Every Single Person who has died in San Francisco on a bike deserves to be remembered. Theyre not just a number or a name. Theyre a whole person. Moving memorial honoring the victims of bay area bikers killed on our roads. To see whats going on in San Francisco or the picture thats painted of San Francisco versus the reality of San Francisco, i know im actually putting the paint to the canvas as a testament to whats really going on. Outsiders painting San Francisco with a broad brush. How an artist builds bridges to understanding about his neighborhood. It is something very loud. Very powerful. Very much in your face. [ laughter ] as far as being reclaiming their voice, claiming their heritage. And in the south bay, ancient sounds and modern times claim a space for future generations. So fantastic to hear that this morning. Good morning, everybody, im reed cowan. We hope the drum beat in your heart says you can. Were glad you are with us. I loved how in sync they werewhen they were doing the drums. Im gianna franco. A live look outside on what you can expect as you head out and get the thursday started. And you know last hour we showed a couple of different cameras where you can see the clouds and hovering over the bay. And its still kind of the same thing. Im kind of hoping that they sort of drift away, jessica. Clouds, clouds, go away. Like the rain. Right . But it is cool and it is cloudy out there. You can barely see salesforce tower. Keep the mind salesforce towertops off around 1,000 feet and right now the cloud layer is right around there hanging out. Luckily visibility at the surface level is not bad. This morning no issues on roads. Getting into the city. However, i will say these cloudy skies definitely dont make for the most beautiful photos by any means, this is may gray in full force. For anyone whos visiting from out of town, this is a very normal thing during this time of year for us. To see the cool and cloudy mornings and the cool and cloudy conditions last into the afternoon hours along our coast but we will dry up a lot more in our inland areas seeing plenty of sun into this afternoon. So small daytoday changes are expected for us and as we head into the weekend which is actually good news in case you have any Outdoor Activities that you didnt want canceled. Keep in mind, gosh, the past couple of months it was weekend after weekend of rain or storms moving in from the gulf of alaska. Now just dry and clear conditions. Sunny skies into the afternoon hours. For bay to breakers on sunday. For all of the friends going out there and other than that, a similar trend for us today. This morning lasting into this afternoon. We warm up into the 50s and 60s. In San Francisco. Along the peninsula, down into halfmoon bay. And redwood city. Yesterday we topped off in the 80s all throughout the east bay near antioch and concord and today mid to low 70s in the forecast near concord and walnut creek. Its a beautiful sunrise just above this cloud layer and we cannot see it right now but heres the Black Mountain cam. Kind of shaky right now. Little bit breezy in the higher elevated areas. The more south we go down into san jose and los gatos. Beautiful day with 70s in the forecast. Over to you, g. Taking a look at the roadways as you get ready to head out the door. And heres a live look at the bay bridge toll plaza. Already backing up for a think drive heading into San Francisco. 6 03 metering lights are officially on and you can see its pretty slow for that commute through there. Now we are seeing some slow and go conditions across westbound 80 into richmond and a crash southbound 880 right at whipple and thats causing a pretty big backup for commuters coming out of hayward this morning. So keep that in mind if you are working your way towards the san mateo bridge. You are going to see some extra busy conditions. Well, developing overnight. Uc berkeley a group of protesters faken over this. Its a condemned building on campus. The university claims they are a group of activists that are separate from the free palestine encampment that lasted for weeks on campus and reportedly disbanded yesterday. Shawn chitnis is live this morning on the uc Berkeley Campus and shawn, what do we know about the people in the building and are they still there . Reporter hey reed, good morning, we can start to see some folks coming out of their tents and we are still trying to learn a little bit more about what has brought them out here. But i will tell away so you can see the situation this morning where not only are there the tents but there are also signs that have been put up on the building as well as palestinian flags. Now this is all a block away from peoples park. Which remains closed with shipping containers and security on all sides of that location. But you can see here what has developed just a block away. Now were told about 20 people set up on the lawn of this burned out building overnight. Its the alumnae hall. The University Says they appear to be peoples park protesters because its to a 55th anniversary of a protest that happened at the park and thats why they decided to move on this particular building. This coming though as the encampment at uc berkeley related to israelhamas war was taken down on tuesday. Protesters reached an agreement with the school. The university saying that they would look into their investments to see if they align with the schools values. And the chancellor also saying that she would personally call for a ceasefire in gaza. So again, while we wait to learn more about exactly what has happened here, its important to note that while the university has explained that this would be separate from that encampment, we do see those palestinian flags throughout the positioning of those tents and the building behind me. Reed, back to you. All right, Shawn Chitnis reporting the story up north. Now lets look at whats going on down south. The sights and sounds of a clash at uc irvine after protesters there in Southern California clashed with riot police. They were trying to stop a takeover and a barricade situation inside a science lecture hall. Uc irvine canceled all classes following the protest yesterday and theyre angry about word the university suspended protesters who were on a Negotiations Team and authorities broke down an encampment housing hundreds of protesters on campus. The school described the protest as violent but did not say what type of violence they are citing. Protesters wanting to get the attention of the University Regents meeting at uc merced inside those meetings, regents are debating whether professors and staff should be barred from posting their views about the war in gaza on campus websites. University officials across the nation face congressional pressure to set boundaries on political speech that could appear to represent the official stance of universities. Also monitoring an encampment at the university of San Francisco. You see it here by hind me where graduation ceremonies are slated to start on campus this afternoon. So a deadline to disperse came and went and protesters dug in their heels and held a rally and theyre not moving. Administrators say they are not planning though to remove the protesters by force. But they do warn students in this crowd could face academic repercussions. And now in the south bay, the artist who created that famous statue the black power statue on the campus of san jose state, is showing his support for protesters who set up an encampment in the is that doe of the statue. The artist rigo 23. Hes known for murals and political art there in statue area. And he had this to say about those protesters gathering at the victory salute statue. I wanted san jose students, you know, from 2005 into the future, to know that their backs were by the two giants. [ applause ] and there are new developments at Sonoma State University this report this morning. The University President mike lee put on leave after an agreement he made with pro Palestinian Protesters on campus. Among other things hagride to a boycott of academic and Research Institutions with ties to israel. Chancellors said lee made the announcement out without approval. In a campus wide email. The move is now under review and lee is on administrative leave. However, the california legislative jewish caucus says they support the suspension. Said in a statement that lees endorsement of the academic boycott was unaccept and they say is evidence that hes unfit to lead the university. So a lot of things happening as we watch one graduation happen this afternoon for continuing coverage on all of the Bay Area University encampment developments and protests, and occupations of that building in berkeley, stick with us online at kpix. Com and streaming on the cbs news bay area app. Well, right now, hundreds of thousands of palestinians have already fled rafah and it could be days until humanitarian aid arrives.

Dr. Haleh sheikholeslami practices in palo alto and left her family at the beginning of april but now the crossing to egypt is closed. Her brother has been fighting for her return home. She wanted to be able to do more. I think the you know, just the advocacy from here really wasnt enough. Yesterday when i was talking to her, it was really you know, we had some texts back and forth. And one thing she was worried about was that she was not so worried about herself. Her spirits were good. But she was worried about that they were running out of supplies and medical supplies because of the Border Crossing and that they couldnt help the people. And she was also worried about she was going to be late back to work so she couldnt see her patients here which i kind of find ironic because were worried about her safety. The big challenge is safety getting her out and moving around rafah and also says his sister has been treating a lot of children. Theres a scarcity of food and theres dehydration, theres you know, all of this sicknesses that comes with being homeless. And, you know, being displaced. And so that is i think what she is seeing. They had to get relocatedbecaus e of the intensity whats gain on in rafah and i think shes been very careful about what she shares with us. Because of frequent blackouts its been hard to communicate and that his family has contacted congresswoman anna eshoos office for help in getting his sister back home.

Taking a live look outside as we wake up on this thursday morning. To this gorgeous view of San Francisco. You can see Grace Cathedral there off to the side. Lets check in with first alert meteorologist Jessica Burch to update us and ready to go as we head out the door and jess im not loving all the may gray were getting. Thats because you live along the coast, g. Im sure it was sunny as can be just around the same time it was cool and cloudy along the coastline. Luckily this mornings that what we have outside. That marine layer kind of holding on tight to us right now throughout the Santa Clara Valley and waking up and heading out the door in the afternoon hours just like yesterday well warm up into the 70s off into the east bay. 60s and 350s along the coastline and the peninsula. And the reason why weve been dealing with this nice quiet weather pattern, like 70s down into san jose for quite some time, is due to High Pressure sitting directly offshore. High pressure has been keeping the storm track well to the north of us closer to the Canadian Border actually. Theyve been receiving some activity this week. But other than that, back here in the bay, its just cool and cloudy and mild for us along the coast with sunny afternoons all throughout the Santa Clara Valley up into wine country. Were all going to see a little bit of the onshore flow this morning. Wind gusts anywhere up to around 15, 20 Miles Per Hour lasting into the 9 00 hour. Watch what happens as we head into the afternoon it gets a little bit stronger in areas like fairfield and San Francisco a similar trend. This is just around dinner time. Then other than that its calm weather for us as we head into the overnight hours. Gearing up for a beautiful and mild forecast the next couple of days. Speaking of the next couple of days lets actually take a look at that. As we head into this weekend, were going to get mild weather for us in time for sunday for anyone going out to bay to breakers, lots of people come out into San Francisco. But a lot of us also deal with beautiful warm weather into the afternoon and were not getting that necessarily if you live or operate closer to San Francisco. What were going to get is 50s in the forecast as that run kicks off and then also going to hold on tight to 60s for our daytime highs. Heading into our saturday forecast right around the corner. Im going to have more on that coming up in a bit. But for now over to you, g. Jessica thank you. Lets talk about those roadways now and rolling on the bay area bridges and freeways. Tough to do at bay bridge toll plaza right now with all that back appeasement almost to the foot of the maze. Already this morning. No crashes in the area so that will help. However, its still pretty slow. So one of the headlines is you head out the door, a busy ride coming out of the east bay freeways. Plus were tracking some brake lights weve got two trouble spots now out of hayward, first off southbound as you work your way towards that whipple area this morning. Theres a crash blocking the couple of lanes and you are backed up almost to the 238 and 8808 connector. So in that area, as well were getting word of a trouble spot. This whole section heading over to the san mateo bridge really starting to slow down this morning. And we are still tracking a very busy ride for commuters coming out of tracy. Thats because of a crash still stuck westbound 580 at grant line road. So those are two hotspots this morning where were seeing most of the brake lights and issues. As we look at the travel times, you will get a better perspective as you get on the favorite app in the car. But i can tell you 101 out of san jose still looks pretty good overall. Only 38 minutes hellyer to sfo and highway 4 and 80 starting to slow down though. Well, we got a sneak peek at the nearly complete renovations at sfos harvey milk terminal 1. There it is there.

So its possible the niners could play a seventh primetime game through flex scheduling between week 12 to 17. So one of their games you may want to keep an eye on. Is week seven when they play against the defending super bowl champs the Kansas City Chiefs and we know how this went down. The chiefs beat the niners last super bowl . Overtime. 2522. How can we forget . The baseball now. The giants were looking to stop a dodgers series sweep last night. Well, Mike Yastrzemski had something to say about that. Helped set the tone early on with the two run blast in t 3rd. Not bad. Offense maybe hot and cold but the defense is always looking pretty good.

Her team was by her side in a boat as she swam through strong currents and frigid temperatures. It took the grandmother 17 hours to get to the island. Other swimmers have previously made the swim from the island to San Francisco. She was actually a swimmer in college. And when she is not in the water she works as a nurse at ucsf benioff Childrens Hospital in the fetal cardiac unit. How about that . I hope nyad calls her and says good job. I was thinking about this during this too. Incredible and good for you and congratulations, this woman now a grandmother. I bet she has a lot to say about dad back. Even we say dad back to her.

And lets take a quick look at what we can expect as we head into this afternoon. It is still cool and cloudy near San Francisco. Were going to see small daytoday changes in the forecast for us as we get closer into the weekend. Actually thats our another big weather headline for us. More of the same this weekend. With cool morning clouds that pull back along the coast into the afternoon hours. Leaving us with sunshine all throughout the east bay and up into wine country and for our friends in the Santa Clara Valley, and then cooler conditions closer to pacifica where g is at. High pressure is sitting directly offshore. Thats driving in dry weather for us. Right now actually what its doing its keeping the storm track well to the north of us. So were remaining dry as we head into the weekends forecast and early next week just dealing with the stubborn morning fog. May gray in full force for us in the bay area especially along the coastline and along the peninsula as we head in the afternoon hours. Over to the peninsula real fast and i want to show you whats happening for us today. Cool and cloudy right now in San Francisco and later this afternoon warm up in the 60s. Anywhere from San Francisco across the bay bridge right behind me. All the way over into oakland. We warm up into the 80s excuse me 70s today and were dropping the 80s in area like antioch all the way down into los gatos. Its been a mild forecast for us all week long.

This was someones daughter. A son. A pedicab operator. Reporter paul valdez is considered the unofficial bike mayor of San Francisco and helped to organize the event. He mourns every life lost, but there is one day he will always remember when two people were killed on their bikes just hours apart. I will never forget that day. Ill never forget where i was and how painful that was for me personally and our community. We just did not know what why did that happen . You know .

It has a little bit of resemblance although more king in this version. Spooky. Strange. Now lets take a live look outside on this thursday morning. That is the way you paint a beautiful picture out there. And lets talk now to jess about the weather. Good morning to. Good morning to you. All throughout the bay area this morning, were seeing a very similar setup as to what we had yesterday and the day before. Cool and cloudy to start off this morning. High pressure sitting just offshore thats the big reason why weve been seeing dry conditions all week long and well get a similar setup in the weekend. The storm tracks are staying well to the north of us all the way up closer to the Canadian Border and seattle but back here in the bay, its been may gray all week long. So near normal conditions are going to last for us as we head into this weekends forecast. Its thursday it feel like it should be friday. And once we head into friday a similar setup in the sense that that marine layer pulls all the way over into areas like concord up near napa along the Carquinez Strait and moves back along the coastline in the afternoon hours leaving us with sunny skies and beautiful conditions all throughout the inland areas in the afternoon hours. Now our pollen count still sitting at a medium category. Weve seen worse conditions earlier this season and its actually starting to improve a lot for us here in the bay area. As we take a look throughout the bay area today, we have some nice weather in store for us like i mentioned, still cool and cloudy along the coast. But that marine layer pulls back in our inland areas closer to around 10 00 today. At that point were going to be left with sunshine all throughout the afternoon with 60s and 70s anywhere from San Francisco over into oakland. All the way off in the east bay. Wine country today cooler than yesterday. Yesterday also in the 80s near los gatos all the way over into antioch and today were sitting in the upper 70s. Well continue to see more of that as we head into the next seven days. Watch what happens in our inland forecast. We actually have High Pressure that system you saw just offshore. Moving in closer to us as we head into early next week. So 70s turn into 80s by monday and tuesday. Well actually be able to wake up with some beautiful sunrises around the corner once we head into this weekends forecast. As early as saturday. But if you live along the coast or going to bay to breakers in San Francisco this weekend. Dress warm and now people decided to dress in all the crazy things possible. But it is going to be a cool one for us in the Early Morning hours on sunday. We do warm up into the upper 60s on sunday luckily which is great news for us. Because then we can continue to warm up just a hair more into our monday forecast. Sunny skies at that point to kick off next week. Beautiful mild weather not a rain drop in sight and like i said the storm track is well to the north of us. For now over to you, g. Lets talk about the bay area bridges right now getting ready to head across the san mateo bridge this morning. Getting a little crowded. Westbound commuters heading over towards 101 those are those taillights on the right hand side of screen and you can see a little bunched up there gets even busier once you get on to that foster city area. Over towards 101. Making that connector. Bay bridge toll plaza, still backed up and busy ride and it will stay this way for the next couple of hours at least. At least till about 8 30 is when we start seeing things winding down. But not right now. So pretty slow there. Westbound 80 still your slowest approach and then our other hotspots are along 880 right now. Southbound hayward, you have got a crash heading towards the san mateo bridge. Another one south of there in the clearing stages near whipple. A bit of a busy cute there. 680 southbound not looking too much better as you head into the grade and the westbound 580 commute thats still pretty busy for supercommuters. Good morning to you as you get ready to make that ride out of tracy over into the altamont pass. It is pretty slow and go as you work your way through there. Well check in on the Golden Gate Bridge in my next report. What i can tell you traffic is pretty quiet on that side as you head over into San Francisco. Celebrating heritage with each drum beat. Listen to that. This ancient japanese art form was recently on display at the 46th annual festival in san joses beautiful japantown. And you know as we celebrate aapi heritage month our len ramirez went behind the scenes with san jose taiko to hear more about the meaning and whats behind the music. Reporter when franco imperial hits the ancient taiko drum i feel like theres a relationship happening in terms of connecting with the instrument. Reporter it creates a certain sensation. And that translates to what the audience hears and feels. Reporter and whether its a single drum in the studio or a group of them in the street, creating something people can hear and feel is what san jose taiko has been doing for the past 51 years. We all have a heartbeat. And i think that pulse is something that we all tap into when were doing any kind of drumming. Reporter franco joined the group 26 years ago and is the groups longtime artistic director. When i am drumming, i feel pure joy. Bliss. Reporter those are some of the feelings the founders of san jose taiko tapped into back in 1973 when a new japanese american cultural pride emerged decades after world war ii and the hardship of internment. That generation i think really struggled and fought to reclaim that identity with pride and with honor. Reporter wisa uemura began playing taiko as a stanford student in 1993 and is now executive director. And taiko, for our select group of founding members, really was a way for them to say this is a japanese art form. And its not a quiet, passive art form that so many people associate with the japanese culture. It is something very loud. Very powerful. Very much in your face. [ laughter ] as far as claiming their voice, claiming their heritage. And that really spoke to that those individuals. And continues to to this day. Reporter although permanently a part of san joses japantown, the group has evolved into one of the premier arts organizations in the city, attracting students and players from all backgrounds. Hey, its the kata musical technique. Attitude and key. If you can embrace those four principles, then it doesnt matter the color of your skin or your gender or anything about you. As long as you can embrace those principles, then you can be a part of this group. Reporter the drum beat goes on for san jose taiko, keeping culture and tradition alive while reaching out to new artists and new audiences every day. Hey, were so proud of this.
