6:16 am
parliament, at least not before the next election. the reasons companies like apple created end to end encryption was to get them off the hook with the domestic spying program. the government can't read american's texts without a warrant, which several sources have pointed out the gft often tries to do. as kris mentioned, washington is trying to figure out who hacked the twitter and youtube accounts belonging to the military's central command. this is what the twitter page looked like for a while on monday morning. it's very important to realize central command itself was not hacked. the twitter account was. there is a huge difference there, someone hacks a bank that's a problem. someone hacks the bank's twitter accounts, that's just embarrassing. whoever did it also published some secret data but if you google the secret data you find it on the internet, for instance on the west what purports to be a secret military map of north korean nuclear facilities own on the map a powerpoint published

6:32 am
year over year after year attempted it. this is about focus, it's about determination, it's about perseverance, not necessarily about thrill seeking at all. one of the climbers kevin tweeted out a bit ago, this isn't about conquering the cap, this is about realizing a dream. people from all over the country and world are here in yosemite, many stopping to watch the realization of a dream from me see guys. it's amazing. you can't help but root for these two. much more on the "today" show in a bit. >> did you talk to them before and did they express any nervousness? >> reporter: they're tweeting and instagraming and facebooking from the side of the wall. we are getting incredible insight day after day. you know how bad cell reception is in the yosemite. the wall has amazing signals so they're able to get signals out. kevin was struggling with this one part of the climb for about

6:34 am
starting to happen. here is your temperatures right now, comfortable conditions, not too bad. i'm happy to report it is not a spare the air day, after hitting 11 consecutive, but we told you that fog was going to start to swallow up the bay bridge. we're actually seeing that in real time right now. so please take it easy. like we said before, this fog is not stationary by any means, and we're already seeing some pretty hefty delays, just caused by that reduced visibility. temperatures today are going to be very choice for outdoor activities, if that's something you're into and the air quality kept you inside, look at this, 70 degrees today in the north bay, that's a lovely day, same for the trivalleys. mid-60s for the rest of the bay area, not a lot of microclimate separation. here's the deal for this week, temperatures stay steady, we'll see more wind thursday into friday. by saturday the rain moves in, i'll give you timing for the showers in my next report. mike has the day off, pulling double duty and traffic is stacking up in the usual hot
