Clouds, cooling inlet will continue with temperatures in the 50s under cloudy to mislead hottest guys, livermore 52 in san se 55, concord and livermore and fairfield will drop into the 60s, 63 to 65 so pretty consistent. A couple of issues right now so lets get right on over to sal castaneda. We have two deadly crashes in the bay area right now steve. One is on 680 unpleasant and at burnell road on southbound society involving a big rig and another vehicle in a crash. You should avoid the area and traffic will be slow and in fact they had opened the lanes at one point, all were closed but they started to an investigation on southbound 680. This is a highway for crash that was cleared westbound and this is a live picture near Franklin Canyon road and this involved a man who stole a car and took off at a high rate of speed, ended up losing control and flipping the vehicle and unfortunately the man was killed when he was ejected from the car. All the lanes were closed and some blades are opened but chp is still doing an investigation so take it easy out there and remember this is a pretty dangerous time here with all the roads wide open. People get into serious crashes. Now back to dave. Some of the bay area Top Health Agencies are developing plans to relax the shelter in place orders for 7 Million People between napa and monterey counties. The association of Bay Area Health officers is looking for may 4 as a date to possibly making that move and the new guidelines may apply first to Outdoor Activities like gardening, construction work and even playing golf. Meantime at the white house President Trump unveiled his plan for reopening the economy, greg lee tells us about the president s threephase plan and the reaction from Governor Newsom. Reporter President Trump gave the green light to states who want to reopen before may 1 if they want. The new federal guidelines releast the economy upended by the coronavirus. To preserve the health of our citizens must also preserve the health and functioning of our economy over the long haul. You cannot do one without the other. The guidelines provide a framework for lifting restrictions in three phases based on benchmarks like hospital conditions at a steady decrease in cases and in contrast some state and local leaders have extended their stay home orders to may 15 and californias order has no end date and a call the president reportedly told all 50 governors to call their own shots and that is something Governor Newsom said he appreciated. Recognizing the differentiation that exists and persists in terms of conditions counties and not just in states across this nation. If they need to remain closed we will allow them to do that spin earlier this week the governor announced he is coordinating with oregon and washington on wednesday reopen based on their own six benchmarks including developing therapeutics and the ability of businesses and schools to support social distancing. Lawmakers, Business Leaders and medical experts said the key to reopening is more testing. We will still need to broaden our Testing Capacity and ability to do community surveillance. President trumps message to governors is an aboutface on wednesday when he said he could force the states to reopen. We have a right to do whatever we want although we were not do that but we have a right to close on what we are doing. Constitutional law professor joel paul says the president doesnt have that kind of power. In terms of requiring states to act he has no such authority and the 10th amendment reserves to the states all the powers not expressly given to the federal government. We told you about the pact between western states and theres one on the east coast as well and as of today a number of states in the midwest joining together to create a plan.

Some large venues can reopen including restaurants and movie theaters but they would be tough social distancing rules. However bars would stay closed.
