it will be sunny, a beautiful day. just not very warm. st.helena/kenwood, the coldest i could bust muster up here -- i could muster up here. 34 at oakland airport, san francisco, 41. but there are a lot of upper 30s in the city. napa did not set a low. sanjose, 36. here's tori. >> all right. thank you, steve. two minutes after 8:00. today is one of the busiest travel days of the year as people head off to their thanksgiving destinations. some travelers are calling for a national day of protest over new airport screening procedures. claudine wong is at sfo sfo now to tell us how things are going there. >> reporter: good morning, tori. yes, if people are protesting we haven't seen anything that's actually slowed things down on sfo. i want to show you the security line. it's getting busier. it's kind of picked up in the last half hour.

things are still moving pretty slow through here. you take a look behind the -- behind the body scanner. you either have to go through there or you have to go through pat-down to get through security and on to your gate. when we talk about security in general, it is very tight. you see that? that's actually a camera. more than 1500 at sfo. we just took a look at who was actually watching that camera. we went inside the security control center to see what was happening inside that area. what you are looking at really is -- is something that's one- of-a-kind in a world according to the airport spokesperson. this was designed for tsa and the contractors to keep an eye on the 1500-plus cameras that are in and around the airport. they can literally track you from your car all the way in. any public area in the airport or around the airport is fair game. that's one of the things they say they are doing just to keep

everyone safe. when you talk about a protest like the one you are talking about today, one of the things that it wants to do is delay people and that's one the things that passengers we talk to say he we don't want to happen. >> i agree. i don't mind at all the extra security measures if it means a safer -- safer travel. >> body scan or'? >> whatever is most efficient. >> i don't have a problem with it. to me, it's great. i would rather be safe. >> so body scan or -- body scan or'? >> either. it doesn't matter me. >> these are part of the new stepped-up security measures from the tsa. you know, if you choose the bodzy scan, that takes about 20 seconds. if you choose the pat-down takes about a minute.

protesters want passengers to take the longer -- take the locker taking one to make a point to -- longer taking one to make a point to security. this is actually about the most people we've seen all day. we do expect another rush to happen in the next couple of hours. this is how the traffic ebbs and flows. 120,000-plus, expected to fly out of sfo alone today. travelers we talked to said we're -- they simply want to get to their destination. >> all right. thank you, claudine. we've been czeching in at mineta airport is -- clerking in at mineta airport all morning where officials are expecting the crowds to be the same last year -- as last year. most flights were very full today with about 90% or more
