into the maze. a live look, it is a crawl heading towards san francisco. travel time almost an hour to go from the maze into the city. it is looking better on the san mateo bridge. that is a 12 minute commute. if you want to use that as an alternate, that will work much better. that's a look at traffic. a lot quieter on the forecast side of things. we are starting the morning pretty clear. there are a few high clouds which helped keep temperatures a little milder than they were yesterday. oakland is 47 degrees now. it's 49 at sfo and san jose is also three degrees shy of 50. it feels good there. if you are in the inland valley, santa rosa 41, we go back and forth between reporting fog and now. right now you are down to less than a mile on the visibility in the north bay. be aware of that in the north bay valleys. in general it is not a widespread fog issue on your drive. it is that issue on the bay bridge which we are watching closely and gianna is updating

desperately needed nurses away from the job. nurses union surveyed thousands of nurses nationwide and say the results found that 82.5% said at least half of their shifts were unsafely staffed. so today they're demanding a change. rns and caregivers across the bay area from san francisco to oakland, even san jose, plan to participate in today's picketing. justin andrews, kpix5. happening tomorrow, new statewide workplace rules will ifit h sk, it has ublelayer. the ate is also trying to avoid people passing off someone else's negative test as their own. it's requiring tests to be taken in person with their employer on through a testing service. if you are looking for a test or a booster, check our county by county resource guide at kpix.com. 6:07. a live look from san francisco

where charges have been dropped against a man who suffered serious injuries during what his attorneys call an illegal arrest. the incident happened last february in the castro. these are the injuries suffered. the public defender's office says he was walking down the street when two officers approached and attempted to search him without probable cause. when he tried to walk away, he was allegedly tackled to the ground and pinned down. then a third officer started hitting him repeatedly. lugo was holding an exacto knife which cut one of the officers when he was taken down. he was accused of assault with a deadly weapon and a number of other crimes. prosecutors have now dropped those charges. the police chief bill scott released a statement saying, quote, i am disappointed with the district attorney's decision in this case. mr. lugo resisted arrest and violently assaulting our officers including one with an exacto knife.

free woman for at least another eight months according to a new court filing. holmes is free on a half million dollars bond, is awaiting sentencing on four federal convictions. attorneys on both sides have agreed to put that off until at least september. that's likely because her former partner and alleged coconspirator still has to stand trial. sonoma's new health order to limit large gatherings is already having a major impact on local events. russian river brewing company announcing it's postponed annual release of the pliny the younger event until march 25. the event normally draws more than $5 million to the local economy. now it will have to wait. >> last year we had to cancel because of covid. this year we had to postpone because of covid. i think every year is an improvement. next year hopefully we'll be able to have it on time. >> many grocery store shelves are empty across the country but this time it is not panic

>> i heard from residents who already started implementing and it does seem to work. it does have them scatter from the tree. we'll try that for a few weeks and ultimately see if that actually works. >> the plan to use lasers has been met with some push back but humane society describes the tactic as humane harassment and has worked in other areas. we are going to get a check on our weather and traffic. we will start with gianna franco and that big back up on the bay bridge. any improvements there? not yet. travel times are getting worse. it's about an hour plus now to get through the maze into san francisco. you are looking live at salesforce camera at the upper deck of the bay bridge. this happened just after 5:00 this morning, was caused by two cars racing on the upper deck going west bound into san francisco. you had a box truck and another vehicle involved in the actual crash. three left lanes are blocked until further notice leaving only a couple for traffic to

squeeze by. there is still a lot of activity on the scene. it is just a miserable drive heading into san francisco. showing you our maps, we are seeing speeds down to about four miles per hour. it is just crawling along. the back up is well into the maze. the metering lights were turned on at the bay bridge toll plaza and you see stop and go traffic there all the way back into the maze. pack your patience and give yourself extra time. if you can wait it out, that might be your best bet. you can take alternates, try to use the san mateo bridge. that's a minute ride from 880 across the bay as opposed to over an hour. i just checked bart and everything is on time for public transit. that's a good bet as well. avoid the bay bridge. we will keep you updated and posted on changes or if things clear. it is also busy into the altamont pass, our other trouble spot. we have a back up into tracy

onto 580 to about grant line. it improves from that point as you head to the 680 connector. east shore freeway ride is okay despite the back up at the bay bridge toll plaza, 15 minutes west 80 from highway 4 to the maze. that's a look at your morning ride. hopefully darren has better news. >> that makes for a nice hand off. far fewer issues, there is some patchy fog in the north bay valleys but it is not widespread. it's like the rest of the week has been. it will be smooth sailing from the standpoint on the drive in and it's a degree or two warmer than it was yesterday at this time. a pretty view shows the scene from the top of the mark hopkins hotel over sutro tower. the city looks fine. temperatures are also even relative warm with 48 in hayward, 47 san jose. it's only 41 in santa rosa. that's still cold, don't get me wrong. but it's not in the 30s. switching our perspective, we will put the visibility map. you see we've got visibility to

a little less than a mile for santa rosa. 0.8 telling us you can only see 0.8 of a mile down the road. that's really the only area you have to watch. everywhere else of andaytime highs that will climb to the mid 60s by that 2:00, 3:00 hour today. a real pretty afternoon in that regard, replay what yesterday felt like. that's what today will feel like. daytime highs, low to mid 60s. milpitas goes to 61, palo alto 62, union city 60. numbers for inland valley of the east bay is in the 60s. san ramon will go to 61. mill valley hits 59, richmond 59. it will be 63 in windsor. the same pattern holds for the next few days. we don't see a lot of change.
