>> it will pick up this evening. very warm today. nationally if it's quiet here it must be active everywhere else and that's about the case. you could see how everything goes up in over the ridge of high pressure and drops down. montana and north dakota into the plains and look at the low in the great lakes. most of the country has very active weather and as you can imagine, cool temperatures. some very cold ones as well. a lot of snow coming in over the next 5-7 days. not here. its record heat. we seen this so many times. sfo, 87 yesterday breaking the old mark of 85 in 1965. 80s for the forecast highs today. near 90. they are all away above. 82 and 60 for the city. they hit 60 and are now at 63. way above average on both. it looks like a pattern were not much will change but as that system digs into the intermountain region, the wind will pick up later tonight into tomorrow. not too bad now but it is a north, northeast direction from many locations around the bay already.

40s, the fees and 60s on the temperatures. sunshine and warm temperatures. one today and tomorrow with record highs possible as well as high fire danger into friday and probably saturday even though the wind will be decreasing 70s for a few. 80s to near 90 for many. sal is here and you would like to focus on what? east bay. we have a couple of items that may slow you down. let's take a quick look at the east shore freeway and show you they will take about 22 minutes to drive from the carquinez bridge to the macarthur maze and that is about a typical nutemior so to wait until you make it onto the span. all very typical. interstate 880 will be okay in oakland but southbound 880 dropping down to hayward is going to be slow because of a crash with a truck that spilled some debris in the lanes. southbound 880 him anytime after marina you will notice slow traffic heading to hayward.

this is a good time for you if you know your way around to avoid the freeway until after highway 92. if you can get on the freeway on 880 south after highway 92 him it will be much better. if you know those side streets, do that instead. also looking at 580, slow traffic from tracy over to livermore. the big story today. fire danger. look at the numbers. more than 180,000 pg&e customers waiting for pg&e to say if there will be public safety power shutoffs today. here in the bay area people in napa, sonoma and san mateo county anxiously waiting to hear pg&e's decision. cristina rendon is in santa rosa and pg&e is reminding customers a power shut off is to prevent wildfires. >> reporter: good morning. that's exactly right. they want to mitigate the threat of a wildfire. that's why they are considering

this public safety power shut up. the latest information pg&e is they have reduced the number of people that would be impacted by this across northern california but if it is a go, sonoma county would see the most outages in the bay area. you mention it already. 27,000 customers and that includes santa rosa and tense around the communities. pg&e closely monitoring the weather models and watching those weather conditions to make the determination. if they decide the wind is too strong and the weather poses a threat to the utilities, the rolling blackouts would begin at 2 pm in the sierra foothills. then here in sonoma county as well as napa county. 3 pm as the time the blackouts would happen. and for san mateo county, 1 am the thursday. they emphasize that shutting up power is the best way to prevent a fire during high wind events and they will work as closely as possible to restore power. >> we are looking to increase our ability to restore quickly
