Wind pummeled San Francisco Tuesday creating chaos during the evening commute as ferries were halted and a big-rig overturned on the lower deck of the Bay Bridge, bringing traffic to a standstill as it backed up onto surface streets downtown.
Massive waves battered San Francisco's Embarcadero, crashing over the walls and forcing all ferry service to stop due to safety, just as many evening commuters were getting to the gates.
"There's no rain. I didn't expect them to cancel the ferry," said Shu Feng, an Alameda ferry passenger."We're going to take BART over to the East Bay and then our cars are all in the same location, so Uber or taxi," said Dan Kaney, who also lives in Alameda. Some drivers said they were waiting for hours on the surface streets, until more lanes were reopened. The big-rig was finally pulled upright and traffic lanes reopened around 8:30 p.m.
"I felt the ground started moving felt like the earth was breathing so we thought we'd better get out now," said Joseph.
