have light rain falling, the bay bridge toll plaza. that commute looks good at the bay bridge there with no metering lights yet. a nice steady stream of traffic. we do have reports westbound 80 at powell street of a stalled vehicle in the middle lanes, so heads up on that. some cars are coming in hot there and we don t want to have it be anything major so hopefully they ll get that pushed out of the way. slowing up over the altamont pass with rain coming down. we do have a solo spinout near alexander approaching the golden gate bridge not in lanes but is up against the guardrail there and we do have a sig alert with this. a vehicle versus a semi. the vehicle caught fire. only the left lane is getting by eastbound near pedrick between dixon and davis and the sig alert in effect until further notice. thank you, sue. some scary membersries for sought north bay fire victims. abc news caught up with one family in sonoma county. this used to be their twtw home. they and 19 ot

have two systems converging. the deeper moisture will be funneled up here. remember we had a system in october producing a lot of rain. i think this might do the same to the north but not so much to the south. cloudy with light rain this morning but we are having some more picking up to the north. 50s for your temperatures and down south toward monterey there was a little bit of rain. we are focusing on the system to the north but it has a ways to go. mostly 60s for your temperatures. on friday we have fewer people on the roads. may be 10% less and it makes a big difference. on the macarthur maze it might look crowded but you will be waiting to get to the bridge. two days ago i was circling this at 77 minutes. now it is 35. so it is not too bad but it is a little slow driving from carquinez bridge to this point. when you get to the macarthur maze the timer starts over. after those 35 minutes you have to wait 20 more minutes to get to the bridge and then you are on the bridge
