contests in on back at 5:00 15. a bunch of politics on month. the republican presidential race picking up the pace in a big way. three contests scheduled to go off tomorrow. >> susan mcginnis joins us now from washington, d.c. mitt romney won big in the nevada caucuses over the weekend. what does that mean for tomorrow's contest and beyond? susan? >> reporter: good morning, frank and grace. it does help a lot. romney is certainly solidifying himself as the front runner at
5:16 am
least on the way to being the nominee but certainly nothing is for sure. we need to remember, this is still very early. but there is no doubt that going forward, the republicans are beginning to coalesce around him. this week, it is an important one. before things really slow down. colorado, minnesota, they are holding contests tomorrow. those will be important. they are supposed to go to romney. he does have greater funding and organization in those state than the other but primary,wise, things are about to slow down. it looks like romney will hold on to his lead for the time being. he has 97 delegates right now. and that is the most of all of the candidates but we also need to remember, this is only a small fraction of the total. there is a very, very long way to go. >> true, but the momentum seems to be all with romney right now. how about santorum and ron paul? i know they came in second and third and santorum won iowa but clearly they're in the back of the pack. is there any chat about them maybe breaking away and saying enough already? are they going through to at
5:17 am
least super tuesday? >> all of the chat about romney, about santorum and paul quitting, it is coming from others than santorum and paul. the two of them are sticking with. it they say they are going to go further. no interest in quiting so far. san forum came out and said he believes amid all of this, he has been losing since that iowa recount, and the candidates, he will gain strength and he says this race is a long, long way from being over. and ron paul came out and said, and he came pretty close to gingrich in nevada. 21 force 21% for gingrich and 19% for ron paul. and he gets energized because he knows there is a large number of people looking for another option and the undecideds are still a large portion of voters. >> we will be waufing. susan mcginnis, live in washington, d.c., thank you. it is 5:17 now.
5:18 am
and the manic monday, it would be this guy right here. >> we have a significant storm headed our way. right now, it is calm outside. some high clouds now moving across our skies. not going to get into the storm until probably tonight and that's when we see things kicking up quite a bit. and 40s and 50s around most of the bay area and this afternoon, we will watch the clouds begin to thicken up and likely to see the breezes kicking up especially near the coastline but the temperatures are still going to be running above average. well into the 60s. in many spots. and we should stay dry. for the better part of today. and dry weather for today. you can see the storm system off the coastline. it is tapping the subtropical moisture and pushing onshore later tonight. as it comes ashore, very tight pressure gradient, that means the winds will be kicking up, especially out toward the coastline, over the local mountain tops and glowing this afternoon. and into the evening hours, and then overnight tonight, maybe some gusts, 40 to 50 miles an hour. the computer models picking up on the system moving onshore and bring some showers in, as early as this evening and that may be a little bit quit. but overnight, you get the idea. the bulk of the rain is going to move onshore and it is heavy
5:19 am
at times. and because the subtropical nature of the system could drop a lot of rain, maybe an inch and a half, and the temperatures around the bay area. not bad. dry today. about 66 degrees above normal in san jose. and 67 in morgan hill and 62 in pacifica and east bay temperatures in the mid-60s and most spots by the afternoon. although the clouds are thickening up throughout the day. and a lot of 60s inside the bay. 64 degrees in san francisco. and about 65 degrees in santa rosa. so yes, not a bad day today, but late tonight, we are looking at heavy rainfall. some very strong gusty winds around the bay area. the rain turning to showers on tuesday. so not a complete rainout then. a return to dry weather as we look toward wednesday and thursday. that's a look at weather. back to you. thanks, lawrence. well dry weather makes commute not too bad. including this morning. no major issues up and down the nimitz. 880 through oakland. as you pass the coliseum. nice smooth ride to downtown and the drive time at the bottom of the screen. 15 minutes between 238 and the
5:20 am
maze. and elsewhere your bridges mostly moving at top speeds all across the bay area this morning. and a live look at the san mateo bridge. and westbound and eastbound 92 should both be about a 13 minute drive time. and now i mentioned there were reports of flooding in all lanes in the san mateo county. northbound 280 at edgewood road and all lanes are once again clear. chp got to the scene and they took it out of the incident report everything is good to go up and down 280. a couple of headlights toward the cupertino area. 101 in the green this morning. we're seeing top speed, and all of the drive times and they're doing great, it usually takes a little bit longer on monday to get going. that seems to be the case so far. a look at the time saver traffic camera across the golden gate bridge. a lane change around 5:00. and things are great from marin county to san francisco. for silicon valley commuters, these headlights coming around the bend, westbound 237 traffic, and leaving millipitas, and leaving off of 880 and heading toward san
