josh, marina and stratus, thank you for joining us.is in hopes that their shelves are stocked for the holidays. todd: cheryl casone from our sister network fox business has all the details. cheryl: companies like home depot, costco, walmart, target and more have resorted to paying for their own ships to get goods to americans in time for the holidays. port backups, covid outbreaks and supply country worker shortages mean that toys, decorations, appliances and furniture may be delayed. what usually takes 40 days now takes 80 days for shipping transport. some are pointing the finger at the biden administration. >> where are they on addressing the shipping problem or trying to unclog the ports. the answer is they're absent without leave. the biden administration wants to regulate shipping rates. it said so even before we had this crisis. that throws more sand if the gears. cheryl: large companies are absorb the cost on a temporary basis. small businesses are really the ones that are in jeopardy in all of this. carley: and what, cheryl, is

these are some low level stratus right the old stratus what's it look like stratus yeah, it's just niceting looking for sure nothing that's going to result in any rainfall today. today is about the only day can be saying that, though. >> after today we work our way into what is again, a very wet weather pattern. and honestly a wetter weather pattern that we've seen in a long time tomorrow. thursday friday saturday, sunday and monday. all bringing rainfall to us. we will get breaks in there from time to time which will be breaking down your full forecast. this morning, though, it's just nice and dry. some blue skies piercing through some of those low clouds and a push in across the bay cloud cover will gradually increase towards the latter part of the day. you'll notice skies getting a little gray towards the late afternoon 40's and 50's for current temperatures. san francisco and alameda each in the low 50's. well, fairfield and saint our last 2 spots holding on to the upper 30's right thank you for that. we've got 2 new hot spots that just popped up in the same area pretty much so this

today's going to be our most consistently cloudy day, you know, to some future cast that low stratus is not breaking through the day tomorrow does come along with some morning sprinkles, as you saw just a second ago for portions of upper elevations of the inland east baseball specially the south bay most of the bay area going to be dodging this. look at what we have in the sierra, though noticeable rainfall up in the sierra foothills and once you head into higher elevations of the sierra. our first significant snow of the season that a super good news dry out and clear out midday tomorrow. lots of for the giants dodgers game. and then we see a resurgence of cloud cover tomorrow night in your pre dawn hours of saturday maybe a sprinkle or 2 rolling across the bay. after that, the rest of saturday clears out beautifully in nicely with lots of sunshine and even warmer temperatures into the 70's for fleet week weekend. now today's daytime highs 50's 60's for coastal spots and that includes san francisco staying cloudy weather. you're at the coast or further inland. so this is one day pul

you're berkeley hills view as it has all morning long is still showing that blanket of stratus overheadhrough the morning and more and more sunshine is what we're going to be tapping into. temperatures have remained cool in the 50's san francisco, one of the more mild spots along with petaluma still at 57 later today, though, a lot to look forward to. it will be giving the breakdown on that all still to come right now. don, thank you for that. looks like we do have a hot spot this morning. we were talking about this accident out in lafayette now saying, you know, it's not on. >> the westbound side of the eastbound side. 24 here. pleasant hill drive. well, it looks like that accident has 2 lanes that are currently blocked. so if you are traveling east, you are going to see some delays because of that accident in lafayette again in the south. they've got some accident southbound 1, 1, north of blossom hill road. another one further down southbound 1, one. and for now road in san jose. so while we are starting to see some delays along you this morning into the city a little under 22 minute

with me now to discuss all that, that's going on in facebook and the tech stratus fear.re back with us. katie, you wrote in an article for buzz feed detailing that facebook company is rebranding and their new names meta, tell me what you learn about this. why are they pushing this bright promise of a toep tan future -- is it too late for them to take the advise of buzz feed news readers and change their name again? . . . . . . . . . . . and in fact even on instagram, they're starting to lose teenagers and meta verse is very gaing heavy. >> josh, that whole keynote conversation, it was bizarre visually. it was so weird and except the strangest thing was the barbecue bottle of sweet baby rays behind mark zuckerberg on the show. what in the world is that about? using lash cue sauce as a bookend there. >> i didn't looked too fine into it. it feels like a distraction. i don't care about the barbecue sauce or the name is good. the thing is terrifying. the question real is should they be doing this and talking about the barbecue sauce and what it means or meta is markable. and

he joins us not to tells all about his plans let's welcome back to the show brooklyn dumping shop stratusk you for having me. >> it is wonderful to hear you're navigating these difficult times you are expanding. explain it to us where are you going? is it because some environments or more business friendly what is allowing it to allow you to branch out instead of shutting down like so many others. >> we found that many silver linings during covid. a chophouse that the largest restaurant week in times square's that was back in may 2020. with the brooklyn dumpling shop i had one 100% contactless restaurant in 2019. an eerily enough i hate to use these words it was pretty good timing but we actually did this before covid. when culvert hit even before we opened were like the first restaurant that sold over 50 franchises before we even opened. now we are past 100 franchises sold around the nation but we are in every city and state from texas, austin, dallas, florida, atlanta georgia at about 50 locations in the tri-state area. and it has been overwhelming. the timing was perfect for the automa

there's no fog out there, but there's a lot of low clouds a lot of like stratus and cloud cover fromre, which is i keep pointing it out. but it's got a lot going on. look at all that behind it. there's one coming in around the horn to right there. so there's just they're lining up out in the pacific. they want to get here. it's a very encouraging pattern right now, from my perspective, just because there's real good energy up there in the storm production area, and that's what we want to see. and so. that's what's happening now is this is you know if this was november, this would be a very cold, low snow level, rainy, showery kind of event, but this is early october, and so that dynamics aren't really there. the moistures here certainly, but the lift that you need to really get these things going, the organization is not present. so right now, temperatures are generally in the fifties. it's been cool overnight. you know some of the spots you're going to this little wind sheltered north bay valleys. you're finding upper forties. this low pressure center is what's doing the cooling. we

yesterday we saw the blanket of stratus overhead today.unshine out there and tomorrow is going to bring plenty more of that sunshine as well today, tomorrow and friday are warmer days with highs in the 70's. so if that's what you've been looking forward no definitely savor these next couple of days. 60's at the coast 70's for most of our bayshore cities daly city down to half moon bay all in the 60's while millbrae burlingame in the low 70's 73 in san mateo foster city in redwood city each at 72 south bay temperatures low 70's with san jose at 71 as much as 10 degrees warmer for parts of the bay area than yesterday. pleasanton one of those spots up to 73 walnut creek up to 74. in the meantime, you hold on to the 60's and oakland-berkeley as well as bill. a home right on the 70 degree mark today and santa rosa up from yesterday's upper 50's 2.71 today. so big jump in temperatures for sure. and tomorrow is going to be a little warmer yet. friday also looks really good. now, saturday night. we will see a slight chance of a few sprinkles. noth

definitely a change from where we were yesterday when those stratus clouds hung with us all day longt happy to sunshine. that's because high pressure is building victim back in now replacing that little weak system that really just skirted the region yesterday, calm winds of the cherry on top of the sunshine and 70's that we do have and skies remain dry out there. lots of sunshine today, tomorrow holding on to that sunshine, too. and we're also going to be looking at daytime highs tomorrow. just a little warmer than today's it's going to be the same into friday as well. now, today's daytime highs range from the 60's at the coast 70's for most of our bayshore cities. there are a good mix of 60's along the bayshore to in san bruno brisbane on over to oakland these areas. hang out in the mid to upper 60's today in the meantime, low 70's for the south bay just showed you san jose. you'll be at 71 this afternoon. low 70's in pleasanton dublin on up through walnut creek and concord. where is antioch will be right at 70 degrees. fillet haute nearing that mark at 69 and then we've got center

we're going to be seeing this low stratus throughout the course of your day with partly cloudy skiesthe afternoon and well temperatures. as i mentioned, a lot cooler. so it feels just like fall get even cooler into thursday and friday. right now we're in the 50's and 60's. so throw on the sweater and the jackets that you've been well and are waiting to pull out while we were so hot the past couple of days reyna thought that you that still have the hot spot we've been following. >> this down in san jose. so northbound 6.80, north of jackson avenue. they're all lanes still closed. again, they're diverting traffic off of jackson. you could take one. oh, one to 8.80, or road if you're trying to stay on 6.80 there. another accident. one. oh, one northbound north of tully road in san jose. so again, things are pretty backed up along one. oh, one in 6.80, into the city. we go a little under 21 minutes at an earlier accident they're not there any longer. still a little under 21 minutes from the maze to that fremont street exit here in hayward, 80 southbound north of west. a street. you have

have been the fog layer right the straightest layer, but now it's just call that little clouds are stratust some higher clouds overhead coming in from that system. it's a significant weather system for this time of year. now it's unrelated. essentially everything's related, but it's not really connected directly connected to what happened in southern california last night. but this system as it comes in, we'll drench the pacific northwest will drench parts of portland or western oregon up along the coast. there you can see the size of it the it's not bad. i mean, that's a good looking system. i really liked it. i mean look at that. look at that. look at that. talk about atmospheric river. what's that? 3000 miles this? i'll be back to the islands. that's a heck of a. yeah it's just not pointed our way the it's going and it's also splitting in half this system is being torn apart. if it wasn't i think we'd be getting rained. i think last week we talked a lot about that. the chances now by friday, we get another system a weaker one that will kind of come through to the north of us. it could b

done a better job of messaging how deep this tax increase is going to go, deep down into the income stratusre could be better messaging and i frankly concur that republicans have been complicit with democrats in the spending over the years that have gottens us to this point. but where we are now is on steroids and something that democrats are looking to pursue on a partisan agenda and i think when you specifically talk about energy prices, when the president yesterday says we're going to investigate these rising energy prices, investigate energy companies, what he should do is walk to the other end of the west wing and investigate his own administration. when you're closing down -- basically authorizing nord stream two to authorize more natural gas from russia, and closing down the keystone pipeline and limiting supply as demand comes up, of course prices will increase. that's a huge tax really on middle and lower income americans who really are the ones who are driving to work and often the furrest distances -- furthest distances for blue collar jobs. this is a tax on middle america. i thi
