Pg e reported wind gusts of 77 Miles Per Hour in Sonoma County and 75 Miles Per Hour in Contra Costa County during these shutoffs w more than 100 incidents of damage or hazards within the affected areas. The cpuc, this Commission Still wants executives to publicly address any mistakes or operational issues at todays meeting to make sure more importantly these issues dont pop up again.

[ speaking in Foreign Language ] tea, the whole night. So forgive my stuffy nose. I will do my best not to snivel too much. Right now san jose 52 degrees. The wind calm and its beautiful outside, in terms much the skies were pretty clear. Lets look at the temperatures throughout the entire bay area. Its chilly through santa cruz, 48 degrees. 46 in san martin. As kris said, woke up to sheen on the roadways, a little bit of rain. It was kind of nice. We had a cold front that passed through and also made for some windy conditions, some breezy conditions especially around the coastline. Look at satellite radar. We have a second front expected to drop down tonight which could mean the chance of seeing some more rain but mainly for the far north bay. Not everybody is going to get rain from this. Another thing were noticing the waves are starting to kick up so there is a High Surf Advisory that will remain in effect through tonight. The largest hazards are always going to be the rip currents and the sneaker waves along the coastline so be careful if you are going to the beach, maybe not the best time to get in the water although i do know that surfers definitely love to see that high surf, just be careful out there. Microclimate highs today in the 60s for San Francisco, 65, oakland 69. San jose 70 degrees, so no big changes in the temperatures once again, a cool comfortable afternoon. Your weather setup for the next couple of days, breezyith a chance of rain mainly mainly for the north bay through saturday morning some high clouds and the morning fog around the coastline and then by next week, im talking late next week it will start turning dry and hot as High Pressure returns and the winds are going to kick up and well be monitoring once again for fire danger concern. Monday, tuesday and wednesday well get the upper 80s and the winds expected to kick up by thursday. Any time we have wind and dry conditions, the elevated fire danger kicks in. So again, as we head in toward saturday and sunday well get that morning fog, 67 degrees. By sunday probably the clearest day. Not a lot of cloud cover expected sunday, a little cloud cover expected through tomorrow. Mike, how are the roads . Trying to recover from seeing the 80s on the forecast, my gosh. The roads are looking great, a live look at oakland and wood debris reported, i dont know what kind of wood but this is oakland and north 880 around broadway. Chp took one sweep through the area, they were not impacted but someone was concerned enough to call about it in your left two lanes. Well take another sweep and track that. No major problems just north of the coliseum. I see a little slowing that did pop up, someone may have slowed down already from that earlier issue and then maybe it cleared as cars hit the wood, tends to happen with smaller pieces. The rest of the bay shows an easy drive. Were showing you down to the south bay, right there the trivalley, thats over at Pleasanton Sunol off of eastbound 84 just off 680 a crash that did guardrail damage earlier today and the department of transportation is there no pu. Ale see if they have to close any lanes. None reported there. The bay bridge toll plaza has just a few folks waiting in the cash lanes, traditional as they havent yet opened all the cash lanes but no major issues right now. Thats good. Thanks, mike. Today we wrap up our coverage as we take a final look back at the 30th anniversary of the loma prieta earthquake. Weve been talking about the loss and destruction in parts of our infrastructure but the bay bridge and the cypress structure werent the only freeways that were impacted. Mike inouye has been talking about this, a lot of people forget about the central freeway in San Francisco. The central freeway is centrally located. This is the freeway that used to cut from highway 101 basically up across the city, and over here were looking at aerial shots of another one over at the top corner now as weve taken this panning view, the embarcadero freeway. That one made a drive coming off of the bay bridge and curling around, went up to the embarcadero. You see the tower, you see the bay bridge and the tower in the foregrou foreground, thats the Ferry Building and the double decks in front of it, completely blocked the view, completely forgotten visual in my mind until we started talking about the memories and i realized my gosh, there used to be these two freeways there. It blocked the view of the Ferry Building and that was an issue. Let me show you on the traffic maps, this is as folks are getting off the bay bridge, well show you that both decks were closed. Multideck freeways of course were close there had. We have some other video and maybe that wasnt in the system but well talk about it. Both of the freeways the central freeway and embarcadero freeway were closed after the collapse of 880. Here is the shot. Getting off the bay bridge we have the purple route took you toward the embarcadero area. Thats gone. You have to hit city streets which takes you along 101 and van ness and over to lombard. Thats your solution toward the two freeways that were destroyed, had to be destroyed. They werent destroyed in the earthquake as we talked about, cypress, the bay bridge, those two major freeways were the ones that were damaged but the other two multideck freeways there was concern over them so we had to close them after the freeway and it was years later that they were destroyed, but now look at this, as a result of that embarcadero freeway taken down we can see this beautiful clock tower and the beautiful view of the Ferry Building. Up until the freeway was destroyed, we couldnt see a look at that beautiful architecture and for folks familiar with the Ferry Building theres the plaza here with the trains running through it, that was completely blocked by this multistory basically looked like a parking structure but it was a roadway. Also the central freeway being taken down, we also had opportunities for things like here in hazen valley, this is patricias green, a park and this is one, two, a bunch of other displays that have been there. Weve been talking about those, came over from burning man or coachella and other installat n installations there. Changed clearly the look of San Francisco but also made it a little difficult to get through the city. You cant just go that one route anymore. Thats right. There are two freeways that were going to help you cut through the city. Scott and i were talking about the other day, San Francisco is the only major metropolitan city that doesnt have a freeway that allows to you bypass it. It was a huge concern. Chinatown used to see a lot of traffic coming off the embarcadero and others take to you civic center and that was a big adjustment, huge adjustment. You saw the quality of life, the Ferry Building and the hayes valley expansion and other green parkways and views and access to the beauty of the city. While it is a pain, ill be honest, to get through the city, 19th avenue, van ness are crowded, it is a beautiful city to live in partly because of the rebirth after the earthquake. Moving here, a lot of people say there was a freeway that was right here and youre like why would anybody put one there . I thought that. Like its prime real estate, a beautiful view that we should all get to share. A lifelong resident of the bay area, i went away for school but this is my home and i completely forgot that was there in the 30 years since or in the 20 years since it was taken down. Oh my gosh.
