WTF with traffic last Thursday and Friday?

Seriously I don't understand. Southbay 85, 101, 880, streets. All had like 50% more traffic suddenly. It wasn't raining. It wasn't a 3 day weekend. It wasn't the Olympics.

What the heck was it?

i think they work on the new overpass at this time at night. I remember the same thing happening a few weeks ago. took two hours to get home (newark) from milpitas.
