weather here. we do have a wind advisory in effect. my question to meteorologist, christina loren, how long is this going to last? >> looks like most of the day. good morning to you. i want to show you. nobody is spared this morning. the strongest gust usually comes through the higher elevation where we lack that friction. the east bay hills at the immediate coast. it is san jose that is getting hit really hard this morning. our gusts are really strong. the winds have been battering those trees overnight. we are expecting more to go down as we head throughout the morning. i'll be tracking that for you. i want to point out how strong those sustained speeds. this is your straight line wind out of the west. a 26-mile-per-hour gusting to 50, 60 miles per hour from time to time. like he said, that gentleman, he was not awakened by the wind. it wasn't howling where he lives. you want to keep that in mind this morning. make sure you give yourself plenty of time even though the wind didn't wake you up. it had been howling in parts of

however, winds will play a factor. doppler radar shows you, we are still tracking a few showers as that system pulls out of here. that's what's driving those strong winds. keep in mind, it is very blustery out there. we had rain over the weekend. highways are still slick in spots. one of those mornings you don't want to mess around. give yourself plenty of time and travel cautiously. let's check your drive with mike inno inouye. over the weekend. the cameras were blowing around. a lot of our cameras, the connector is being blown around. we will show you the map in the area. a smooth traffic flow. look, the yellow painted all over the map where the high winds are registering. sustained winds throughout the south bay and our road weather index. santa cruz mountains, highway 17, will be an issue coming over the summit. anywhere south of santa clara

your odd s really aren't that good. >> about 1 in 175 million that you are going to win. >> what sorts of things should you keep in mind? >> well, certainly, think about retirement. there was a recent survey done, 20% of the workers out there don't feel they have enough money to retire. it is the highest it has been since the beginning of the survey. inflation, you may remember buying gas. i remember buying gas in the '80s in fremont. inflation is a big part of retirement and health care costs. they could be $250,000 for a married couple these days. >> i would think when you are talking millions and millions and millions of dollars, you probably wouldn't be thinking about those sorts of things, like retirement. you would think you have it all in the bag. how would you set up handling that amount of money? >> you would want to diversify

it, different assets. you wouldn't want to spend it on a bunch of things you couldn't afford thinking you could. it is important to save money, put it in different types of asset classes. create an income plan to last for the rest of your life. >> should i win on wednesday, i will be back to see you. >> it seems as though we probably should be talking to him now. i wonder if he is going to play. ask him that. a bay area family goes on vacation and go careening into the russian river. we are going to hear from the hemo that saved all five of them, including a young child next. google maps gets an artistic twist. we will show it to you coming up. is it time for a stock market correction. it has been a good run. we will take a look coming up.

he could file for bankruptcy as early as today. the company did get department of energy loans. so do expect some political pushback on this. not on the level of solindra. there is a push online to get someone to buy the rights to the design. put a new power plant in the front to give the car a range of many hundreds of miles. as you guessed, they call it gasoline. let's check the markets this morning. let's turn to seema mody. good morning. >> hello there. futures are higher as the markets come off a down week for the dow and the nasdaq ending in the red. friday's disappointing jobs report. look for reports later this week on retail sales, inflags and consumer sentiment. earning season kick off with um ins from aluminum giant, alcoa. the dow falling 40 points and

the nasdaq losing 21 to close at 3803. sending it back to you. on friday, we got the jobs numbers. economists still scratching their heads over that one. we mentioned the big problem wasn't the number of jobs added, though that was pretty lousy, nor the unemployment rate or the participation rate. the number of people that indicate they want to be part of the labor force with or without an actual job. is that a low we have not seen in decades. an analyst says if you took the people that don't count as being unemployed, because they are not looking for a job, if you included them in the jobless numbers, you would have an unemployment rate closer to 11%. laura and marla? >> thank you very much. interesting. maybe people just want to win that big power lottery coming to california. we are experiencing power outages around the bay area. it is just booking out there. >> it is pretty dangerous. we want to make sure everybody

kayaker, mark deviderio saw it happen and rushed into help. >> it is fortuitous they didn't land on me. i was kayaking right there moments before they plunged off the cliff and landed right there. >> he was able to get two teenagers and a 4-year-old to safety. a nearby fire crew was able to free the mother and father who were also pinned inside the car. all five family members are expected to be okay. the cause of that crash is still under investigation. look at that, though. 5:20. coming up, we'll show you which quarterback is about to step on the big screen as the famed johnny united. >> plus, hockey, underneath the california sun. details on the outdoor nhl game in the works.
