This is abc7 news. Just minutes away from the historic closure of the Golden Gate Bridge. Here is a live look. The last stranglers are making their way across this iconic span. And they better hurry. Not more than the speed limit, of course. Thats because workers will start installing a moveable median. Some 3500 steel concrete blocks. This is video from the presidio parkway as drivers hustle to get out of San Francisco. Good evening. Im dan ashley. Im ama dates. We will have more on the closure, but now in San Francisco there has been a quadruple shooting. Katie has the latest on this. Katie . Dan and ama, you can see what appears to be the bulk of the crime scene. It is actually at rose which is a small alley in between hait and page. What we know is multiple people have been shot and multiple fatalities. The coroner has been called to the scene, but police are not confirming at this point how many people have been killed. Right now we know there have been no reports of anyone being arrested in relationship with this crime. But it is a large crime scene. Not only is the block right here you are seeing shutdown but several blocks all the way around the neighborhood. I have been able to talk with a couple of neighbors who have shown up to this area in the last few minutes. A woman who lives here on the corner. Nobody who heard or saw anything per say, but they tell me they are shocked to hear that this happened here and a little nervous and disappointed something so violent would happen in their neighborhood. Right now we are keeping an eye on it. Look for any breaking news updates. Follow me on twitter katie abc7 or abc7 bay area. Abc7 news. Thanks very much. And now to our other top store. Of course the Golden Gate Bridge closure. Transportation officials are not taking any chances. They are preparing for a rough weekend in terms of commuting. We begin with the abc7 News Reporter who is live in San Francisco near the Golden Gate Bridge. Over the last hour we have seen quite a bit of activity reving up for the closure. In the last few minutes or so we have seen the crews position themselves at the toll plaza. We have also seen Highway Patrol starting to escort each other across as they start squeezing down traffic over the bridge. At 8 00 i repositioned the Center Pylons shifting them for the last time. The crews closed the parking lots on both end of the bridge and they started leading the krails. Our schedule calls for the contractor to be working at 12 01. That means the cars and trucks will be squeezed off the bridge over the next hour. After 11 45 we are going to close things down and start flushing out the last vehicles. If you are planing to cross the bridge you need to be here at 11 30 to be safe. The new Center Divider will be made up of 3500 of the steel and concrete pieces. It will be one of the slimmest available at just 12 inches. But it will still make the center lanes tight at 9 feet. People who work and live nearby say they are not sure commuters and tourists have paid attention to all of the signs leading up to this weekend long closure. It would be easy to miss, i think if you were not watching every day or had a reason to pay attention. For those not paying attention, there will be a long detour. Some people will not get the message and they will be presented with a long trip around the bay. The bridge is scheduled to reopen at 4 00 a. M. On monday morning. The Golden Gate Bridge will not be shut to all traffic. Golden gate buses will be transported by the patrol vehicles to make their regular routes. And pedestrians and bicyclists will be over the bridge. Abc7 news. Good to know, sergio. If you have to make the drive from the north bay to San Francisco this weekend the detour will take you over the Richmond San Rafael bridge along 80 and over the bay bridge. That drive normally takes an hour, but with the extra traffic plan ahead and expect it could take a little longer than that and maybe a good bit longer than tay. It is difficult to predict how it will shutdown traffic. Transportation officials are not taking any chances. They are preparing for what could be a rough weekend. Abc7 News Reporter alan wang is live along the 80 in berkeley with that part of the story. Alan . Ama, we are no where near the Golden Gate Bridge. But it could get ugly all the way over here if too many drivers use this stretch of highway between San Francisco and the north bay. This has never been done on this scale. The closing of the Golden Gate Bridge could cause gridlock all over the bay area. The expectation is that drivers between San Francisco and the north bay will funnel through the bridge and down the 585 corridor and across the richmondsan rafael bridge. It is a bridge in each direction. You have two lanes attempting to carry not only normal weekend traffic but a surplus of weekend traffic. We came here to mark the Golden Gate Bridge off our bucket list. They are tourists who had to alter their weekend plans. We were going to see them tomorrow morning so now we will be going south. To alleviate congestion golden gate transit is running four times as many ferry runs from larkspir lark spir to salsa to sausalito. Golden gate transit buses offer the only way across the bridge. They will be operating on regular weekend schedules but there could be delays so passengers should leave early to reach their destinations. Even if i would be here this weekend i wouldnt try. A host of factors will determine this weekends traffic conditions, but just to be safe the chp is preparing for the worst. Alan wang, abc7 news. And we will be keeping an eye on the closure throughout the newscast and all weekend on air and online. Visit abc7news. Com for details on closures and information on Public Transit options. We have a link for you to download the traffic april ways on your smartphone to navigate the de 4s. We would love to have you join the abc7 news group.

San francisco 175 of normal with over 15 inches of rain so far. 115 of average in santa rosa. Oakland 124 and livermore 141. San jose 173 . Obviously we are following three dry years. Even though we are ahead for this season we have a long ways to go to catch up. We may see rain next weekend. Temperatures in the 40s and the 50s. It is not going to be a cold night because of all of the cloud cover. Sutro camera showing you San Francisco. It will remain poor. Spare the air issued for saturday and sunday through tuesday and you will notice moderate air quality. You will need a strong system to blow the dirty air out of here or we will need strong winds to come through. Neither one is happening anytime soon. From our east bay hills camera the hazy skies again tomorrow and a chance of sprinkles on sunday morning and a mild pattern is going to be with us most of the workweek next week. So here is the satellite picture, this is a system we are watching. This system dives south. What it will do is have more of an on shore flow. It is coming off the cooler ocean water. The temperatures in the upper to lower 50s. And by early sunday some of the moisture that is moving northward could result in a few sprinkles. As far as the computer animation you will start out with the cloud cover so not too cold. Hazy sunshine, spare the air for your sunday afternoon plans. And then in the wee hours saturday afternoon plans. In the wee hours of the morning you will notice some green around the monterey bay. If you are heading down toward the money tau raw bay or monterey bay or santa cruz you could see some showers develop. But for the rest of the us in the bay area we are going with a sprinkle of possibility. Beyond that we could see something a little more promising. Next weekend, best chance of rain saturday going into sunday. We still have a week from this weekend. Tomorrow morning low 40s to low 50s. At least we have gotten rid of the chill that has been with us for so long. 59 in half moon bay, San Francisco, vallejo, 60 in oakland, Richmond Palo alto low 60s. 62 san jose, livermore, hazy sunshine. 60 in antioch. Accuweather sevenday forecast 9th spare the air in a row issued for your saturday. We could be approaching records if we continue. The temperatures will remain within a few degrees heading into next week and we will obviously stay on the mild side but notice the increase in cloud cover friday next week.
