Per SF Travel, Union Square has most major hotels and the best transit links (note the Powell BART entrance closure at 4th and Market through Nov 10). SoMa waterfront and Embarcadero hotels sit inside Wednesday's parade closures, so expect limited car access there 8 am–4 pm Wednesday. https://www.sftravel.com/neighborhoods

• Public data only, from pages opened Tue Nov 3, 2026, around 2:10 pm PT: NWS forecast and alerts, the Caltrans District 4 news index and five posts, the BART advisory feed, SFMTA travel updates and the parade page, and four Michelin pages. Other items carried from earlier briefs. Nobody was contacted and nothing was signed up for.
• This is a snapshot. BayAreaDailySync refreshes it every 8 hours (6 am, 2 pm, 10 pm PT).
• Times are Pacific standard time. Prices only where a cited page lists them.

1. Yelp ratings (blocked); restaurant hours not checked.
2. Warriors vs. Miami Heat on Thu Nov 5 is still unconfirmed (nba.com's schedule feed returned an access error this run), so it's left off the list.
3. Chase Center, SF Symphony and SF Opera calendars didn't show readable dates this run, and SFJAZZ blocked the load, so no arts events were added.
4. Valkyries parade organizer page not opened; details come from SFMTA.
5. Election Day polling hours not checked.
6. Fares, Lyft Bike, Lime and Spin pricing and SFO notes not re-checked.
7. BART Yellow Line and Powell entrance items carried, not re-read on bart.gov news pages.
8. Exact timing of Mill Valley ramp closures depends on tides; Caltrans gives no schedule.

What changed since the last brief (Tue 6:10 am): NWS issued a Coastal Flood Advisory for SF from 6 am Wed through 1 pm Mon Nov 9 (morning high tides up to 1.6 ft above normal), and today's rain now looks light (under a tenth of an inch). Caltrans added tide-related closures of the NB US-101 to SR-1 ramp in Mill Valley and confirmed the Devil's Slide tunnel closure Thu night. Restaurant picks rotated.
