It looks as though our warming trend really gets going again today with a little bit milder weather at the coast. We will detail the rest of the weekend in a few minutes. Katie. Lisa, thank you. And there appears to be no end in sight for traffic woes across the bay area. Bart and the union remain at odds. We have a report on how it is i am pocketing traffic. Reporter this is a line of cars wait to go get to the bay bridge about 8 00. It was a crawl all afternoon and through the evening. It takes me about 35 minutes. Literally two miles from here. How long it it take you . About 45 to an hour. To avoid the traffic backup, lots of people tried getting out of the city early. With no bart trains running, the afternoon commute turned into an evening odyssey. I could see the traffic from my office going over the bridge. Its more getting on to the bridge, which takes a long time. For casual carpoolers, it made for a long wait to get home. Usually its about 30 minutes to get home. Its usually not bad but it doesnt look like its going to be 30 minutes today. Plenty of drivers stopped by to pick up a few passengers going their way across the bay, but it wasnt easy for some to get to the designated pickup spot. I went to the old carpool section and one lead in a muni thing directed us over here. And this bus carried 25 ridetories the east bay. They described a day that beganner and stretched on until late. Ity to leave about 4 00 in the morning. Commuters are dreading the repeat of this come monday. Abc7 news. Hundreds of commuters waited in long lines at the transbay terminal in San Francisco to board buses home yesterday afternoon. Ac transit, sam transand even bart added buss to help with the extra load of passengers. It was a similar sight at the ferry terminal. Long lines during the morning and afternoon commutes. San Francisco Bay ferry said their ridership numbers more than doubled yesterday. Ferry service will also be increased this weekend. There seems to be a glimmer of hope when the unions said they had a proposal to end the bart strike immediately, but its a nonstarter as far as bart management is concern. Allen wong explains why. Reporter the unions are offering to call off the strike if bart grease to let an arbitrator decide the issue thats causing the stalemate. Bart rejected the offer. The issue is workplace rules. For years they have protected workers, but bart said they are outdated and need to be changed in order to save money so they can use it to pay for the salaries and benefits the workers want. For instance, maintenance workers who do inspections are not allows to use ipads and send information directly to the computers. Instead they are required by the contract to write handwritten notes. The unions say gutting the workplace rules would give bart too much power. But unless bart can gain that flexibility, they said there is no deal. We can fight long and we can fight hard. Whats motivating us to end the strike is the suffering that we hear. Its been a long day . Yeah. 6 30 this morning until now. Right now its about 8 00. I get home about 8 30. Bart wants the union to let their members vote on their offer, but the union said no. In oakland, allen wong, abc7 news.

Bart workers remain on strike this morning. There are mow talks scheduled no talks scheduled as of now. The union offered a new proposal in an attempt to settle the dispute and get the trains moving. This plan would allow us to reach an agreement without going back to the bargaining table, and therefore it would allow us to end the strike immediately upon signing. Bart management responded to the Union Proposal about 90 minutes later. In response to the Union Leaders statement tonight, bart would welcome an end to the strike. The Union Leaders letter, though, is a repeat of the same unacceptable offer they made at the bargaining offer yesterday before the Union Leaders ordered members to walk off the job. Bart wants to be able to file reports, send documents and paycheck stubs electronically. Bart also wants to be able to change the way it schedules workers. The union say it needs to protect Worker Rights that would be affected by the rule changes. But they say they are willing to he is partial binding arbitration to settle the issue. Some workers are planning to dodge traffic if the strike continues next week by not commuter at all. Their companies allow them to work from home. Business and Technology Reporter david loui shows us an example. You can see by the smile on my face im happy i dont have to deal with the nightmare traffic today. Reporter bill normally takes bart to downtown San Francisco to work for a tech startup. But this is his office here in his living room e works for a Software Company that gave their software writes the option to avoid the gridlock the strike created. I am still going to weak up at the same time but instead of getting ready for the workday and going to bart, ill just start working, making phone calls, using tools hike im using right now to speak with you. However, his boss, ceo louis, doesnt plan on working from home to be a longterm option.

Its been six months since the exploratorium reopened in the new location on San Franciscos waterfront. The handson museum has had record attendance and is wellknown for a great place for kids and fam less. But one of its biggest Success Story is the adultsonly program with seven time more nighttime visitors than in the old building. Dan ashley checked it out. Reporter this is thursday night at the exploratorium where you can find fun, science, even romance. And not necessarily in that order. The only limitation is you must be 18 and older. Thats turned out to be a big draw. Im having a great time. Reporter exhibits usually swamped with kids are full of adults. And liquor served all over the museum and you have a party. It seems like a lot of people that come off of work are flooding here. This line is for freestyle bar, alcohol and a meal in a glass. You choose the ingredients. Fruits, vegetables and some people are brave and doing pork. A little risky so the bartender is tasting before he serves. And they are experts. The evening programs are called after dark and happen every thursday. But on the first thursday theres special shows and a lot of extra activities. This one starts with cornstarch and water. When combined, this is a fluid and you move around quickly and it acts as a solid. But slowly liquid. Its really a strategy to get adults excited about engaging with the exhibits themselves and to gain some confidence. Tonight we are doing an arcade. We are playing some pong and we are inviting people to build their own controllers. Thats a new technology called a makeymakey. May the best controller win.

Cold in San Francisco. Colder in the north bay. 50 here, 37 in novato. A lot colder. But we have fog along the coast right now. You are looking at clear conditions.

We will talk about the weather and help people bundle up if they are headed out. The lows have been cool, 30s and 40s to 70s and 80s in the afternoon. The big question is for the weekend is it going to change . If you look hard you can see fog along the coast. Weve been in this pattern of dry and mild weather for the past several weeks. October is traditionally a pretty dry month. About an inch of rain is average for the month in San Francisco. We really havent seen that. We are stuck in this pattern. So if you like what weve had the past couple days and weeks, you will like today and the weekend. 48 in San Francisco. 50 san carlos, as well as san jose with Half Moon Bay coming in at 48. Theres fog anywhere from a quarter mile visibility in the Half Moon Bay, santa rosa. Over the water we are look agent some of the stratus hugging the shoreline. The exploratorium camera looking pretty good. 37 in novato. 51 livermore. Concord is at 48. Heres the foggy golden gate. This is extending anywhere from 500 to 700 feet and its right on the coast. It should be burning back throughout the midmorning hours. Then we will see another mild to warm day. That will last through tomorrow. Making the weekend pretty pleasant. But cooler weather arrives by the middle of next week. We are looking at some changes in the next three to five days. But the short term High Pressure still kits offshore. It is really protecting the eastern pacific, allowing for really nice averages. Although the days are short, we do warm up to just slightly above average readings. Heres a look at san jose for the week ahead. We should see about 74 for the high. And for today we are will being in the upper 70s to near 80 tomorrow. Then by early next week we are looking at temperatures slowly dropping. The coolest numbers coming in by about wednesday and thursday. By the end of next week, it does look cooler. Whether or not we will see any rain, we still have to finetune that. So across the state with sunshine from north to south. Los angeles warms to 85. Fresno in the upper 80s with 70 in monterey. So nice and mild with the fog away from the shoreline. 83 in chico with 74 in reno. So temperatures ranging from the upper 60s Half Moon Bay. And stinson beach, 70 San Francisco. Oakland 78 today with low 80s in san jose. Santa cruz 74. 83 concord and 82 in napa. So if you are headed down the coast, watch out for the traffic. But a beautiful afternoon down around Half Moon Bay for the pumpkin festival. Temperatures starting out a little cool. Noontime, mid60s. Near 70 by later on in the afternoon with a light sea breeze.
