Nothing too bad on the bridge itself. Were looking at contra costa county. The road sensors arent showing a lot of show traffic. It is looking okay on 680. 7 03, lets go back to the desk. The bay area is starting to dry out. Were still seeing some showers however, were feeling the lingering effects of yesterdays monster storm. Alex savage is live where usually busy road near 101 has been closed for hours because of all of the standing water behind us. That is the problem. Were still waiting for the waters to recede here in this part. Many roads remain closed this morning. You can see someone behind us, here. They just ditched their suv during yesterdays massive storm because of on the going boulevard. North, right behind us remains shut down in both directions this morning morning. This is what two looked like this evening people were caught off guard and the river went over the banks many of them were guided by firefighters to nearby shelters where they remain for the night we caught up with one family whos whus swam swamped by the water. 45 minutes later, the garage, an hour later, right here. Is it in your snous. Not yet. Most likely it wi. As the rain kept falling there, were rescues in the area as well. About a dozen people who were working in an industrial part were put into rafts or loaded into high profile trucks in order to get home. They simply could not drive home from work because of all of the standing water. As we bring you back live to a live picture, youre looking at some of the work crews here, theyre working, waiting for the water to go down in this area. In the meantime. This major though fair remains closed. Well send it back to you. Hats off to the crews that have been working extremely long and soggy hours to keep things moving. Well check back for an update. Thank you. It is 7 06. The safe way supermarket is closed indefinitely after the rain caused the roof to collapse. It happened yesterday afternoon at the safe way on east kolt sxresz way near east capitol expressway. A section of the roof came crumbling down. Fortunately there were very few customers inside the supermarket at the time due to the big storm. There was just one minor injury but the roof collapse caused very dense moments. You could hear it. It was wa loud. It just it was loud. It just sounded like thunder. I felt a lot of adrenaline going and going and i just had to call 911 and just freaked out. Firefighters now fear the whole roof could cave in and san jose safety inspectors red tagged the building until theyre certain it is safe. Time is 7 06. This weeks monster storm caused incredible scenes you rarely see here in the bay area. Take a look at this. This is berkley, that is the roof of a car that is barely above water. It is one of three cars that went under water after the under pass flooded along ashby avenue near interstate 80 in berkley. The people who live in this area say this part of ashby often has standing water even on a dry tay. This under crossing is wet july 1st. There is always water under it. So i dont know why anybody would try to ride through it. Boy. The highway crews worked well past midnight to get the cars out of here and reopen that under pass. That is an amazing picture. Bay area airports are getting back to normal after the big problems tied to the big storm. The duty manager at San Francisco international tells us there are only nine cancellations this morning. That is a huge improvement over the more than 250 cancellations at sfo yesterday. No major problems are expected at the two airports in oakland and san jose. However, you should still contact your airline ahead of time before heading off to the airport this morning. In the meantime, many travellers heading to sfo may be hungry as they wait for their flight. A strike by 1,000 airport workers. They walked off the job over job security and healthcare. The strike impacted the vast majority of the airports restaurants at the peak of the storm. The workers are expected to be back on the job tom. Barts annual Safety Escort Program will be under way tomorrow. It is helping curve crime against Holiday Shoppers riding bart back to oakland from San Francisco. There were supposed to be escorts betweenand 7 00 this morning but Oakland Police say the Escort Program has been cancelled tonight due to anticipated protests. We are trying to find out when the Escort Program will begin. Time is now 7 09. We can smile because juan of the south bays because one of the south bays Holiday Events is christmas in the park and one of my favorite people, ryan flores is live at the park where Community Groups are invited to perform for the people there.

This is the 35th anniversary. We pulled out all of the stops we brought in a few more displays, new programs, partnership with habitat for humanity where we have company thats build the ginger bred play houses around our tree. Were exited to have it here. Obviously a lot of people were going through this. Was there any damage to any of the rides . Were you able to hunker things down. We didnt really have any problems. Things got wet obviously but for us, rain is a catch 22 in that people dont come out in the rain but it keeps everything nice and shiny and clean and the trees last longer. Other than it being wet, we didnt have any problems. I have a 4yearold and a 2yearold. What tips do you have for families that want to come out. Try and arrive kind of late in the afternoon. Come about 2, 3 00, look at the park during the day.

It is really snowing. Just how much will they get . And how dangerous will the drive up there be . Good morning, were looking at a commute where traffic is getting busier in some areas and beginning to rain. Look apt the Richmond Bridge approach. Were seeing slow traffic get onto the scombroon it is beginning to rain because we have a line moving on shore right about over the golden gate and marine county in San Francisco. A break today but were not done with the rain yet. More coming up. It is 7 14. Yesterdays storm created some unusually big waves at lake tahoe and some surfers didnt hesitate to take advantage. This is video of surfers actually riding waves on the lake. You see that picture there. The huge waves. High winds turned the normally calm water into ocean like swells. Some as big as seven feet. Waves only happen like this every few years or so. The water temperature, about 50 degrees. That is wild. Bay area skiers. You may want to head to the sierra. A lot of of snow on the ground, two feet of snow fell in the higher elevations. Tahoe got about a foot. Our reporter brian hickey live in blue canyon. It is coming down where you are, man. Reporter it is coming down here. That surf video makes me kind of cold. The snow here this morning, absolutely awesome. Were at the 5,000foot level. You can see where cal tran has done a good job of grooming the road. Good travel after the blizzard warning expired. The snow is falling straight down. We have a couple mile visibility here looking up interstate 880. The drive over the mountain, if youre comfortable with Winter Driving conditions, not bad at all. We havent seen any major problems. It is going to be a great day to get up to the resort especially this weekend with sun in the forecast. Ive been looking around the some of the web cameras kirk wood, i saw ski parole getting on to lift six. Sugar bowl has a foot and a half at the base. I havent seen the upper model numbers yet. Looking around here, you can see the snow here. Blue canyon, 810 inches. This is more snow than we had all of last year out of any storm at blue canyon. This is a good start. I dont want to jinx it. Everything looking good here at blue canyon. We could ski here. We can ski at the resort and the blue canyon newsroom has survived another season. I built this thing eight years ago. Were trying to do the math on that. It is still here but my Christmas Lights arent working this year. They finally gave up. Im promising you, led lights for the news tloom. All right. Ill get to work in here. Ill take the old ones out. Ill send it back to you. Thank you very much. It looks warm in there. It does. It looks koezty. Is good to see all cozy. It is good to see all of the snow. That will make a dent in the snow. Lets check in with sal who is hard at work. It was an interesting day yesterday with traffic, such a heavy rain but not a lot of cars on the road. Yesterday there werent. Today were back in business as we speak. There are a lot more vehicles on the road and i was just thankful that yesterday a lot of people did stay home because if we were to get these conditions with people in the usual crowds we would have seen a lot more dangerous, possibly deadly situations. Today, not quite as bad. People are on the road. Westbound 24, Pleasant Hill road, yesterday it was like, well, virtual tumble weeds. Today there are cars on lafayette to the way to the tunnel. Same things goes when you get to the toll. There were four cars in the picture and it was raining hard. It is not raining there now and the trafks is moderate into San Francisco. I do want to mention in the east bay. Traffic on 880 and 580 looking good as you drivethru. We did have a couple of minor things going on in the east bay but nothing major just yet. There was a minor accident here on 580 to 980. 7 18. Lets go back to steve in the weather center. I want to mention that chains are required if youre thinking of making a drive to tahoe on 80 and 50. It is cheaper if you get them here and it is also cheaper if you know how to install them yourself. If you have a good job, make a lot of money, pay somebody. I agree. If you want to. I understand. Although i should add that up in bridge port, our observer kelly at 7,100 feet said what snow . It is getting there but yesterday was our turn. It was a very warm sector. The cold air is just now arriving. Jim just wrote me and said where is our thunderstorms the cold air is arriving now. I try to answer each and every one. It is on its way. Cold, unstable air and motion sense will help. Were getting rain here right over San Francisco now. Right around sunset district. Richmond and toward marina and over the Golden Gate Bridge. Look at the line right off of south San Francisco down along the san mateo coast. There is a line if youre getting heavy rain, sunset district. There is moderate rain when you see that over the golden gate. That line is moving in right there. Also, off the santa cruz coast it is taking aim but it wasnt to favor the monterey rather than the coast. Youre standing right in front of it. Three and a half inches of rain. Some of the areas around guerneville look like theyre lighting up. Wind sore, clover windsor, cdale. Guerneville. 88 and a half. Nevada, 8. 50. Our observer said he knew an observer who had 11 inches of rain. Nevado seemed to be the mother ship for the rain yesterday. Adjacent cruz mountains, four and a half. San bruno eight and a half and sunny vale had over four inches of rain. Whatever location you are, you can take a look and see how much you probably had. They were all around 345. Santa rosa five. Santa cruz didnt get as much. R. North bay took the honors fremont. Three, livermore three. San jose 3. 39. Everyone was close. Water temperatures are warm. 59. The colder air coming over the relatively warmer water and a little sheer, lift, could trigger thunderstorm activity. A lot itself will probably collapse but it is still there. 40 iss 50s on your temps. It will be a cold day for december. Cold day. Cold in the seeair yes for some. Winter storm warning is out until 10 00. Well get a line of thunder shower activity. Well get bright. This afternoon well see it popping up. We need a little bit of sun even though we dont get much. After tonight things will favor the monterey area. Things will call down tonight into tomorrow. There will be a lot of fog tomorrow. Possible thunderstorms today, especially if we get a few sun brakes. It is under sun breaks. It is under 50. Fog will be the main story for today and the weekend. It will not hold a candle to what we just had. It will just be plain old. And the rain we had yesterday is now in Southern California. It is flooding down there. Theyre getting the Power Outages too. Thanks. A transformer fire right by San Franciscos busy union square during yesterdays big storm. We talked about it. Coming up in 20 minutes, the Power Outages we are still seeing this morning around the bay area.
