You may want to avoid 101 if at all possible, because a grass fire this afternoon made the southbound side of the freeway kind of impossible. The fire was near the Alana Way on-ramp, in the area of Candlestick Park, as CBS reports, and two southbound lanes were closed for part of the afternoon as firefighters took care of things, snarling traffic trying to leave the city.

It's unclear if the fire is fully extinguished as of now (4:15 p.m.), but Google traffic is showing things still slow in an area right around there on the southbound 101.
