you can see a slowdown and typical through this marinwood and san rafael area, kind of a slower traffic there, 101 southbound. >> here's steve. thank you. we do have some breaks in the clouds. some rain to the south. but it -- it's really moving out of area. it's heading towards monterey, santa cruz mountains. the humidity is gonna be very high. before i get too far ahead of myself, for san francisco, it was a wetter july than january. for july, .08 fell which is 800% of normal. average july is 0. going back to january, remember we had 18 days of record highs and .06. january usually we get 4.50. things are weird here in july and august. tropical storm you'll yois following -- julio is following iselle but the weakening is taking place rapidly. it's expected to be a storm by the time it arrives on the big

here especially over highway 17 but it looks like that's moving out. but a little bit of rain, morgan hill to gilroy. clouds, sun, muggy, humid. light rain ending. any sun, boy, that temperature will jump up. would not surprise me if some areas got 90s. 87 concord. after yesterday's 74. 90s, pittsburg, antiock -- antioch, brentwood. it will be cooler, though, morgan hill and gilroy. they were 88 and 90. today more clouds. they will drop a couple of degrees. still very muggy, humid. 73 in the city. and 70 in half moon bay. had some light rain on parts of the coast. a little bit of drizzle, sausalito picked up some rain. fog is not going anywhere. the high clouds are and a cooldown over the weekend. well, it's not just edward

victim and that is encouraging search and rescue teams. the 88-year-old woman was found buried alive two days after her house collapsed around her. chinese officials say she's now at a hospital where doctors are treating her for several injuries. >> wow. 7:25. the husband of a second american aide worker diagnosed with ebola says his wife is weak but she's improving. 59-year-old nancy writebol arrived in atlanta yesterday. she was working with sim usa. her husband still in liberia said the family was considering planning her funeral. but now he's optimistic about her recovery. sim usa plans to bring him home to be with his wife while she undergoes treatment. as nancy writebol was arriving in atlanta for her treatment, president obama was addressingle ebola crisis in washington. he spoke at the u.s. african business leaders summit. he recognized their hard work

bay, this is a little heads up for you if you live near santa rosa in bennett valley, we have three chihuahuas running into the roadway at grange road, it looks like. be aware of it. right now we're gonna take a look at the maps. 580 westbound through the livermore area, so traffic as usual is backed up in this direction. so this is obviously making it a little bit worse. at the bay bridge tacoma, those metering lights have been on since 5:45 this morning. so you can see you are gonna need some extra time. things are begin to ease up. hopefully the trend will continue. 280 down in san jose, traffic again has been very sluggish because of a car that was stalled. it has been cleared. it was cleared probably around -- i would say five minutes after 7:00. you can see the after corrects of that. give yourself extra time if you live in the area. 7:32. back to the desk. >> thank you. new this morning, the chp has now made an arrest after a car flew off a freeway in concord this morning and smashed right into a car

dealership. christien kafton says this is not the first time there's been a problem on this particular section of freeway. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. this is not the first time this has happened. the sun is up now. we've been out here since 4:00. you can get a clearer sense of how much damage was done by the car. you can see the entire back end of one car bashed in. the left rear quarter panel of it vehicle smashed in. the driver of the car involved is under arrest under suspicion of driving while intoxicated. [horn honking] >> that blaring horn give us a sense of what the scene was like. the scene has been cleared. we're starting to put together a pretty clear picture of what happened. it appears the car left the offramp off i-680 crossed the median, took out a sign in the process, then crossed the

onramp to i-680, then crossed a culvert and smashed into two cars at niello infiniti. the driver survived the crash. crews pulled him and he was taken to an area hospital. the chp said he was then placed under arrest. workers here at niello say spinouts are common. cars pick up too much speed at i-680 at the burnest avenue offramp and lose control, sometimes ending up right here in this car lot. >> this is the third one i know where they came through the fence and landed on cars. this is nothing compared to some of the cars that we've had smashed. >> reporter: workers here say things have improved since caltrans added the signs that you see now. they've added texture to the road which helps cars get better traction. for commuters, as you can see the offramp off i-680 and the

onramp from bunnette, both of those are clear. it should be a minimal impact on the commute. we're live in concord, christien kafton, ktvu channel 2 news. new questions about the long-term durability of the new eastern span of the bay bridge. concord state senator mark desonya will ask kamala harris to launch a criminal investigation. caltrans managers were accused of telling inspectors to ignore serious welding problems when parts were being made in china. the transportation secretary testified he ordered the chp to investigate allegations of bridge officials retaliating against engineers who criticized how the bridge was built. 7:35. there are new concerns about passenger safety at mineta san jose airport. a woman with a history of trying to stowaway on flights was arrested on suspicion of sneaking onto a southwest airlines jet bound for l.a.x.

brian flores is in san jose with fallout from the latest security breach. good morning, brian. >> reporter: good morning. yeah, there was a lot of concern from several passengers this morning we spoke with. while no harm was done in this incident, the concern is how this woman was able to go through security and pass southwest employees and catch a flight into southern california. now, 62-year-old marilyn hartman was arrested at l.a.x. last night after she was able to somehow bypass security here at mineta airport, then take southwest flight 3785 to l.a.x. she did not have a boarding pass. hartman, a known stowaway, had attempted to previously board flights headed to hawaii from sfo, four previous times but was never able to take a flight. she was able to here in san jose. it remains unclear how she was able to bypass security and get by southwest employees. southwest says public safety was never compromised but in a statement, the tsa says this individual was screened along

with all other passengers to ensure she was not a security threat to the aircraft. following an initial review by tsa at san jose airport, the agency has initiated minor modifications to the layout of the document checking area to prevent another incident like this one. still, though, some passengers are concerned this morning. >> well, it changed drastically, we have to put our hands up now and take our laptops out of our bags. it changed a lot. i feel like it's more secure. >> yeah. >> this is really surprising. >> a little scary that she's able to do that. doesn't really sound like, you know, if she -- just a normal person to be able to do that, you know. >> reporter: now, this incident comes after a 15-year-old boy was able to jump a fence here at the airport, climb under the wheel well of a hawaii-bound flight. airport officials emphasize these two incidents are not related because hartman was screened. this is not sitting well with

eric squallwell who says yesterday's incident was an apparent failure by airport security and the airline. in the meantime, hartman is being held in los angeles on $500 bail. we're live here in san jose, brian flores, ktvu channel 2 news. >> thank you, brian. the santa clara county board of supervisors has extended a ban on medical marijuana dispresenceries in unincorporated parts of the county. the board voted for the moratorium yesterday. under current zoning regulations, dispensaries could request permits to operate in four locations all bordering the city of san jose. but this new moratorium prevents that from happening. >> at the same meeting, the hotly contested illegal immigration issue was discussed. santa clara supervisors voted to move forward with an idea who house children who crossed

be 21. he also says people who drive under the influence of marijuana should be held accountable and the extra tax revenue should go back to cities and counties. newsom made the comments yesterday while speaking of a meeting at the marin county bar association in green bay. a very important step will be taken today in an effort to keep the as in oakland. in less than an hour from right now, the oakland alameda county coliseum authority will hold a special meeting. they will consider finalizing a deal with the oakland as. it's a ten-year lease for the team to be at the coliseum. both the oakland city council and the alameda county board of supervisors agreed to the deal last month. now it just needs the coliseum authority's final approval and that is expected. san mateo county's second highest ranking judge needed not guilty to misdemeanor drunk driving charges. 63-year-old joseph scott was arrested in redwood city over memorial day weekend. it happened during a traffic
