lights went out. won woman telling us somebody stole gas. >> see how things are moving on this tuesday morning. how is it looking? >> pretty good. this is traffic tuesday. we expect a heavy volume, we've seen that over the course of the morning, not a lot but we now see that build kicking in. look at this. north 85, north 87, 101 and 280 all showing the orange where the speeds come down in the 50s through those sections. no big surprises. we were talking about marla, coleman closed. so avoid that area. blossom hill to the north so if you use these neighborhood streets over to meridian, because of that crash and the police investigation that marla continues to follow. here toward the east bay we're slowing, south 880 down off of 238 down past the san mateo

bridge and down toward fremont and union city. this is a build also off the castro valley y. a smooth flow along the peninsula to the dumbarton bridge, san mateo bridge, not a big issue as far as the volume. watch may be gusty conditions here, and look at the maps here we see it painted yellow. talking about the high wind, may be a case over the hills here san francisco, daily city, south we're talking about so hold on tight but no big issues as far as chp. we'll look outside and see how things are shaping up across the golden gate bridge. the winds clearly there are low clouds across the north bay. no problems as far as visibility and in fact, the flag calmed down. changing conditions. we'll give you a look at the bay bridge. there is an issue now, westbound deck is moving smoothly but look at that, just slowed down the last few minutes and we have reports that there may be a bus that is stalled in side that treasure island tunnel. westbound from oakland into san francisco.

there may be a bus blocking one lane at treasure island. hope think 3 can move it quickly. back to you. >> you look closely you can hear scott mcgrew on the kettle drums. it's brilliant. america's cup. renaissance man. america's cup racing returns to the bay. emirate's team new zealand needing two more victories. the race could wrap up today. >> meteorologist christina loren is live in san francisco. >> reporter: good morning. as you know, just this year!qu criteria for the threshold of what means they could have to postpone that race. the threshold is about 25 miles per hour, and this morning we're already working with winds sustained bat 15 to 20 miles per hour. they are expected to pick up more. you can see the story taking a live look here at some of the

flags which are getting that prevailing westerly wind. the wind is going to pick up. it depends on the timing of this disturbance. as to when we are going to see those changes. i kind of want to show you what the wind does to the san francisco bay. in addition to the wind making it nice and choppy, we also have some very erratic current. so current and winds combined are going to dictate whether or not that race can go on. we are pushing up against that threshold later on today. as we head throughout the day it's going to be nice, comfortable, just about every weather. a pretty place we livenof in. spectacular this morning. the mountains holding off the fog in marin county. we're going to see a little coastal fog. not much. what's happening is the wind picks up. you need clear skies and calm winds for the fog to develop. this morning winds are gusty, in fact, we're used to seeing quite a bit of wind at the coast but today, 10 to 15 miles per hour stronger than usual.

and as we head throughout day your future cast tells the story. we're going to see the winds pick up as we head throughout the day, the reds show you where that wind is going to be the most fierce and that's right at the immediate coast. meanwhile, highs look good, if you are coming out to america's cup, temperatures in the mid-60s, make sure you are prepared for an awesome day of racing because that wind will make it more exciting. as we head throughout the day across the rest of the bay area, talking upper 70s inland, plenty of 60s around the bay. and low 60s today at the coast. seven-day outlook, temperatures starting to drop off as we head throughout day, then we climb right back up as we head through tomorrow. so taking you on a roller coaster ride, what that means for us is we're keeping the chance of showers going. this is the last week of summer, feeling like fall, going right back to summer. we're going to finish off the week that way. the best chance for showers look likes saturday into sunday. but we're having a pretty good time.

we'll be here all the way through 1130. we're going to change locations get on some of the catamarans if possible. i'm a sneaky individual. that's coming up at 11:00. back to you guys for now. ajd co >> hey, can't hurt being in san francisco in the morning. >> a breeze through your hair, mist from the ocean. >> bay area wine makers hope for a big harvest. >> that is right. most us were sleeping workers were up early this morning picking all of those grapes. and bob redell
