circled doesn't have the yellow highlighting. the fog is drifting around. the rest of the bay shows a smooth flow of traffic and that will be the case as folks travel throughout the bay from the city all the way down to the south bay. there's a crash on san pablo dam road but not affecting the freeway. more coming up. laura? there are 15 days until the presidential election and today is the final day to register to vote online in california. now when it comes to mail-in ballots there's already been an unusually large bay area turnout. you'll still be able to register after today but only in person at your county elections office. a brush fire coming dangerously close to an apartment building.

people are being fined for not wearing masks. most people are wearing masks but probably not worth the risk to law enforcement officeers to cite people not following orders. instead, free masks are provided. fines issues to those ignoring county health orders. ac transit buses have been outfitted with protective shields around drivers. they've added sanitizer dispensers as well. because of the upgrades, when restrictions first went in place passengers were boarding from the rear of the bus and there was no fare collection at all to help with exposure and social distancing. 4:35 for you that morning. san jose leaders will hold a public gathering on google's massive new downtown west development program. google leaders will also attend tonight's development application meeting. the company recently submitted its plans and preliminary sketches for an 80-acre new

starting out dark and early this morning. taking a live look out at san francisco. you can see the transamerica pyramid. dark and early for us this morning. 4:46 as we get started with the day. if you enjoyed the weekend, i'm assuming leaf looking, kari's forecast will look good out there. i got the words mixed up. >> monday will be a nice day. yeah, happens on a monday especially. as we talk about our air quality

it's a day where we are still going to have to monitor our north bay air quality. moderate as well as the south bay. look at how much particulate matter in the air. not too high at this point. just slightly above the 50 threshold we look for. below that it is good air quality. we are going to be watching out for the potential of a high fire danger in the north bay. now the winds start to pick up this morning and the northerly wind gusts will increase up to 30 to 45 miles per hour. those sustained winds at times will reach up to 10 to 25 miles an hour and humidity levels will be very low dropping below 30% so later tonight we will watch our north bay hills. that's after today as we continue to see some warm weather for our valleys with our south bay highs reaching up to 88 degrees in morgan hill. we're also going to see upper 80s for much of the east bay reaching up to 86 in danville.

90 degrees and then the 70s by the weekend. we have the potential of an offshore wind event. now we'll also see our temperatures in the low 70s for san francisco but it will get much cooler as we head closer to the weekend. now over to mike, how is it looking for the commute? looking great. i don't want to jinx anything. green sensors dominate the screen. maybe smaller incidents on surface streets. not a major issue for the commute. right now it's clear and should be clearing in the next hour. i've circled the golden gate bridge where there's a fog advisory. the bay bridge has low clouds hovering around. there's a little bit of a threat coming down but not a problem for visibility for the drivers through the area.

we'll track if it's evolved. we'll see what happens. >> check out this developing story here. a man wanted for barricading himself on one of those lots at paramount studios in hollywood. so we're told this all started when police were trying to take a sexual assault suspect into custody, trying to use a taser on him. he got away so lapd was called in to help. officers shot at the suspect before he ran, barricading himself inside one of the buildings at the studio. he was finally arrested overnight. governor newsom is responding to an ""l.a. times"" report saying a spy plane was used to monitor the sacramento area enabled where the head of california's national guard lives.

relatively peaceful. the governor says changes have since been made. the head of the guard major general baldwin tells the "l.a. times" the location of the home had nothing to do with that deployment. an "l.a. times" report of an abusive incident at california's four privately run i.c.e. detention centers. the report cites 250 calls reporting violence and abuse at four facilities. about half of those have been sex crimes. in only three cases did records show someone being charged. i.c.e. says it's committed to providing a safe environment and zero tolerance for abuse. the state has ordered all four to close within eight years' time. new this morning an uptick in gun sales during the pandemic. a new study by uc davis
