saturday reaching the upper 80s in the valleys and then we see an area of low pressure developing over the pacific, but it carries the rain over toward the pacific northwest, but we will at least get a shift in the wind, and that's going to bring in some cooler air between sunday and monday, and of course, we're all looking ahead to halloween. looks a little bit cooler. so it won't be as hot with the kids wearing their costumes. as we look at our numbers here, it is going to feel like summer for a couple of days on friday and saturday especially. heading over to mike, watching out for road crews. >> also watching that 89 only the halloween party day for my daughter. cocoa county is great. no delays across that antioch bridge, benicia, carquinez. there may be a crew that remains there. there is a crew here southbound 880. we see speeds starts to change right now, they're moving those crews from the overnight roadwork with the 23rd overpass. you are off and back on but over

he saw this 2013 corvette tiles there had. he bought it. then he took it to his mechanic the next day. that mechanic found damage underneath, including scrapes and what he said were missing parts. phil complained to the dealer and it did $500 in repair work. to double check that work, phil took the corvette back to his mechanic, who found new damage. this time cracks to the corvette's fiberglass frame. phil says the mechanic suspected improper use of the lifters at the dealer's garage. so phil confronted the dealership. he asked for them to pay for those repairs, but he says the dealer declined to pay for those repairs. so he turned to us. we contacted mercedes-benz of stephens week but it didn't respond to us but phil says that very same day the dealer called him with an apology as well as an offer to fix the fiberglass, a $4,488.20 job. phil was smart to bring in an
