Direct traffic around in octavia. Injuries involved at least five blocks back up in the area. Its also there before you get to the central freeway, so it is to access the central freeway. Again, theyre working to clear it, but the lights are also out. Thats causing a problem. Thats why the Police Department is out there directing cars in the meantime. Lets take a live look outside trying to get into San Francisco. We also got some delays and lights on at 5 52 this morning so we look to see the middle lanes, the fast track lanes that backed up first. Kind of unusual. So, anyway, stacking up towards that at least that First Crossing in the distance. Thats in the cash lane. Cash fast track still look okay. That is your latest kcbs traffic. For another check on your forecast, here he is. All right. Weve got clouds out there right now, even a few scattered showers into the south bay. High def Doppler Radar picking up some of that activity right now. That train of moisture almost moving from west to east.

The temperatures mainly in the 40s and 50s now as we head in toward the afternoon well find a mixture of sunshine and clouds and, well, unseasonably Cool Temperatures.

Plane no. 2 arrived but also had a mechanical problem. Passengers were told plane no. 3 should arrive from arizona some time after 6 00. On board the third plane, there was this. Back to the gate for more fuel, and well probably push off about another 35 30, 35 minutes. By then, passengers had lost all patience. Been imprisoned by Allegiant Airlines. Im so fed up with this airport. This is unusual. Just before 9 00 p. M. , flight 1032 finally took off, arriving in utah at 10 22, almost 13 hours after it was scheduled to leave. Allegiant issued a statement saying in part, every effort was made to keep the passengers as comfortable as possible. We never want to delay or inconvenience our passengers, but the safety of our passengers and crew is our no. 1 priority.

Happening today, San Francisco supervisors will put forward a plan to charge you 24 cents more for a can of soda. Supervisor scott weiner wants the surcharge on each can or bottle of soda sold in the city. The money would pay for health, nutrition and activity programs for young people. As long as i know for sure and definitely its going towards that program and definitely going towards that cause then, yeah, id pay for the tax. Sugar is terrible for you so and everyone drinks sugar all the time. I feel like people would stop drinking sugary sodas if they were 25 cents extra. The idea will need support from the majority of the board of supervisors to get on the november 2014 ballot. Similar tax measures were defeated last year in richmond and in the las angeles county town of el monte. Protesters planned a rally today against another one of scott weiners proposals. This time, the supervisor wants San Francisco parks to close between midnight and 5 00 a. M. The idea is to stomp vandalism and theft. Protesters say the plan targets homeless people.
