Cinda jose looking really nice and clear as also are you out in the east bay towards mount diablo beautiful Crystal Clear start to the morning. So quite the range from the fog to the sunshine. Its that pretty usual way to start off your morning depending on where youre at foggy conditions in the berkeley and Oakland Hills out to the peninsula while much of the rest of the bay area pretty clear were not going to stay that way today were going to clear out into the afternoon but early on into the afternoon there is going to be a push a fog over the peninsula back into the east bay, this is going to be a big change from yesterday to close out the day when it was sunny and warm the way to sunset last night thats not going to be the case tonight were going to see a nice cool down with that russia fog thats going to push inland.

There is water just pouring down from the ceiling on to the platform onto the tracks. They have crews out there with mops literally just mopping this water up but as of right now trains are not stopping at the embarcadero station you cannot get honor off at a bar coderre on San Francisco. This is a major problem, its a lot of water so this is going to impact your commute between San Francisco and mostly the east bay so make sure you plan ahead once again, severe flooding at the embarcadero station in San Francisco, causing some major bart delays this morning.
