Trucks, working to repair the highway here, after this fiery crash. Part of the highway, it looks like, was damaged. So theyve got the street sweepers and looks like crews out here. And looks like theyre doing some patchup work to the highway. So we dont know when this northbound part of 101 at Bailey Avenue will be reopened. But this all started 3 30 this morning. Thats when the crash was reported. And this was the dramatic scene the driver saw as they passed the four vehicles on fire. According to chp, it started with a single vehicle that spun out, hit the center divide. Three other cars crashed into it. One ignited and before long, all four vehicles were on fire on the freeway. We know one person was killed. At one point, firefighters and chp had to shut down all. Lanes of northbound 101, south of 85. Now, they have one lane open. I was just driving home from work. Man, i just saw a bunch of fire. And there was like three cars. And theyre just engulfed. It was a pretty bad accident. Now, the backup from the collision extends for miles far south of Bailey Avenue. And a lot of the side streets from Bailey Avenue and monterey road. Also very congested with drivers trying to find alternate ways to get around this partial freeway closure. Now, in their latest notes, the chp, at 5 00 this morning, said they estimated it would take 2 to 3 hours to reopen more lanes of this highway. And so that was at 5 00 this morning.

The irony that this business is sitting here in harvey milk plaza. It just kind of makes my blood boil.

Our Sal Castaneda has been busy, tracking south bay traffic specifically. On highway 101 in the san jose area. I cant imagine youre going to focus anywhere but there now. No. As a matter of fact, i just saw them move a car, one of the last ones, it was on a flat bed. So that just went away. And were looking at a picture of where the crash was. You see the big black marcos the road. Only one lane still open here on northbound 101 and the area here. You will see that traffic is getting by only in the far right lane. Theres the car being backed up onto the center divide. You can kind of see that there. But for the most part, traffic is going to be slow still. As a matter of fact, you can see it from morgan hill to san jose. Its one big traffic jam. That means the rest of the san jose commute has been better. A lot of people are stuck back there. And they cant get into the main part of the valley. Were looking at the east bay as well. You can see highway 4, slow through bay point. And pittsburgh at bay point. And 680 is a little slow. Theres a little routine commute. No problems on the east shore freeway, taking about a half hour to drive to the maze. Then another 20 minute toss sit at the bay bridge toll plaza. Lets go to steve. Very good question, sal. Yes, sir. It will be cooler. We started that yesterday. Even though some inland. Today it willault be lower 80s. Other than that, looks cooler. And maybe, just maybe. You might have to usher in rain. Early saturday morning. Tim says its nice to have mother natures air conditioning turned back on. Gusts of 30 plus, about fairfield. And concord has come down a little bit. Due west, napa airport. Due west oakland. The cooler forecast has begun from the very warm inland temps. Coast and bay, not really that warm. But they will cool off into friday and maybe saturday. Still warm but not that warm. From yountville, antioch, walnut creek and morgan hill. Low to mid80s. 70s, oakland downtown. 68. And marshall, San Francisco, and pacifica, 60s. With so cal in the low 70s. Thats the low in the last theres a bad image there. But watch. Right southern end of that, tapping in a little moisture. So maybe that will play into our weather. Low clouds on the move. No problem. Water temps are cold. In fact, theyre cold all wait down to Point Conception with Santa Barbara, with 50s on the temps. I have to cough here. You know the feeling. Want to take a minute here . No, i dont need a minute. Power through. 50s, a few 40s to the north. Upper 50s here. 59 walnut creek. El cerrito says hey, were 56. Dublin and pleasanton at 50 degrees. Looks like a lot of the thunderstorm activity is pushing east of tahoe. That low, though, is going to make a big impact as we head into a cooler pattern, the next few days. And i think we start to get cloud cover in here on friday into saturday. And it does look like not only will it be cooler, but watch this on the future cast here. Possibility in the last couple there. Early saturday, some rains approaching. So well see if it makes it. But i would hold on to that santa rosa, calistoga north. 60s, 70s, on the temps. They continue to slide down for the inland areas. Well below average now. That will continue into saturday. Then warmer, sunday and monday.
