so we have delays in the cash and the fastrak lanes. beautiful shot of the sun coming up, as well. but traffic unfortunately that doesn't look as good. that's stacking up beyond the first overcrossing. >> up the incline this is why they turned the metering lights on. a tight squeeze from treasure island. you can see some brake lights across the stretch at andrade with roadwork. high 4 just cleared the -- highway 4 just cleared an accident off the right-hand shoulder, westbound 4 at a street, lone tree way. delays continue through antioch. past there speeds over 40 miles an hour. through pittsburg-bay point and concord. 880 in oakland busy but no delays from hayward towards downtown oakland. looks great for the simple sill commute. mass transit delay-free all morning systemwide for bart, ace, muni, caltrain and ferries. that's "timesaver traffic." here's lawrence with the traffic. >> a lot of sunshine and we are going to have high pressure strengthening. a lot of high clouds overhead out the door but should be a great day. warm temperatu

the metering lights were turned on a little while ago and we have delays in the cash and fastrak lanes you are heading towards sfo from the east bay you're going to have a wait to get you through those pay gates and stacking up towards about the 880 overcrossing. elsewhere, i mentioned a couple of different accidents. we are following two separate traffic alerts. there is another accident westbound 237 actually approaching the lawrence expressway. so this is a live look from milpitas where we already have a few brake lights across that stretch. bart would be a great option and they have more than 47 trains on time. i know lawrence has been very busy with his hi-def doppler tracking the storm. >> it looks like it's beginning to break you want a little bit around the bay area this morning but we're seeing pockets of rain outside so the roads as you see very dangerous and slick outside. be very careful this morning if you are traveling. let's take you in for a closer look now into san jose and that's where we are seeing some of the rain where the accident is continuing to fall in that dir

we started to see delays in the cash and fastrak lanes then. on the maps we are watching a couple of different problems. first the approaches to the bay bridge still look good. but if you are heading through the caldecott tunnel eastbound 24, this is going against the commute, we do have a stall in the tunnel so it is partially blocking that one eastbound bore that's open right now. so expect some delays heading out of oakland towards orinda. westbound still looks good. also in the south bay northbound 101 approaching capitol expressway. we have an accident there. it is still there blocking one lane. possibly a second accident near tully is off to the right-hand shoulder. but this is what it's doing to the drive time. a little stop and go from 280 towards 237. 280 through downtown looks great and the guadalupe parkway no delays. a quick note of course it's monday night football tonight at candlestick. 49ers and bears, 5:30 is game time. so expect some delays along 101, 280 maybe a better option if you are cruising along that area later on this

you can see the wait in all lanes in the cash and fastrak lanes stacking up beyond that first overcrossing in the distance i would say probably about 15 minutes to get you on to the bridge. and it's pretty crowded up the incline. we just checked a camera there, as well. this is just your usual commute. no incidents at the bay bridge this morning. if you are heading into san francisco from the peninsula from 280 we have this camera this morning near the mariposa exit. northbound and southbound 280 both moving at the limit. let's go to our maps show you more live traffic cameras. this is what it looks like eastbound 24 at wilder. we are getting word of what sounds like not an accident but a big rig lost its trailer. the trailer is in one lane so again that's going against the commute heading towards orinda. we'll let you know if it causes any further delay. westbound 24 looks good from walnut creek out towards the maze. that is your "timesaver traffic." for more on a pretty foggy forecast, here's lawrence. >> the sea breeze is kicking back in. temperatures really going to drop off around the
