It was a nightmare commute Tuesday afternoon as high winds ripped through the Bay Area.
. The winds also caused hours-long backups on the Bay Bridge leaving commuters with few options to make it home."I'm not going to get on a boat right now," Weiss told CBS News Bay Area.
Weiss has been commuting on the ferry into San Francisco for six years. He said he has never seen conditions like he did Tuesday, which prompted the ferry to stop service for hours. "This is really affecting worker productivity and happiness they're having to leave earlier and getting home later," Loper told CBS News Bay Area."They're spending more time working and less time with their families."
"I was really happy to see the transit operators working together to get people home during the storm, when the ferries were cancelled because of these really treacherous waves. That BART and bus operators were working together to get people back," said Loper.
