A devastating wildfire wiped out hundreds of miles of forest in yosemite last august and also really impacted business that is cater to tourists, but as nbc bay area joe rosato, jr. Shows us, life is beginning to return. Fire started on saturday, and we kept watching, and they said, oh, youve got plenty of time. One to two days, youll be fine. So we came back thinking were good, and within the hour the sheriff was at our door. It was one of the most devastating fires in california history.

Reporter once they came back, the yosemite Riverside Inn was still standing. The sign had melted and the fire crept up to the cabins but it was standing. It was very devastating to see how close your property actually came. Reporter but 400 square miles of trees and woods are now blackened moon scapes. Every were rust colored leaves and pine needles reveal the fires path. Their home is like an island surrounded by charred forest. It is hard, especially for our kids.

In case you didnt have a chance to get out today, spectacular. A great day to have easter. An easter egg hunt, it was perfect. The weather cooperated. Its been a while since we had to dodge rain drops on an easter sunday. We have temperatures soaring in the mid80s out towards livermore. Dublin, 80 degrees, mostly sunny skies in the east bay. And into san jose youre still at 80 degrees, mostly sunny out there. The late day sea breeze is picking up and this should be fantastic weather for the sharks game, too, coming up tonight just after 7 00. 73 degrees after 7 00. Quite pleasant. A little bit of a northwest wind from 10 to 20 miles an hour. Speaking of those temperatures, your east you are ser sunday hi san jose. San francisco and oakland in the mid70s. Santa rosa and napa in the low 80s this afternoon. Thats about to change. Numbers from the 70s and 80s today, which 24 hour temperature change almost 15 degrees warmer and then this time yesterday. Were going to see these going to minus symbols tomorrow. Were going to be seeing a big drop in temperatures as the clouds start to thicken up, not just with the sea breeze which is starting to punch in, but mostly cloudy skies during the day tomorrow which will lead to a chance of seeing some rain, especially for the north bay late in the day. Right now the satellite radar view looks mainly clear but off to the coast we have this weather system that will begin to move towards the bay area later tonight and during the day tomorrow. So as this trough starts to approach the bay area, youre going to notice a big drop in temperatures. Breezy conditions tomorrow. Highs in the 60s and 70s and at least a chance of seeing rain developing late mainly for the north bay. Not much of an impact during the day other clouds and breezy conditions. Monday night into tuesday, brief chance of seeing some light rain moving through the bay area. A rainfall total out of the system may be enough to wet the ground at times. Not a whole lot showing up there, but watch what happens as we get into friday and saturday. A much different story coming up. Sierra locations, maybe a couple inches of snow out of that system but the main event were watching for you here is friday into saturday. The future cast here looking more like a february to early march weather system. A cold one at that. That will drop some rain for the bay area and some sierra snow. Time frame on friday, showers into saturday, and Cool Temperatures continuing into sunday with the rainfall predictions for the second storm friday through monday getting close to a half inch of rain which is significant because if we could manage those rain totals, we could see places like San Francisco actually going above the Monthly Average of rainfall. Right now were at 1. 27. Close to the Monthly Average. That would put us above average for a change if that rain comes through later this week which it looks like it should. Thats good news. Coming up in the sevenday forecast. Tomorrow, no 80s on the board, maybe some low 70s around the south bay before the clouds fill in. Peninsula temperatures in the mid60s. San francisco high in the low 60s tomorrow. Down from the 70s we saw today. And into the north bay we have highs in the upper 60s to near 70 with some rain showing up for the evening and trivalley temperatures cooling off as well. Mid70s tomorrow and then the rest of the week youll see the temperatures really dropping off. Second half of the week you will see the numbers friday, saturday, into sunday, your next weekend outlook does not look like what we just saw. No 80s on the board but perhaps muchneeded rainfall friday into saturday, then perhaps a little more into sunday as we see the temperatures staying cool for the rest of the week. After tomorrow, highs staying in the 60s to low 70s with more opportunities for rain approaching next weekend. Back to you. Wild stuff, rob. Thanks very much. And still to come, so what happens when you dont get out of the way of a fastball you ask . Well, i think we know.

Thats when a judge ruled the convictions were based on racism rather than reason. Carter went on to live in canada, and he worked as an advocate for the wrongly convicted. His story was the motivation for bob dylans song hurricane and the 1999 film of the same name starring denzel washington. He was battling Prostate Cancer before he died at his home in toronto. Hurricane carter was 76 years old. A Minor League Baseball player is recovering today from a very close call. He got hit in the face by a 90mileperhour fastball. Hes doing okay, but some of what youre about to see might be kind of tough to watch. Nbcs Kerry Sanders has the story. The Center Fielder. Reporter minor league ball, top of the seventh. The batter gets a 90mileanhour fastball high and inside. It hits him on the helmet. A pitch that was just inches from hitting his helmet. Instead, a direct hit to deshields face. He is the starting Center Fielder with the Corpus Christi hooks. He tweeted this gruesome picture of himself from the hospital. Thats not photo shopped. Doctors say the incident at home plate fractured his cheek. Hours later, another photo, thumbs up. Deshields tweeting im doing fantastic. Blessed to see another day. A little loopy on meds right now, but feeling good. Not really much pain. Feel a little awkward in the face. Reporter the 21yearold Houston Astros prospect says he doesnt remember what happened. Just the aftermath. And i was like it cant look as bad as i think. I looked in the mirror and i was like, wow, then i started laughing. Reporter at the rawlings Test Facility in suburban st. Louis, its clear the damage a ball can do to a player. This is what a 90mileanhour fastball looks like when it strikes a watermelon. Baseball is a relatively safe spord, so thankfully we dont see these kind of injuries very often, but it really makes sense to me to start thinking about protecting peoples faces. Reporter deshields says hes unfazed and hell be back. The real test, of course, will be when hes back in the batters box. His father, a former major leaguer himself, thinks his son will be fine. I dont think hell have a problem getting back on the horse. Hes a tough kid, and hell be back. Reporter like all injured athletes, deshields is anxious to return to play, but that wont happen until doctors give him the allclear. Ive got a son who plays Little League baseball, and it crosses your mind every time theres a pitch up and in. Maybe they could have more protective gear but at some point you have to just let them play i guess. Its unbelievable hes okay. Hes got such a good attitude about the whole thing. And it is so oh. A very different story about another baseball player father son duo. The son is following his fathers athletic footsteps. Only hes wearing ballet shoes instead of spikes. West to be recently joined the San Franciscos prestigious ballet. His father telling nbc bay area hes proud of his sons hard work noting weston has been dancing since age 4. He says there are similarity between ballet and baseball. He and weston have lots of conversations about preparation, injuries, and consistent performance. Yes weston is a big giants fan and often joins dad at the ballpark, and if youre in the ballet instead of a baseball team, youre not going to get hit by a 90mileperhour fastball. Thats an old saying. That is totally true. On the other hand, you can get hurt in ballet all kinds of crazy injuries in ballet, too. Ankle i would think. Yeah, yeah. Coming up in the next half hour, changing gears a bit. We had a violent morning in san jose. Well have the latest on a stabbing actually outside a popular bar. And a semi truck crash and fire in the north bay. The crash scene that had part of highway 101 shut down for hours also. I am chase cane at Golden Gate Park where today is not just easter, its also a holiday for those who celebrate marijuana.

Also coming up, four people were stabbed outside a san jose bar. What may have led up to that violence. Plus, you can smell it in the air. The attempt to snuff out problems from the annual pot party here in the bay area. Good evening. Im terry mcsweeney. Im diane dwyer. 4 20 is a day for marijuana smokers. The annual event at Golden Gate Park draws thousands of people which means traffic, trash, and usually quite a few arrests. Nbc bay areas chase cain joins us from the city with a look. Hello, chase. Reporter hello, diane. Terry may have said it best a moment ago, you can definitely smell it in the air. If you look behind me, everyone is having a good time but fortunately there have not been any major problems to report so far this year. Although San Francisco police and park rangers were out here patrolling early today. They have been trying to sort of have a show of force in hopes of keeping things under control. Theyve been looking not so much for drug use but they have been looking for people who would be selling drugs in the park. Also anyone with an open container, any underage drinking, those sort of things. We did walk through the park a few moments ago and we could tell you there was plenty of all of the above. Pretty much anything you can imagine is going on inside Golden Gate Park. For the most part it seems like police and rangers are sort of keeping their distance and staying back unless, of course, thins get out of control. Theres a fire truck moving through here for just a moment so we apologize for that. But we did talk to some people earlier about how they felt about these increased police patrols. Behind you you can see not more than one, two, three, four, five, six, seven police cars. So i believe theres a heightened police presence, yes. Reporter and do you think thats good or bad . Good for safety but bad when it comes to police harassment. Its just people here celebrating something that we
