that's on the eastbound side after treasure island. there are two lanes now open, so traffic is crawling on by. three lanes remain blocked and there's no estimated time on when it will remain open. the latest chp report does look like they're hooking some vehicles onto a tow truck as of the latest so that could mean they'll clear that out a little quicker. as i was walking over here, i saw another issue pop up possibly just behind that sig alert. i'll immediately go look into that as soon as i get off this report. i want to let you know, there's no estimated time as of right now. again, only two lanes are open. three lanes remain blocked along eastbound 80 right after treasure island. let's send things over to kari for a look at the weather. >> we start out this morning with a look at some of our clear skies and cool temperatures as we head over towards concord. we'll be in the low 60s at 9:00. we go from 61 to 81 at 2:00 and it continues to warm from there. we do have some very warm weather. as you get ready to wake the kids up and he
