first official week of summer, june 21st is the first day of summer. you can see, a dip in the jet stream. you can see the trough here. this is going to bring in cool air all day today. and for the first part of tomorrow so we're going to be cooler tomorrow as a result. but this is what we're looking at. 53 degrees in livermore, 49 degrees up in santa rosa, 50 in novato and 50 in san mateo. headed to the 70s by lunch. peeling off the layer but steal nice enjoyable weather especially if you want to take a run. you can do so at 4:00 p.m. 75 degrees in san jose. in the peak heat of the day, 79 gilroy and 75 degrees in los gatos. yes, we've got the giants back in town, they will take on the a's at over stock.com coliseum at 7:05. you'll be headed out to the game, 63 degrees, you might want to bring a jacketment it will drop off once the sun goes down. 79 degrees on sunday, father's day. looking good, if you want to make outdoor plans, i think

you'll get the best weather of the day right around 11:00 between 11:00 and 3:00. mostly clear conditions. highs in the low 70s. just gorgeous for anything like golf, maybe an early barbecue. >> this is a cool story. one bay area man makes a commitment it sticks. bob redell found that out during a recent trip to the explore-atorium in san francisco. >> the light bulb lasts maybe three to five years depending how much you use it. >> this is the wrong story. we must have had the wrong tape rolled in there. so we're going to get it. it's this guy who makes these incredible structures out of toothpicks. we'll see if we can get that. hey, first right now let's talk about cars. when it's not a mobile device it's the head of -- when the head of the federal car safety agency says so. car pro jerry reynolds joins us live this morning to explain. good morning.

happy friday to you, jerry. >> hey, thank you, laura. you are absolutely right. the head of ntsb is not going to allow cars to turn into smart phones. he likes some of the technology, 911 assist, gps, voice activated systems. he likes that but he doesn't want to have distractions like being able to get on facebook or twitter in the car. i told you about the google driverless car that they had come out with and were testing now. it's a toyota prius. david strickland said it's a neat car but america's not ready for it and neither is he. so, we're going to see where that goes. >> jerry, you always have great cars to show us. i understand you got bmw 650-i there. what's your impression? nice? >> i tell you, laura, it is

just -- besides being beautiful. it's the ultimate driving machine. it is. and it's the ultimate driving machine for me. the car handles great. 4.4 liters under the hood. big v-8 with twin turbo chargers. this is $107,000 so it's not a cheap car but it is -- yeah, it's like having a mortgage. but it's the 2012 model. it just came out. got a beautiful interior. the top goes up and down in 25 seconds. and bmw says you can raise and lower the top at speeds up to 25 miles per hour but that's not something that i tried. >> i would think that you shouldn't. at that price tag i don't know if it's got room for three car seats i need. it's also father's day weekend. i don't know if you're a dad. but you do have ideas for car enthusiasts. >> i do. you know, almost all dads do love things about cars so i was

looking at things maybe people could get this weekend. tomtom makes a gps that is inexpensive, under $100. if you go to radio shack.com there is a coupon to get $30 off. and once you have that you can get celebrity voices for another $13. i found a seat belt buckle that's made -- it was made from the seat belt of a car and it becomes a belt for dad which is cool. you can get some driving gloves from the porsche club. if you want to get him something spem, hertz rent a car will rent him a muscle car for the day. it's not that expensive. but yes, i am a dad, and for me i think the greatest gift a child can give a father is to take his car, put it in the drive way and give it a really good wash job. that gift is priceless. >> make sure you dry it in the shade, though. don't want those spots. i saw the posh thing there too.

take care of the mothers too. hey, bay area concertgoer still haven't found what they are looking for. the concert was weeks ago but why are holderso s angry. >> keep wake-up the father's day idea with gadgets as well. coming up in gadget friday. get the facts at remax.com. it's a great place to see all the listings in thousands of cities and towns. with lots of houses to chose from and down-to-earth prices the dream of owning a home seems more attainable than ever. find out what an experienced re/max agent can do for you. nobody sells more real estate than re/max. visit remax.com today. and a forward thinking spirit. at bank of america, we've been fueling economic growth here for over a century. today we're investing in innovations that will define our future. every day, we're working to help set opportunity in motion. from financing a solar project for the milpitas school district

>> welcome back. live look outside. golden gate bridge, you can see the sun breaking through the clouds this morning. 6:53 right now. a live look at interstate 880, the oakland coliseum. it appears controversy still brewing over the u2 concert last week. several blogs have popped up and dozens of people have posted complaints, most have the same

story, they spent hours, as much as four, trying to fight traffic to get to the june 7th concert only to turn around and head home. a lot of people say they want to take legal action against the city and concert organizers if they don't get ticket money back. event organizers said they did everything they could. i don't know why they turned around or if people turned them around. we'll investigate. a little u2 doesn't hurt. let's check the commute. >> u2 in the morning. it's a beautiful day when they play. on the east bay, apparently there's congestion around the coliseum. i don't know why it was a surprise. the east shore freeway, 20 minutes, that's no surprise. as you move through the east bay some slowing, not at the maze, this is friday light but moving slowly through antioch. muni is recovering, the n and the j lines recovered after the power was restored. last night huge problems but the underground running again with maybe minor delays through the

area. we'll check with our chopper heading over to the east bay. see if they are out there. there we go. 880 moving smoothly up into hayward. a light volume for friday through this area as well. smooth all the way down to the south bay. a little slowing on northbound 101, and overall very green through the south bay and the flow down toward the santa cruz area. highway 17 likely to get more crowded today and this weekend because of the great weather. folks will probably head to the summit. expect congestion in toward the santa cruz beaches. a beautiful view of the animated beach it reminds me of my beautiful wife, it's her birthd day. tracy. a view of the ocean and our future. it's still our future. limitless. >> i was going to say. that could go a lot of ways, mike. stick around. scott needs help with gadget friday.

>> i have two. let's start with a grill this morning. this nice weather and father's day, i figured we should talk grills. this is the element by san francisco-based fuego. this one seals up and keeps all of the gook inside, you see it's got this rubber band on the top. so once it's cooled down you can carry it around and the gook won't get out. and mike has something from a company called quirky. spatulas. show it off. what you do you take the handle and you click it in. you click it in. very well done, mike. and you click it. >> slightly well done, mike. >> invented by a guy in wisconsin who didn't like his drawers filled up with spatulas. his kitchen drawers. press the button. >> then put on a new one. >> awesome. no kidding. >> bits quirky.com. it's kind of silly but hey, you

got it. >> that's fun. 40 bucks. go to quirky.com. it's a social invention site. you come up with an idea and they create it for real. fun inventions. there are your gadget fridays. 150 for this, 40 bucks for that. >> fun for the kids. >> we could shoot that bubber hand thing, too. >> that would be great. angry grills. new app. >> never know. i don't know if you guys would get mad being left at the altar by a playboy bunny. hugh hef fler nerhefner, after 25-year-old fiancee left him days before the wedding. crystal harris is a cover girl on this july issue of plat play
