About the live information: Weather comes from the National Weather Service at the selected park’s coordinates. Transit uses current public arrival feeds when available. Crowd level is an SF News Today forecast based on weather, time, day of week and known events; it is not a camera feed or live people count. Park hours, rules and notices should be confirmed with the linked official operator when plans depend on them.
