. We have High Pressure sitting overhead for today but you can already see the system developing out of the gulf of alaska. Not a real wet system but its a cold one and cold enough snow levels could be dropping down to about 2500 feet especially like thursday night into friday morning. So looks like a big change in the weather. This drops into the bay area to make things possibly wet starting tomorrow. For today, though, couple of clouds early on. Through the day not too bad. Then overnight looks like clouds begin to gather and tomorrow morning a chance of some showers developing again not a whole lot of rain with this one just scattered showers and some much colder temperatures as we head throughout the day tomorrow. So it looks like we have some changes in the works. Enjoy the dry day today. 58 degrees in san jose. 58 in hayward, 55 in pacifica. East bay temperatures up in the 50s and also the 60s.

The white house is defending a memo from the department of justice authorizing drone attacks against americans working with terrorists overseas. The memo says such actions are legal under three conditions. If the suspect is engaged in Planning Operations to kill americans, if its not possible to capture the suspect before an attack, and if the operation follows u. S. Laws and war principles. Someone who takes up arms against the United States in a war against the United States is an enemy and therefore could be targeted accordingly. Critics say such an attack would violate the Constitutional Rights of american terror suspects to a trial by jury.
