Something to hold on to some positives and what hasnt been a whole lot of positives in the forecast lately, 50s and 60s for our current temperatures with concord at 62 oakland, 64 right now temperatures remaining cool obviously weve got some cloud cover thats going to keep it cool through the morning. Later on today, not that hot no 90s today, just upper 80s that are warmest a lot of 70s on the map. Im talking a very hot weekend just around the corner. Robin. Thank you john were checking back in on 6 ad the traffic is slowly improving but do expect some residual delays heading south this morning. All because of an earlier crash. It was southbound 6. 80 after stone valley. Emergency crews shut down the right lane. They issued a Traffic Alert. Its still a little sluggish often on out of walnut creek in fact ill switch over to a live look this is the camera well its a little frozen, but you can get the picture right. Its still a little slow going south as traffic is recovering from the crash. So everythings out of your now at 17 minutes from highway 4 out of danville will check in on the bay bridge coming up in just a bit darya back to you all right, thanks a lot. Lets start on the peninsula pacifica is closing all beaches in parking lots. It at the beaches this Holiday Weekend is they dont want crowd that they dont at all at all related to covid kron fours will tran on the story for us this morning out at the beach. And will what people need to know if they had plans to head there. They need to know come saturday sunrise they dont want you here they dont trust just telling you dont come because theyre taking away the parking lots from you so take away the parking lot as the beaches will have full enforcement from saturday sunrise until tuesday sunrise so that wipes out Labor Day Weekend for a lot of people they did this a memorial day weekend. They took away the parking lots, but a lot of people park in the nearby neighborhoods and they still flocked to pacifica beaches and heres video we have proof of it i remember being youre telling people they didnt lie here, but so many people did it anyways because of covid19 they dont want people being too close to each other. So now theyre taking away those 2 things and it worked because on the 4th of july when they did both those things the number of people showing up to pacifica beaches that number dramatically decreased and this follows what governor gavin newsom has said that its this little gatherings that people think are safe. Whether or not safe, especially with covid19 obviously just the new norm for the entire world. If you thinking well thats q will i dont have to go to pacific i maybe go to santa cruz beaches thats not available to you either because theyre doing the same thing theyre taking away. The parking lots and the beaches in santa cruz, that of course is just of the Labor Day Weekend with so many people are off. But if you need to beat the heat dont worry about it pacifica is still a top choice for you, especially if you live nearby because they are allowing people to go hike. So long as you wear a mask you practice social distance, but as far as coming down to the beaches that is not available to you not sure if they will crack down on you make your get you in trouble yella you write a ticket, but the bottom line is they dont want you here so let me follow this brady bunch theme, let me send it back to daria daria guard what how marcia wait and see over here this year is here right there okay haha all right, thank you very much well.

The lnu complex fires that are burning up in the north bay. Were happy to say its now 74 contained 375,000 acres burned so far but containment is climbing the scu complex fires now 72 contained.

Welcome back as we make our way through the morning not a whole lot of clearing has occurred just yet. It is a mostly cloudy start to the day for sure instead of fog though its just low stratus clouds that are pushing right on over the bay keeping us cool keeping us pretty gray at this time timber on not a lot of sunlight just yet, san jose there is more sunlight to do something that shot. Shot can be a little spotty sometimes as far as what weve got right now for air quality you do have pockets of good air. Pockets of that era and thats exactly the way this forecast is going to go ahead of us will have times where air quality has improved like unconquered out to richmond, San Francisco and especially the north bay this morning. On the other side of things Mountain View, san Mateo Freeman hayward not so good for air quality in this area this morning. It all depends on wind direction and where it funnels that smoke so just check your air quality forecast as you step outside and enjoy what will actually be some pretty pleasant temperatures this afternoon with a High Pressure ridge in place were going to remain dry in this forecast. One thing were not going to remain though is as cool as were about to be today. We are in the midst of some ocean cool theyre being pushed inland, one of the reasons weve seen so much cloud cover this morning in the past few mornings that cloud cover a sign of the relief from the heat. We have just the opposite occurring saturday sunday into monday hot dry air from our inland valleys will now be drawn out to the coast. This means a big difference in temperatures. Id say enjoy these next 3 days as much as you can because a scorcher in a potentially record breaking hot weekend is just around the corner, 50s and 60s for your highs and San Francisco as well as right along the coastline. Again back to the 70s and burlingame no breakdown peninsula to Mountain View and palo alto in the mid 70s today, south bay temperatures upper 70s to low 80s for you with san jose right at 80 degrees milpitas in santa clara at 78 80s for the tri valley Fremont Union city and hayward in the 70s up to oakland also 70s. Well conquered 85, north bay temperatures, no 90s for you unlike yesterday with vacaville in the low 90s today falls to 89 so even cooler than yesterday was and we can be thankful for that we need some positives in this forecast after the past few weeks tomorrow and friday will continue to be pretty nice weather of course we have to watch out for the haze still pockets of it will be experience likely well through the Labor Day Weekend. Look at saturday sunday and monday triple digit heat returning inland hot near the bay and even getting warmer along the coastline with highs by sunday at the coast. Getting close to the 80s. Theres your forecast rob and also that year wait for our updated look at traffic. Thank you john and its Getting Better nice improvement right heading into San Francisco.

Lanes heres 92 looks pretty good right were down to 13 minutes from the east bay to the peninsula.

Thank you very much robin. Time now to talk winners and losers on wall street financial expert rob black joining us this morning as he always does rob good to see you. Always get beyond the games. I know we have the labor departments numbers coming out friday, but i think youve got a sneak peek at some of the hiring in august what your take on what youre seeing so far. I would say definite slowdown in the last 2 months obviously when we shut down the economy in march april we lost a lot of jobs. A little more than half of them have come back. But the pace of them coming back at this point in time is starting to slow. We should throw some caution flags on what we do with stock market is jobs and the most important things like you said fridays reports to getting one loss as we see what the Unemployment Rate is 10 is not a good number. He needed to back down to 46 . Some time in 2021. Some time in tentative thats the big question mark is it will when will the economy rebound is that after a vaccine have it because i guess it all comes down to when people feel comfortable enough to go out in large crowds and do the kind of shopping that we you know were used to doing. Kind of shopping lets have out about the super bowl were going to fans at the super bowl this year right that would be a very good sign. The economy if we do that. Now i see him getting a little bit ahead of myself, especially in california, ah, yeah, no doubt ok so more on that to come well watch that as that trend continues to play out.

Advertising on tv is down about 70 which is shocking from 25 Million Dollars which means the network tv companies are doing ross.
