maybe some shower activity toward the sierra nevada. 58 in san francisco to start. we'll go 63. looks pretty stuck to me. low 50s for many. temperatures have not moved much. the gust has been up and been holding steady. the gray is in place and that's going to give us a below normal day on the temps. a lot of clouds. the fog deck may be slow to burn back. upper 70s for many or very low 80s. 60s closer to the waters edge. we have traffic in the east shore. we keep coming back to that because of the accident. it took them 30 minutes to clear it. here on ashby. 32 minutes which as you know is a little up there for this commute. usually we're in the 18 to 20 minute mark and right now it's obviously more than that. please give yourself extra time when you get to the bay bridge there's going to be a little bit of waiting as well. although it's only 25 minutes, so it's improved a little bit since we first started. as you look at the commute near hayward, 880 southbound is slow approaching eighth street and tenison. we have a lot of slow traffic here already. we have the drive times up from grant line road to the 680 interchange it's taking 40 minutes. now let's go back to the desk. thank you,sal. 7:03. we're following developing news where a plane crash happened. alex sadvige just talked to the marin county firefighters and joins us with more on this crash. >> reporter: the sheriff lieutenant can confirm that at the very least the pilot of this plane was in fact, killed in this crash late last night. right now invest bay -- investigators are trying to figure out if there was anyone else in this plane. the single engine plane was flying from oregon to a small airport in novato where it went down. this is where it went down. just on the other side of this hill is where the plane crashed. this is just off of hicks valley road. and that crash touched off a good size brush fire. hopefully we can show you some of that video here as marin county fire fighters work to get that fire under control earl this many morning. at last check the fire burned 40 acres. while fighting those planes that's when authorities found the wreckage of this plane that had been missing. one person found dead inside the wreckage. crews had been searching for the single engine beach sized plane since last night. that's when the pilot reported to the faa that the plane was having engine problems. authorities were able to track the plane to this area using radar. just after midnight, sheriff deputies who were driving around this area spoted the brush fire at first o first and that ultimately led to the discovery of the plane's wreckage. again we understand this small plane was on its way from oregon to naas field in novato when it crashed. and the area where it crashed is 7 miles west of the airport. we understand both the ntsb and faa will be involved in this investigation. and at the same time, fire crews are still working to gain full control of that brush fire right now it is only about 50% contained. we'll continue to monitor the situation here in marin county. alex savidge. a celebration of life is planned this saturday for a 36- year-old man who died in a rock

red it is from richmond to the berkeley area. you can see for yourself. traffic is still slow as you drive into berkeley it's a 32 minute drive in all from the cardenas bridge to mcarthur. the

san joaquin valley heading out to the sierra nevada. the low which we show you yesterday which dropped down the coast. it is influencing the cloud bank. inland to morgan hill is getting drizzle. that tells us it's going to be cooler. you can either thank or blame this low. let's give it credit it's here and that seems to be the cloud cover wrapping around, it's close. you can probably see if we're out toward eastern solano and santa clara. it's taking a more east and south over us. the morning drizzle, light rain. misty conditions. cloudy to mostly cloudy. only a few breaks there. the low will continue to work its way south toward big surh. have lunch and then it will move off to the valley. looks like it will eject to nevada tomorrow. the stage is set, the damage is done for a cool cool day. 64 and we'll go 68. temperatures coming in below average for everyone here. 50s and 60s currently. i think they've been there all morning long because of the cloud cover. a southerly breeze for santa rosa. west for sfo even to livermore. 69 sacramento. low clouds into sacramento, sacramento valley that means they'll cool down along with that very strong delta breeze. so a lot of clouds it'll be cooler today. morning drizzle a little breezy, windy at times and temperatures 60s, 70s and a couple of 80s here. 72 kentfield. 82 antioch. livermore at 79. they should be closer to 87. 65 alameda.

going right down the coast has picked up that fog bank and the depth of it is 3,000 feet. so there's plenty o -- to go when you pick up this kind of a system. san jose will start off mostly overcast. we'll go 77 today. that could be as we say a soft 77. 50s and 60s, 57 napa, 59 fairfield. san jose low 60s. livermore low 60s. higher clouds might decide to heat up. for us there's a lot of low clouds and it'll be cool. breezy to windy at times. very low 80s even well inland. 50s closer to the water. >> we do have a look at interstate 280 in san jose. and we have some slow traffic there as you come up from downtown. and are trying to drive into sunny vale or cupertino. it has been pretty slow and i can show you the map of the south bay where traffic is going to be busy on 280 but 85 is much

south it will turn inland. drizzle, lots of drizzle or mistment some of that has been measurable. still keeping partly to mostly cloudy. cooler and breezy. i don't think this is high enough. some of those could sneak back in because you can see the low as it slides back. it could come back into the valley and wrap it back in. that will likely be more the east bay and santa clara not the north bay i don't think. it sets us up for a day of cool weather not only today but into tomorrow so it dives into the san joaquin valley. then it should head out toward novato. it's generating its own cloud cover. drizzle, partly to mostly cloudy. there's a few breaks but many areas say cloudy. they did at 5:00 a.m. in fact. morning drizzle giving way to partly sunny, partly cloudy skies. we're slow to

this fog. looks like a lot of that sphaoáufing -- looks like a lot of that fog is moving out of the picture. some of that moving back around. some of that sometimes can sneak in from the east. but the fog is in place and the reports of drizzle and mist were widespread. now there's been some clearing to the north and as this low drops south it'll go down to around santa barbara and head out by the next 24 hours it should be out of the picture. then we'll see temperatures slowly recovering. but 50s, 60s here. looks like a very cool day for some well away from the coast and even by the coast. the delta breeze is there. point rays 60. so that does not allow some of the coastal temps even though there was all that fog they still stay in the hour 60s. you can see a lot of that higher cloud deck stays east and south. morning drizzle might stick around for a while here. a little breezy to windy at times. 60s, 70s and low 80s. these are far far below average. it'll be back tonight and tomorrow night not as extensive. tomorrow morning, thursday, friday, saturday more of a northwest direction as we go into the weekend and maybe a little cooler by sunday. time is now 8:51. i'll paint the

the big name celebrities who have taken part. the challenge helped raise $15 million over the past three weeks alone for als compared to less than 2 million during the same time period last year. a benefit in the hamptons took an unusual turn when two political heavyweights went head to head on the dance floor. all right the video is a little shaky but that man there is former presidential
