"today in the bay" bob redell is live in san francisco this morning. how big of an impact will it have on traffic? that whole area has been under construction for a while. >> could cause some backups and congestion on the northern approach here to the golden gate toll bridge plaza and if you're not paying attention, you could be forced to cross the golden gate bridge and pay that $7 toll even though your intention is to stay in the city. head northbound 101 towards this

location and up the final approach to the bridge. you see that last exit sign and right before you get to the toll plaza, you have the option of exiting back into the persidio but come sunday, that all changes. that's when construction workers will realign part of the road, which will push the last exit about 1,000 feet south. so, if you're not paying attention, you could end up missing the new exit and get stuck having to cross the bridge and, of course, get back into the city you'd have to do a u and come back across the bridge and pay the $7 toll. they warn there could be congestion on this final approach because of drivers confused by this new alignment. this new alignment, by the way, is temporary. should only last a month or two. so, again, anyone that is going up northbound 101, you always see that last exit and you can always get off right before the toll plaza, but, again going to be about 1,000 feet back starting sunday. but for people, you know, out

and about monday and through the rest of the week, just something to keep your eye on. reporting live here at the golden gate bridge toll plaza, bob redell. >> a good heads up there, appreciate it, thanks. 5:11. another state has moved to ban sales of tesla. >> that's right. also this tweet from the national security agency looks like a mistake originally but it turns out this whole thing part of the plan. we'll explain. got a story for nbc bay area investigative unit? call the tip line at 1-888-996-tips or e-mail us at theunit@nbcbayarea.com.

$7 toll, assuming that your intention was just to stay in the city. anyone who is going on northbound 101 right now you get through the tunnel and you see the sign that says last access and you are allowed to exit right before you get to the toll plaza and go back about your business in the city. but come sunday, construction crews with the park project realignment will be moving that exit 1,000 feet south. so, be 1,000 feet sooner and if you're not paying attention or aware of it, you'll miss that last exit and be forced on to the golden gate bridge and then having to do a u and paying that $7 toll. the people running this project are getting the word out. be aware of that last exit. going to be about 1,000 feet sooner starting sunday and, of course, more traffic will be coming throughout the week. so, this could be reverse commute issue or going home

issue for some reason you have to come back and they just want you to be aware and also wonder could be some congestion and some backups with drivers being confused and going wait, what and then slowing down and then you have the rest is history, i should say. reporting live here at the golden gate bridge toll plaza, i'm bob redell. >> the rest becomes mike inouye's problem. that guy stops and that guy hits him. >> it's called the wait, what. >> #waitwhat. we'll know what that is if it happens sunday, folks. be prepared. over here getting into san francisco from the east bay moves smoothly. i love this shot this morning because we see the low clouds in the buildings with the city itself and low clouds around the area and cleared from the bay bridge and we had earlier issues right on the san francisco side, but not a problem. look at the toll plaza itself and we do see a smooth, steady flow of traffic and the cash lanes a few folks waiting in

line there and the fastrak moving smoothly and you can see sunlight and that's great stuff as it starts. traffic flows nicely out of the maze and down the east shore froway through oakland 580 and 880 move smoothly and we talked about mist from overnight and drizzle and rain and damp roadways and whipple road reports of a car that went off the roadway and spun out and went into the hillside there and took place on the off ramp and a little bit of water on the road and combine to have that type of situation. no major injuries and a smooth drive around the rest of your bay and we just have your start fwr the westbound 580 commute coming through the tri-valley. no surprises for the morning commute. what do you have weather wise? >> hope you have a good surprise for your wife on sunday. good, good, good. happy to know mike is prepared, are you? 57 degrees in the south bay and 59 degrees along the peninsula and we would like to help you

the car. >> now the commercial begins with a woman on the phone talking to her spouse. she is in the driveway apologizing about a decision she made to just go ahead and buy the new car and the camera pans and reveals her spouse is a woman. >> we didn't expect such feedback. it is really amazing to see all sorts of e-mails and phone calls come into the dealership. >> the ad began airing on may 1 and the dealership has gotten 100 e-mails so far, mostly positive, and a few negative. well, let's take a live look outside as we talk about the weather this morning and a beautiful picture of the bay bridge. >> gorgeous. >> fantastic as we join christina loren. little bit of mist and rain. >> mist, drizzle and, yeah, not rain. basically when you're talking about rain, you're talking about the actual size of the drop. so, yeah, one of those things.

you live here in the bay area and you know what the fog can do to your morning drive. it can slow you down and we haven't had any real moisture come through the bay area and yesterday a little bit of light shower activity up in the north bay and drizzle for the greater bay area, but just wasn't really enough to wash off our roadways. do watch out out there as we do see things slicken up. all that oil rises to the top whenever we get moisture on our roadways. fog starts in san francisco and beautiful start in san jose. this is what we're working with. a mix of sun and clouds to start off your day and no temperatures comfortable and mostly upper 60s to low 70s for this afternoon and warm you up as we ghet et i the mother's day weekend. our air quality is going to suffer, as well. good air quality for today and same for tomorrow and getting into next week, that heat cranks. for today, comfortable temperatures and same for tomorrow and few 90s on the way for sunday and next week that warming continues. triple-digit heat on the way and we'll talk about that coming up.

heading up towards the san mateo bridge. we see the traffic westbound as your commute coming back over towards the peninsula. southbound 880 reports of a spinout right there at the whipple off ramp and a pretty tight curve there and slicker roadways contributing to that single car spin out. we'll continue on because the freeway itself is open there and dublin interchange and a little slowing at highway 84 and the rest of your approach to the bay bridge looking for metering lights and back to you. >> all right, mike, thank you much. tonight the giants will try to keep the momentum going against the dodgers down in los angeles. game one of the series went into extra innings, tied at 1-1 at the top of the tenth. hector sanchez hit a sac fly to right and dodgers went on to beat the dodgers 3-1. game two right here on nbc bay area. our coverage starts at 7:00. let's not forget about the nfl draft. a lot of people live for this

and the fans for sure. the raiders have one pick. >> so, yeah, the silver and black yesterday selected mack from the university of buffalo. started all four years of college and never missed a game to injury. he is ready to jump in and contribute on the field. >> with the 30th pick in the 2014 nfl draft, the san francisco 49ers select jimmy ward. >> for the second straight year, the 49ers went on and picked a safety snagging jimmy ward out of northern illinois. the fans at the 49er draft party, look at that. seemed please would the selection. so, head coach jim harbaugh has a knack for making the right plays. the houston texans selected south carolina defensive end jadeveon clowney as the number one pick. big day for him. clowney became the first defensive player chosen first overall since 2006.

very cool. so, news not so good, though, for johnny football. a lot of people didn't see this coming. johnny manziel was selected 22nd overall finally by the cleveland browns. while he waited hours to hear his name called the nfl tweeted this #sadmaziel. so many are calling the controversial tweet overly harsh. >> from the league. like making fun of the guy that is not getting picked from the league. >> little bit tough. surprising it is still there or whoever tweeted in the first place. coming up, a taste test for mcdonald's. this menu item debuting today.
