The afternoon wakeup planner shows you that will as we continue to work our way through the morning were just going to get warmer and warmer and are all the sunshine and eventually will be in the 70s and 80s but amid a calm and sunny afternoon. Robin very nice. Thank you. John were checking in on the traffic and we do have a backup on southbound one oh one leaving the north bay, its because of this crash right here south 1 one after North San Pedro still active still blocking some pretty heavy out of iran would into sandra fill and then when you make it to the Golden Gate Bridge. Its going to be fine after the crash. But thats why a drive time is a whopping 48 minutes right now because of the crash and i just showed you on southbound one on one, but once again the bridge itself looks really good with no problems here heading across the span were checking in on the bay bridge toll plaza taking a little peek at 80 west, a huge improvement a minor weights right there in the middle but earlier you were stacked up from so thats no longer the case 12 minutes to make it into San Francisco thats good well check more bridges coming up back to you thanks a lot robin, i know on our top story more bay area counties are able to loosen up because theyre changing. Into the moderate risk for covid as you can see an orange chair, yes, so obviously widespread is the worst weve got Sonoma County there. And then we had contra costa marin and san mateo counties in the pink which is substantial, but they have now been elevated to moderate which means more businesses can now start to reopen governor Sarah Stinson is live in San Mateo County with the latest hows it going there sarah. Well were seeing a lot of progress here in San Mateo County were seeing 3 cases per 100,000 people what that means is that we can loosen restrictions and thats what happened at midnight, you know were so used to Outdoor Dining but now we can take this dining indoors at 50 capacity thats big, but are people ready to do so well have to see to look at your screen to see what other restrictions loosened at midnight not only dinein restaurants but churches museums movie theaters malls can all reopen at 50 capacity gyms at 25 Family Entertainment centers like bowling alleys also at 25 bars and breweries not serving food, however have to stay outdoors nonessential offices can reopen but remote work is still in courage. Festivals nightclubs live theater still closed. All businesses reopening further must take precaution and follow state guidelines of course have been talking to a lot of people downtown san mateo today and theyre telling me that theyre not quite ready to do things indoors yet they like the outdoor type of activities Outdoor Dining and theyre saying you know i think im going to stay clear of that for now. Im still not comfortable myself going indoors to restaurants. But thats a personal choice and i well big kid so people have to make those decisions based on science based on information. So every person ive talked to says you know im glad that were reopening im glad that were seeing progress however, im just not comfortable yet so i think people are happy to see that Indoor Dining gyms are starting to reopen. Theyre just not quite ready themselves theres other people who are taking advantage this and well be excited to do so and thats totally fine you just have to do whats most comfortable for you as we head into the holidays make sure your you know remaining vigilant and youre staying on track and youre doing everything you can to stay safe and. Stop the spread of coronavirus thats truly important as we try and continue to create progress in reopening. Reporting live in san mateo Sarah Stinson back to you, thanks a lot sarah. All right time now is 9 o 4 and in the east bay as we mentioned a lot of businesses there in Contra Costa County can also start to breathe a sigh of relief because like what we saw in san mateo contra costa is also in the orange here now which means more businesses, especially restaurants can start to operate indoors with up to 50 capacity. And yes, while easing restrictions will help with the local economy. We have local Health Leaders in the county theyre saying covid night 19 obviously is nothing they can ignore it is still a real threat. I just want to remind people we got here by being vigilant we got here by doing things like wearing our masks washing your hands, staying home and we werent feeling. Well, avoiding large groups and thats how he got her number so low, so my only had only message is we got here by doing these very simple things we need to keep our guard up we need to be vigilant. Well marine county in the north as we mentioned is the other county that was just recently moved to the orange moderate covid19 tear yesterday. Another big story that were following danville is not going to let people gather in the streets on the weekends Effective Immediately up to this point they had shut down a certain section of the street of and kept cars out so that restaurants could then take over the streets or dining and it was going well so long as people socially distance and wear masks, yeah, and now apparently thats not the case kron fours will tran is live in danville taking a look down and lets see what situation is in danville well. And this is whats going to happen moving forward, you see all these cars going by james and area they are not going to shut down the streets any longer they thought by shutting down this particular stretch that there would be room for people to walk around and for the restaurants and practice, 6 feet of social distance instead, they could not leave well alone. This is on harts avenue and you can see so many restaurants here. They are shutting it down years a map for you just off at 6. 80 between diablo and prospects of just one city streets, one city block and it open up back in june and i got to tell you guys i was year in july june and july and it was act but at that time people were practicing ship social distance, the city didnt have a problem with it but moving forward they started the seat fights. They started to see restaurants, not obeying social distance not enforcing it. They kept telling the restaurants youve got to do better the restaurants kept telling them. Yes, we will do better we will try to do better and ultimately according to the city. They did not then they saw covid19 cases on the rise as well so they said enough isnt enough and that is why moving forward. They are not going to shut off the street cars will be allowed to go through. We got a chance to talk to a danville resident earlier this morning. Heres his reaction when he saw so many people its such a small place and i walked into one of the local restaurants. Thats a bar. To use the restroom when i walked in there there a lot of people in there. I mean shoulder to shoulder like the good ol days and nobody was wearing a mask and i thought that was quite surprising considering that as soon as i walked out of there using the restroom, you got to put your mask on as you walk to your table. So you heard from him, he said that it was definitely busy year. During the months of June July August and was caught off guard and so was the city so to speak because they gave it a lot of time but ultimately in the end theyo started seeing that the Contra Costa County that covid19 cases started to get a little bit better and theyre starting to move into a different tier, the orange here which allows businesses and restaurants to be a little freer as far as the restrictions. But they saw 35 covid19 cases over the past couple weeks. So they dont want this location. James and darya to bring down the entire county of contra costa which is why there are pulling the plug on this party so to speak back to you. All right, thank you very much well. I wait right now and while more bay area counties are opening up. Solano county is moving backwards because of an increase of coronavirus cases there kron fours tale of a second takes a look. Over the last 2 weeks county saw spike in coronavirus cases averaging about 40 cases per day for them to stay in the red here which is where they are now they need to get under 31 cases per day this is something that businesses in benicia say is crucial for their survival. After seeing a rise in coronavirus cases Solano County is moving in the wrong direction, heading backwards from the state spread tier to its most restrictive purple tier it is definitely disappointing because i working in to see people is misses in benicia say. The jump in cases is disheartening not only for the community, but also for the lifeblood of the local economy purple tier prohibits most not essential indoor Business Operations and would cause some businesses to close or change their current plans, everybody does need to do their and be diligent and especially right now we are in normals flu season and so taking just. Extra is going to help our little businesses in town stand business Solano CountyHealth Officer doctor balan muchas warns that the county has to get its act together unfortunate reality is that we are seeing case numbers that are higher than they should be for us to remain in red and unfortunately that puts us at risk of going back in the purple. You know the cause of it is obviously people getting together with family and friends and letting their guard down so that disease spreads and we had several weeks ago several large as ants that we believe accounted for that spike that theyre not just says the spike could be temporary at least hes hoping thats the case he points to several recent events as examples of behavior that is detrimental to the countys progression in reopening a wedding at a home with 40 people no social distancing no and then there was some type of the news sent invitation only event was a large number of people again no social distancing and we had dozens of cases from these events doctor much as says the county was averaging 27 positive coronavirus cases per day about a month ago, but in the last 2 weeks that number jumped to 41 positive cases per day number that would put the county back on the states purple tier list. If they get the same results next week now to stay in that red here hopefully Solano County can get its case numbers back to under 31 cases. Per day its also another important reminder ahead of halloween and the holidays, keep your guard up continue practicing social distancing and of course wear mask.

But its 44 minutes total from nevado because of the crash that i talked about earlier south one to one after north cent pay drill that still wrapping up and thats why your drive time is so high because its crawling at the scene so 44 minutes to make it from nevada to San Francisco.
