Caltrans says a 21 mile stretch of 37 from solano to sonoma counties is getting new asphalt. They say its a challenging job on a two lane road. Having a 55 hour closure allows our crews to stage safely and be able to work on, like you said, that limited space and maneuver. So, its very beneficial for us to be able to do so. And that is the limitation this weekend. The closure from 9 p. M. Friday to 5 a. M. Monday will impact westbound lanes of 37 from vallejo to sears point.

A big change is coming to the annual 420 celebration at Golden Gate Park today, the San Francisco rec and Parks Department is holding a field day with volleyball and kickball tournaments instead of the usual hippie hill event. It was canceled because of financial constraints, but that likely wont stop people who still want to celebrate cannabis culture. I think its an opportunity for to get back to the noncommercial roots of enjoyment of cannabis, and i hope that many people come out who might not have come to a big commercial sponsored event and make a day of it and have a picnic with their families and pass around a couple joints here on hippie hill. And then theres this an anticipation of these crowds. The psychedelic church of ambrosia is teaming with nonprofits to send safety staff portable toilets and a medical tent to the park.

The sfmta says their enforcement plan is all about public safety, but some san franciscans believe its also about Something Else money and the budget deficit. Abc seven News Reporter luz pena has this story. Parking enforcement officers in San Francisco are gearing up to ticket more people.

Thats the sound of money leaving james account when he got a parking ticket several weeks ago, i was before it was parking in a commercial space with a noncommercial vehicle, tumlin said. Their Parking Department was short staffed during the pandemic, but some san franciscans say they didnt notice a change in the last four years. Alan showed us the ticket. He got just last week. This is a parking ticket i got the other day for parking during street sweep hours. Our data team analyzed San Franciscos parking citation data and found that in 2023, the majority of violations listed were for street cleaning. Over 500,000 tickets were issued for this. Sfmta said their focus will be public safety. The safety oriented rules like parking on the sidewalk, blocking fire hydrants, blocking the crosswalk, Sustainable Transportation advocate Luke Bornheimer is glad this enforcement is coming. We know that people who park on sidewalks or in bike lanes or in crosswalks or really close to intersections reduce safety for all people, but especially for children and seniors. People with disabilities who walk, bike or use mobility devices to get around sfmtas plan comes after mayor london breed announced the city Street Safety plan, a decade after vision zero policy began. Supervisor mandelman is hopeful this enforcement will help public safety. I have been frustrated for many years about cars blocking bike lanes, parking in the street in ways that are dangerous for pedestrians and cyclists. Sfmta anticipates a 12. 7 million deficit during the fiscal year 2024 to 2025, and 2025 to 2026, a deficit that makes some san franciscans question the latest enforcement announcement tonight.

The data shows that the number of tickets issued each month by sfmta over the last four years has stayed approximately the same. An sfmta said they are planning to increase their enforcement count at the end of april across the bay area. Now several cities have been added to the states pro housing designation.

Lisa is tracking everything you need to know and as we were chatting earlier, its nice to say no rain for this weekend. Yes, for this weekend well be around average, a little bit above average today in some neighborhoods and then a lot above average for your sunday, which will be likely the warmest day of the week, although well hold on to that warmth on monday , even though that sea breeze will try to come back as we look at live doppler seven. Its quiet out there. You can see a few clouds around. This is associated with that onshore flow, and most of us waking up to some clouds. Those will scatter out. But above the marine layer from vollmer peak, you can see how pretty it is there where temperatures will touch uh maybe even 80 degrees. Well, in our inland valleys today, but more likely upper 70s and those 80s arriving for your sunday afternoon inland. So current numbers look like this anywhere from the low 50s in palo alto, 50 two Half Moon Bay in oakland, and San Francisco, 53 san jose. And from our exploratorium camera 627 the official sunrise, a cool 46 in petaluma 49. Santa rosa 50. Napa. Fairfield and livermore. Concord at 51 and the golden gate bridge. Mostly clear there, but overall, well see more clouds this morning as the low cloud deck peels back. Well have sunny skies for the day today. Those breezy winds at the coast and that spring warmth carries over into sunday, which well see temperatures climb as High Pressure builds and less of a marine influence. And then as that High Pressure fades away, well look for more cloud cover, cooler conditions, maybe even some rain by friday. Heres a look. Early this morning. In the next few hours, the clouds from the peninsula to the east bay. Then we get into sunny conditions and starting out sunday morning, notice it will be a clear start out there, making way for a quicker warm up, so the winds continue to increase right along the coast throughout the â– day. This is noontime and we have winds up to about 20 miles an hour, but through the afternoon and evening were up to 30 to 35 miles an hour. Right along the coast here. And then inside the bay. It will be a little breezy there. Much less wind will be arriving for your sunday. If youre headed to the ballpark today. Low 60s, bright and breezy. Sunny with temperatures in the mid 60s as we head towards the ninth inning. So tomorrow with those low to mid 80s inland, you can see the warmth there even about 80 degrees up in sonoma, 73 in oakland. Look for mid 60s San Francisco and well look for the temperatures to come down slightly right along the coast there, but Still Holding on to those 80s inland mid 70s around hayward. But by tuesday look at the drop off. We are all into the 60s even struggling to make it out of the 50s there along the shoreline. So as for today, look for that low 70s there in oakland, 73 in fremont, upper 70s, and even maybe warmer than that in some spots. 79 santa rosa. So thats well above average today. And then overnight tonight, looking at temperatures just a little bit milder will be in the upper 40s to about 53. There in fremont and concord. So the accuweather seven day forecast weve got about 60 at the coast. Low 70s around the bay near 80 inland after the gray start. Sunny and warmer for your sunday.
