We are getting our first look at selfdriving big rigs this morning. Sillicon valley startup auto just released this video of trucks driving on their own. It says it includes hardware and software that can be retrofitted on current trucks to make them fully autonomous. The drivers will be like supervisors. They will be on major highways in seven years according to one person. Trucking accidents, the drivers fall asleep. So thats not going to be a problem anymore so typically we think that selfdriving vehicle at its best will eliminate the stupid human errors that we all make. The startup is already testing trucks on california highways. Its entirely funded and started by tech bigwigs from google, apple and tesla. The company hasnt said when the technology will be available or how much it will cost. Expect to find warning labels on the soda and sugary drinks you buy in San Francisco starting this summer. Soft drink companies wanted to stop the law requiring them but a federal judge rejected the move. The warning label law goes into effect on july 25. Time now 5 08. Passengers complaints over security lines at airports have increased more than tenfold over the last year. The call for the tsa to step in. Plus, is that sunscreen really protecting you . Why customer might be getting burned. If you are heading out to the oakland as daytime baseball game you will need the sunblock. Now well talk about the change you need to know for your thursday. If you hit the roads early this morning, no accidents or incident. Traffic coming up. ,,,,,,,,,, good morning. It is may 18. Were taking a look out towards sfo where we have clear skies there. No reports of any airport delays from there to Mineta International airport in san jose or across the bay in oakland. Well talk about the weather changes coming up. Across Northern California snow melting in the sierra is helping rivers flow briskly again. Several lakes are seeing the upside of our healthy snowpack. Lake shasta is now 93 full and Lake Oroville is better at 96 . But in Southern California, Drought Conditions are hard to shake and water experts say the temperatures will only keep soaring. We have set records almost every year since the year the on the warmth of the air. I think these are the conditions we face now. Not as much precipitation as the winter and warmer temperatures. But as rivers and reservoirs fill up, some hikers fear that their next trip to the mountains wont entail much snow. Migrating whales are getting caught in crab fishing lines. Its more of a problem this year because of the late start to crab season. Crews from the Oceanic Society have come to the rescue several times. That group is praising the crabbers for alerting them to whales in trouble. Some fishermen have even jumped into the water to make rescues themselves. They have actually been helping us. The two disentanglements we have been successful recently over the last few weeks have been initiated by the fishermen. Whales will be along the coast for most of the summer but crab season ends next month. Help is on the way for air travelers dealing with long security lines. The tsa is sending five k9 teams adding more than 100 full time agents and increasing overtime at chicagos packed ohare airport. The move comes after a public outcry over the long security process. Last week American Airlines said 6400 of its customers missed their flights. Passengers are expressing their frustrations on social media using the hashtag, i hate the wait. We are going to surge new screeners into the airports there to deal with the backup and the crowds. Some lawmakers are asking for the tsa administrator to step down if the problem isnt fixed by memorial day weekend. Cowgirl creamery is going international. The San Franciscobased company was bought out by the swiss dairy company, emmy. The deal also includes the companys distribution arm tomales bay foods. Its the latest of several bay area Small Companies being acquired by larger businesses. Six months ago emmy got Redwood Hill Farm and creamery. They promised a certainly level of protection but a new report finds a lot of sunscreens are falling short. Consumer reports looked at 65 products all labeled as 30 spf or above and found 43 failed to meet the claim on the label. Products labeled natural or mineral based fell short of those chemical baseed. Mineral sunscreens are physical blocks. The chemical sunscreens you need to put them on about 15 minutes to actually activate the they are essentially a filter. They are by themselves much more efficient. And parents you want to hear this. Two sunscreens marketed for kids were labeled with spf 50 were found to have spf of just 8. Still, the makers stand by their products. Thats scary especially when youre taking the kids out to the park. Its upsetting because my wife business the expensive kind of i just buy the generic ones. So, you know, all right you just never know. I guess you have to go to Consumer Reports and see which ones failed and passed. All right. Lets check traffic. Want to do that . Lets do that. 5 15.

Everything clear out of novato traffic light even from 580 down into San Francisco. We havent had any troubles this morning. We are starting to see some extra volume some slight delays westbound 580 as you commute from the Altamont Pass to 680.

It was a Beautiful Day yesterday, roberta. It was. We had High Temperatures between 82 in San Francisco to 93 degrees in sonoma.
