The coast. Heavy rain on highway 1. And occasionally, bursts of moderate to heavy rain but were waiting on the system. Its warmer and its going to set the stage for what looks to be a rainy tuesday and wednesday. Cloudy, mild, off and on rain. And warmer temperatures, thats for sure. Well be in the midto a few upper 50s. Rain will be the big story. All right, sal, how is the traffic . Its crowded. Not the same as it has been. You and i have had time off. And i noticed the traffic was lighter over the holiday period. Looks like a lot of people are back and you can get back to your regular prechristmas routine. Its backed up to the macarthur maze. And once you make it to the bridge it looks good. Were looking at i8 80 and we have a little bit of slow traffic and a little bit of rain, the traffic is okay but the rain has been coming down. And were looking at the east bay freeways. And westbound 24 looks okay. And so does 880 northbound getting up to the macarthur maze. Southbound 80 at 10
The bay bridge. The day started off mostly cloudy with light rain moving in by midmorning. We turn now to ktvu meteorologist mark tamayo with a look at the radar. This will be a very active first half of january, very active in the bay area. Rainfall totals today, not everybody picked up rainfall. The focus was up in the north bay. See the numbers out toward guerneville, 0. 33. Santa rosa around a quarter of an inch. Sebastopol, tapering off. San francisco only reporting 0. 01, barely measurable. That was the first wave pushing on shore early this morning and into portions of the afternoon. On the satellite, radar right now, another batch of rainfall just offshore. In fact, right now, closer look, you see the yellows showing up near the Santa Cruz County coastline. With that, organized rainfall here for parts of the bay area and well work this map up to the north and the coverage increasing as well. In fact, the distance from ocean beach, as we take a look at that, within about 10 mile
To be offshore. Really, its just a light rain. Coast and bay more so than inland. Theres a decent cell by san leandro. The next system is coming. This is the energy were waiting for. The next couple of systems will have a lot more energy. Cloudy, mild, off and on rain. And were looking at 50s, upper 50s for some. A far cry from what we had the last two weeks of december. Were going to be the rain brothers, arent we . Very much so. Im ready. Thank you, steve. A commute on the east shore freeway is looking pretty good. 17 minutes. Thats not bad. I dont think its going to stay that way. A lot of people are back and the commutes will not be like last week. Its going to ramp up and it might ramp up a lot today as you can see this morning. Lets take a look at the bay bridge toll plaza. Thats backed up. And for the most part its okay as you drive there with no major problems. 680 through walnut creek and concord. And highway 4 showing a little bit of slow traffic. But the rest of it looks goo
Day. We have the music director, and taking a live look at the backyard, the gorgeous oakland, clouds and rain in the diet, and back to reality it is. The british r b band band from 1989. I remember that, i was around. You were still taking a nap in kindergarten. It is good for us to be back. We have to work and pay the bills. Back to work and backto school for so many, and we hope you are back in your morning routine. We talked a lot about the 49ers big move, firing the head coach jim tomsula. I dont think this was a surprise to the fans or two jim tomsula himselfato jim tomsula himself. And we have the big choice, the head coach of the new orleans saints. And tomorrow, weatherwise, bringing in steve, and he says to wait till tomorrow. We will be very busy tomorrow, that is correct. That was a good one, alex taking naps in 1989. This first system will be the first of many systems, and tuesday and wednesday will have much stronger systems, and we get a few breaks behind this first syst
Week. Rainfall amounts wont be that heavy but theyll pick up big time tuesday to wednesday. Thats when we start to see a couple inches begin to develop. Cloudy and mild and off and on rain. And warmer temperatures. Mid50s to a few upper 50s. Havent seen these in a long time. 4 31. So far not too bad but theres a little rain. Im just wondering what its going to be like. Today is off and on rain as you said. But when its really rainy. Its going to be a tough commute. Good morning steve and everyone. 23 youre driving right now its wet as you heard steve say. Off and on rain today. And that means that you might encounter some on the morning commute. The bridges look good. If youre driving from oakland to San Francisco its light. And looking at the san mateo bridge and traffic looks good. Speaking of the peninsula and highway 101. 101 through palo alto is good all the way to san jose. And traffic in the Santa Clara Valley is good. Heres a look at the top stories were following for you this
