this was in the lanes here in hayward southbound 880 at whipple. i believe that has been cleared in the last few minutes. you see a dip in the speeds. we would typically see that monday through thursday because of the volume building, but we don't see it coming out of san leandro. i think it's because of the crash clearing. there may be an issue at the bay bridge toll plaza. there's no slowing that shows up. we'll check in on it. get ready to go for gold bay area. we are just two weeks away from the summer games in tokyo. the olympic flame is burning bright this -- there this morning. the ceremony was held earlier today to mark its arrival in tokyo. this comes after the japanese government announced no fans in the stands due to a surge in covid cases. it also forced tokyo leaders to pull the torch relay off capital streets allowing it to run only on the remote islands off the tokyo coast. once again, opening ceremonies take place two weeks from today

responsibility of the afghan people alone to decide their future and how they want to run their country. >> no super power, not the british, russians, the americans have been able to build afghanistan. neither have the afghans for that matter. we may see the taliban overrun the government. you're not going to hear criticism from the powerful republican on that decision. the moment president biden announced the withdraw, former president trump said getting out is a wonderful and positive thing to do. here he is planning a withdraw back in the 2019 state of the union. ask. >> we are working to finally end america's longest war and bring our troops back home. >> the president today will sign an executive order that will in his words promote the american economy and we have seen an advanced copy. all kinds of interesting ideas like the right to repair something yourself instead of having to take it back to the place you bought it.

clear. finally, right. we're going to see some of the sunshine also for the inland valleys, but it's not going to be so pleasant today. let's take a look at our high temperatures reaching into the mid 90s and east san jose and los gatos, 97, 100 today in morgan hill. and we are looking at also highs over 100 degrees from the tri-valley to walnut creek over to antioch, 106 there today, but a bit milder in oakland reaching the upper 70s. upper 80s in palo alto. daly city 64. you can see the wide range in temperatures we'll have across the bay area even in san francisco. our north bay temperatures 85 in mill valley, 95 santa rosa, 107 in ukiah. we are seeing a change in our whipped direction and i wanted to show you how hot it's going to be in antioch these next few days. okay. so we're up to the triple digits today and tomorrow. slightly hotter. 109. still pretty hot on sunday.

then you can see the relief coming next week. we'll head back to the 80s for highs. it's going to continue for the rest of next week. so our inland temperatures we have to stick it out through the next few days. excesspping for a lot of our inland spots to the low 90s and then mid 80s for many of our microclimates in the valleys for early next week. san francisco, we're looking at low to mid 70s here. we'll bring you back to the 60s as the fog returns next week. mike, how is it looking for the morning commute? >> it looks all right but the look at the chp report sounded dramatic here at the toll plaza. reports of a semi truck that was wedged into the toll plaza after a pick-up truck hit it and wedged it in there. it wasn't really wedged as badly and there were no major injuries reported. i saw a tow truck arrive and pause for about three minutes. right at the very edge of the screen and just cleared off just
