the scene looked like earlier this morning. you see that big rigs completely turned over lots of damage. crews have been trying to not only clean up the oil and gas. it's coming from that, but also trying to get back on its right side. and you can actually even see here, those tires are completely been back. so it's going to take some time for them to get that back on its right side. we have a live look of what it looks like right now. alameda county fire department is on the scene. those lanes to get onto 8.80, southbound completely closed off. again. this has been the scene for the last 5 to 6 hours as to when it's going to open back up. only time will tell. we did ask for an eta first. the were saying 4 to 5 hours as of right now, they said this actually could last throughout the entire day. we're going to put our graphics for traffic backup on the screen because in addition to that, there's another accident that just came back in on the opposite. way up to 38. those southbound lanes. so this is near east 14th street there. some currently some lanes are blocked. so you're going to see some delays if you're heading the opposite way. but in addition to that, before you get to that connector,

there's another accident. we're seeing some residual delays. chp says it's been cleared, but they're still seeing a lot of major backups from both accidents. and if we take a look at 5.80, over near the dublin area, you can see it's starting to back up. so if you are looking for an alternative route to get towards the stanley lorenzo area, you may want to actually try to take 6.80 altogether because right now most of it is going to be backed up for the entire morning. i will give you a live look of the bay bridge right now. everything does look good. 24 minute commute into the city jonasson that a bridge looking great with all that sunshine hurting either something that we're going to see for the vast majority of the bay area all day long today. >> unless you're at the coastline, in which case you've got this a little look at the golden gate bridge right there with some of that fog that is keeping our coastal area school. visibility is fine unless you're in spots like half moon bay are right along the coast. temperatures are rising really quickly. now, san mateo san

evening. he surrendered at his brentwood mansion. the trial began in 1995. with an all-star lineup of lawyers nicknamed the dream team one by one. they dismantled the state's evidence claiming systematic racism and sloppy police work. the defining moment came when simpson tried on gloves that were left at the murder scene. he struggled to put them on and his lawyers use that in closing arguments to show it couldn't possibly be him. >> remember these words? if it doesn't fit? we must acquit. >> shortly after simpson was found not guilty, he went to trial again for the murders. but this time in civil court, he was found liable for brown and goldman deaths there and ordered to pay more than 30 million dollars in damages. almost a decade later, simpson wrote a book called if i did it and help half the size, how he would have committed the murders. the book and

be. >> not paying attention to intersection. san jose keeps track of its car crashes on a public database so far this year we have seen twice as many fatal car crashes compared to just this time last year. so many of the through ways that run through san jose rack up quite a few deaths from bad data set. but none may be more dangerous that monterey road, which between 2018, 2023 logged 6 teen road fatalities here. when we most awesome and get it right now that we're talking to max off the corner of monterey and tully. and as we chat. >> cars driving into the bike lane. they're supposed to be separated by these posts. you work towards. designing our streets holistically. the public data also shows san jose's years long campaign to improve its roads like installing those bike lane markers and transforming final through ways in the summer. i grew up on this section of brandon road right here. a couple decades ago. you had 3 lanes and 3 lanes of cars going within 40 miles an hour

little longer than you'd like on the east bay shoreline. >> where we are seeing skies nice and clear and sunny up about heading into the inland east bay today. and you're about to be looking at temperatures in 80's for spots like antioch, a warm and sunny day. absolutely love what i'm seeing there now. step out of the way of what it can hiding for saturday, which is something maybe at this point a lot of us are like really again. but great to see the moisture. it just falls during the weekend. the timing of it, maybe not ideal. so from today's 80's in antioch to just 50's and that same exact location come saturday was showers through the day. so they'll be planning a lot on your saturday. skies are going to stay clear for most of the bay area. sure, right along the coastline, high pressure ridge, ensuring that we have another warm and dry day before tomorrow we start or cool down that low really dives deep on in and saturday, especially is going to be the coolest, the wettest one of the forecast. let's time it out. hour by hour skies. clear today. nice and warm tomorrow. deep in marine layer, cooler

temperatures. lot of cloud cover overhead too friday just kind of feels like earlier in the season. again, come tomorrow night after 10:00pm. we'll start to see some showers. heaviest of rainfall moves in after midnight on friday night into saturday morning. and with it some colder air that results in yet again, some more snow on our bay area. mountaintops. we'll get a brief breather from the rain as you're getting up on saturday morning. capitalize on that walk the dog before a chance of heavy rainfall towards the middle of the day and into the afternoon could come along with some thunderstorm development as well towards the latter half of your saturday. you add all this up and we could see anywhere between a half to even an inch of rainfall. just pretty much on saturday alone. aside from that, though, today's forecast is absolutely gorgeous. specially if you like that, sunny, warm weather. if you love just or day today is basically a repeat of it. so go ahead. get out there before we cool down starting tomorrow. 70's along the bay shore today, 80's for the south bay yet again and a

year-over-year basis. that's up only 2.1% that perfect. so we're seeing some bumps in inflation on the consumer side, eye towards oil and shelter, not really tied towards much else. the s p pullback is about 2 and a half percent from its all-time high. that's not bad. okay. it's usually much worse and that could be 10%. i think the markets are handling everything as if we're going to get a rate cut later this year. okay. even 2 of them. so i like where we are with a good economy and jobs. wish there was more rate cuts because that does hurt the credit cards and mortgages. >> well, we'll see. we'll see what comes down the i'm a big fan of comic con what system seeing about a basically something like that. but for sports, you hear about that. >> yeah, brady hoke, jeter, eli, peyton are just some of the names who kind of realize that they sell trading cards. addicts, they're tied towards sports, betting apps that online shopping of like jersey signed jerseys. they're going to do what's called a sports

almost like permanency. you see it in the roads in one s has recorded multiple sideshows over the years from the balcony of a san francisco apartment. >> so much so that he made the recent decision to move to mexico and only comes back to the city when he has to for work. part of the reason my left as i just can't i can't deal with us anymore. it's just the stress of, you know, a feeling like i have no control over my environment. during the weekend sideshows, chp says 2 people were arrested at the bay bridge and 2 minors were cited. officer andrew barclay with chp golden gate division says recent legislation allows officers to investigate and take later action. it doesn't have to be. we see it right there. stop them and take the vehicle. >> if we identify that vehicle, we can, you know, come in a couple weeks later without warrant and take that vehicles. officer barclay get several questions about why responding officers don't break up sideshows in progress. he says that's not always a safe option for law enforcement. very often. you're looking at. >> hundreds of people involved in these and sending in a

single officer. i can be dangerous for that officer. says police officers responding to the sideshows he's recorded, stay too far away to document evidence. >> wishing law enforcement would put more resources into not just responding, but also stopping the chaos in progress. i don't feel protected by chp these ways. and i don't feel like there's. >> again, like i it worries me of something bigger chp control this. what can they do? even though there were multiple sideshows around the same time in the bay area this weekend, chp is still investigating to determine if they are linked in any way reporting in san francisco. i'm rob nesbitt kron. 4 news. >> coming up next in the problem morning news request for a recount in the race to replace an issue in congress. of the candidates of said we'll tell you who they're blaming. >> plus, we'll have some more information about major delays we're seeing over in the east bay will bring you

>> all right. we're back 9.45. is the time again with the breaking news update from the traffic center. yeah, we've been talk about an accident that has been plaguing much of the east bay thomas and the traffic center. with that up a look. >> hey, good morning, everyone. that's right. over in the san lorenzo area, we've been seeing it since about 4 5 o'clock this morning to sum it up, a driver of the big rig fell asleep and it tipped over on its side. you can see it's right here at the connector of 80 southbound and 2.38. northbound. that connector completely closed, causing major delays all the way on 8.80, and also to 38 essentially all way through castro valley. and in addition to that, there's another accident. but we want to take you live to the scene of where

that big fell over onto its side. chp has been there since about 4 5 o'clock this morning. they're telling us they have no eta of when these lanes will be back open again. it's the connector of 80 southbound. so if you're using that to try to get over to sam a tail or san jose. unfortunately, they're not to be able to use it this morning. that driver fell asleep and that's where we are this morning. it's been like that for hours. in addition, there's another traffic collision the opposite way. and this is right here on southbound to 38 north of east 14th street. so that lane is completely blocked. your best bet for both of these to get around is to take mission and essentially get back on to either of the freeways. taking a look right now at the residual delays we're going to be seeing over in 5.80, near the pleasanton dublin area. you can see it's a 14 minute commute from livermore to dublin. not too bad, but still major congestion across that area. and even if you're taking 6.80 in your heading south, that's also congested because they're just clearing up a traffic collision that happened. but it has been

cleared. taking a look at some drive times for those of you in the more inland area, livermore to dublin, as i said around 15 minutes, dublin to fremont. 29 minutes. and you're going to see that because of that rig that's turned over san leandro to milpitas. 33 minutes milpitas to sunnyvale. 10 minutes taking a look at those who are heading over towards the mains crockett to the maze. 19 minutes, walnut creek to 5, 80 18 minutes. castro valley to the me 16 minutes. stanley under to the maze. another 15 minutes as well. live look at the bay bridge. everything is running smoothly there. only an 11 minute commute into the city from the maze. taking a look very quickly over in the south bay area. 44 minute commute from san jose to menlo park. not too bad. taking a look over there as well. san jose to cupertino. 14 minutes. we move up a little bit. there's another traffic collision for those of you who are heading into the south bay. you can see it's on southbound 101, near mansell street. so expect some major delays there. as you head out this morning, john, i will send it to thanks so much, michael. and we are looking

outside at least some really clear skies for most of the bay area, musher right along the coast. here's a little hint of that fog. >> drifting right through the golden gate bridge this morning. that cool ocean breeze in the air is definitely going to keep our coastal areas nice and cool in the 60's. while the rest of us see one more day of those 70's and 80's much as we did yesterday tomorrow, we'll start to see the impacts that low pressure to our north. so if you liked yesterday, enjoyed today's warm weather. is this high pressure is still the main influence on our forecast for the moment tomorrow, we'll start to see cloud cover drifting in after today's sunshine. you can see that pushing on into tomorrow in future cast rainfall holds off until after the sun goes down tomorrow night. so friday during the day, you're nice and dry. if you're hanging out friday night may be encountering some light showers that first and after midnight, some heavier rainfall again leading into saturday morning. a little bit of snowfall as we will be seeing cold air pushing it along with this frontal boundary. that means some more

mountain tops, know right here in the bay area. get a bit of a breather. as you're waking up saturday morning, a good chance to take the dog out before resurgence of moisture on into the middle of the day. chance of thunderstorm activity developing for the 2nd half of your saturday, most of what we'll see over the weekend will be on saturday itself and that will amount to around a half to an inch of rainfall across the bay in the meantime, today, one last warm day. hopefully you can get out there pleasant for the city in the 60's cooler at the coast in the low 60's while 70's to 80's along the bay shore and into the south bay, san jose. you'll get up to 82 degrees today. almost exactly like yesterday. pretty similar for the east bay, too, with 70's up the east bay shoreline. a lot of 80's further inland warmest spot. today's antioch up to 83 degrees while santa rosa at 78 tomorrow will be in the 60's at the very warmest, partly cloudy skies saturday. pretty overcast highs in the upper 50's after that will drive back out slowly seeing

temperatures climbing back into the 70's by next week. read write. thank you for that update for your local election headquarters to request for a recount of the made in the race. >> to replace congresswoman anna eshoo, as it stands right now. we've got both low and joe submit ian. >> they are tied and going to be joining sam liccardo on the november ballot. but kron four's catherine heenan takes a closer look at what a recount might mean. >> it seemed both have been low and joe summit, ian, we're willing to accept the recent surprising news of a two-way tie. their teams not talking about an expensive recount. former san jose mayor sam liccardo is already safely in first place. now santa clara county officials tell me they are being asked to do a manual recount, something that could begin as soon as monday. the approximate cost $32,000 a day lasting, maybe 10 days. so.

>> who's asking for there's allegation that one of the people requesting the recount associated with liccardo who actually would benefit from having a 2 person race rather than 3 person race. it's much easier. it weighs money. it's much easier draw contrasts. >> the name on the recount petition is a former staffer for sam liccardo name jonathan padilla. but look, camp is not confirming that only saying the final count needs to be accurate. meantime, a very angry reaction from evan los campaign. the statement from his spokesperson, this is a page right out of trump's political playbook using dirty tricks to attack democracy and subvert the will of voters. sam liccardo, who does not live in this district, did not file a recount himself. instead, he had his former staffer do it for him. what's he afraid of? think antidemocratic at all. >> to ask for ask for a recount in and in a lot of

races and there are mandatory recounts like a presidential. and then when there's no one squat about anti democratic. >> also weighing in south bay, congressman roe conn who said in a post on x, a candidate wanting to overturn the will of the voters is undemocratic. sam liccardo supporters should not push for a recount asking to overturn election results in district 16 when all other candidates have accepted them. it's a crash political ploy and it's why i'm with evan low. >> it's a tie. vote. >> yockey says if somebody is willing to pay for recount. well, clearly that's allowed by law. and he says there's a huge if in all this will somebody come up with the money they there been instances already. >> in california history where people requested a recount. but i'm to come up with the meantime, in this flurry of excited reactions. yaki thanks a supervisor. some idiot is

probably playing the smart by not really saying much of anything right now. >> jackie says that makes him appear to be more statesman like. >> thank you, catherine. 9.52. is the time. let's talk baseball. the giants looking to avoid a three-game sweep as they host the nationals last night at oracle park, starting at the bottom of the second giants were down to run until nick. i'm ed hits this one deep into center. jacob young. >> could make the catch collides with the wall. instead that set the giants up to tie the game with the very next at bat and eventually take the lead. nationals were unable to come back after that, which ended up scoring 2 more runs in the bottom of the 5th and 6th. so the final in this 1, 7, to one, they start a new series with rays on the road in tampa bay. tomorrow. first pitch for that 3.50. meanwhile, the a's they were looking to make it 2 in a row against the rangers down a texas rangers. they were the first to score in the game followed by a score for the a's to tie it up. the bottom

of the 4th, the rangers took the lead 3 to followed by 2 more runs rangers lead in by 5 fact. the a's with fall final score. 62, they'll look to take the series tied at one apiece. >> the next match up this morning at 11. 35. we'll be right back.

>> well, right says they're closing 18 stores in california to those are in the bay area. court documents state the right on 10, 30 south white road in san jose is in a close down the story 16 50, the connell wrote in
