This statement that the person who is repeatedly defacing the sign has made is not only do we not support the black lives matter community, but you are not welcome here weve been engaging as much discourse is possible. But you know in a strange way the debasement of the sign has really prompted a lot more people who probably wouldnt speak up. Im to come out and voice their opinions and to share you know opposing believes so its been constructive as well. Theres been numerous protests in downtown crocketts supporting the black lives matter movement. Some residents hope that this will spark an open and peaceful dialogue.

Yeah its a its kind of think this morning going on here good morning. Marty good morning, everybody, happy t g i f were getting the same thing here from shot we have from u c berkeley. The shrubbery here we usually can see that fairly clear but even this morning thats kind of blocked out as you can see and the light up that we would see along the east bay shoreline forget about it so theres the shot marty was just talking about the Golden Gate Bridge to the towers completely gone so and a little drizzle to coming across this little windshield wiper action just enough to mess up the carbon. Temperatures we have the upper 50s lower 60s over most of the real estate, 62 50 were 61 rather 50s cover, mostly everybody else except one the east bay shoreline in redwood city there at 65 future cast for doesnt have too much to see now you can see obviously the lower level marine layer both of monterrey and up here the bay area going forward. Yeah that clears out. But what happens as we get into tomorrow, maybe a few little stray clouds through the system dropping south dont forget to sun is going to be much cooler so well get a little bit in the way some scattered clouds late in the day on saturday. Then a shot of some cooler air in here comparatively speaking for your sunday, so it could be like a mini cool down. And then we warm up a little bit as we get into next week. But for today we do see little up tick in those winds happening again in the afternoon hours. Those inland areas look at what than theyre pretty good there up the tri valley also Contra Costa County in the delta Solano County as well. This is going to linger well into saturday morning. So thats going to cause the marine layer to come back again spill that fog but may not make it as well east as it did this morning heat spike last call the Solano County heat advisory that will be with us until saturday at 8 for today morning fog and then clearing out mild to warm with 70s and 80s we call that off as we head into the weekend within the highs falling below 80 on sunday.

The southbound central freeway connector to 80 east as you head toward the eastbound skyway or the lower deck. Theres a crash there on that connector thats blocking so crews are working to get that out of your way, but its still not a major hot spot, lets check in on 92, we want to take a peek at the san mateo bridge which has been stocking up for the last hour hour and a half so yes, quite busy leaving hayward under the limit on the flat section.
