In the meantime, we like to check in with kari hall tracking the timing of this storm. And when is it going to start to die down a bit . We will start to see a lot of rain tapering off right now as we speak. Were not seeing the heavy rain we had last night. The wind warning has expired but it is still breezy out there, and were getting a look at what it looks like as you step out the door at 6 01 in the south bay. You can see the raindrops on the camera lens. The peninsula, the roads are still wet, and in the trivalley, we have cloudy skies with light coming down. Looking at San Francisco, still windy. 56 degrees. In the north bay, you can see the clouds with some spotty rain. Also as we go throughout the day, going to see cloudy skies and a bit of a break here. The winds will continue to die down. The showers still exed at times, but there will also be some sunshine coming through. Looking at the radar now, seeing that rain still offshore that will be moving into the north bay, and for parts of the south bay, youre seeing some of the showers there. But for the most part, not seeing the heavy rain that we had last night. We will have a little break before the second round of heavy rain moves in this evening. Well talk at the timeline and a look at the futurecast in seven minutes. Heading to mike now, checking on some slowing in the south bay. Some slowing. A pretty light traffic all around the bay, but the conditions, kari, we have wed rote ways all around the bay and gusty winds. Be careful for your early commute. Theres the slowing, the only real slowing for the bay besides the bay bridge toll plaza where the metering lights are on in san jose, and the wet reds. Lets show you the picture close up. The water on the lends and kicking up on the roadways. That water will be a factor and youll need to use the windshield wipers from time to time. Friday morning is lighter traffic. Well talk about the latest for the b. A. R. T. Delays coming up. Thank you very much. 6 03. Tens of thousands of people waking up without power after the intense winds we have all been talking about. They knocked down power lines across the bay area. Kris sanchez joining us live from pg es Material Distribution Center in fremont. They made some progress since last night. Crews heading out right now as we speak to repair storm damage . Yeah, were inside the yard right now where all of this work is under way. Wearing safety glasses, of course. This is a very highly active spot. I got permission to take them off to read the script. We want to show wru whats happening here. One of the crew members loading up the transformers and wires that are going to deploy, not only around the bay area but beyond. Theres a base camp in Scotts Valley as well. Waw we hear about the trancer fires once in a while when the rains come, thats what were talking about, what delivers power to your home and brings it to a manageable level so you home can handle it. This is new video of crews working elsewhere. These crews were in los altos where a tree came down on power lines. Power lines about four miles away as well. At one point overnight, 167,000 customers were without power. Bay area wide. The numbers are improving because the crews are headed out to fix the problems. Right now, we stand at about 46,000 customers around the bay area. The brunt of the storm has really affected consumers and customers in the east bay there. About 39,000 customers in the dark in the east bay. About 3400 in the south bay. About 2,000 in the north bay. About 1200 in the peninsula. And about 300 customers now in San Francisco. And crews here are working hard to get all of this equipment back out onto the roadways so they can fix the power situations. But if youre watching us now this morning, you want to make sure you charge your electronics, your tablets, your kindle, your smartphone so you have access to information should you lose power because this wind event is going to continue. Were going to poke around here on the yard, but were also going to go inside for one of the safety meetings and see whats happening there. Well bring you new video at 6 55.

Scott mcgrew is live in the newsroom to bring us up to speed on the many overnight developments. Scott. Good morning to you. New video into our newsroom from the ground from the target itself. The first video comes to us from the russian military. Remember, theyre on the ground in western syria. This is the chief of the directorate of media services, the press secretary for the Defense Ministry. He says hes got russian drone video of the actual base. Lets show it to you. Definitely a version told to us from a Russian Point view. As we get his words translated and you saw some of those attacks there, not much damage. But again, thats from the Russian Point of view. Now, youre seeing Syrian Television, clearly shot on a cell phone. During the night, as the attack took place. And you see some of the explosions in the distance. I also have video for you from Syrian Television during the day. This seems to be more professionally shot. I want to point out on all of these situations, we cannot absolutely say these are true shots. But they look right. You see the frighter planes. The syrian tv crew not getting close to the base itself, and im not sure i blame them as the russians do bomb Damage Assessment and we detect that maybe not all of the targets were hit. We may very well strike it again. Well continue to watch whats going on here in the newsroom. We have access to all kinds of video. We will bring it to you the minute we get it. Back to you. Thank you very much. Ing by the minute there. 6 07 right now. New this morning, still trying to figure out why there was a lot of Police Activity along Railroad Tracks in san jose last night. Reports of a Large Police Presence near the tracks over highway 87. Not clear why they were there, but we have calls in to police to find out what happened. Also new this morning, we mentioned its been a busy overnight. Oakland firefighters watching for hot spots right now after a building fire. You can see what they were dealing with at the height of this fire. Massive flames engulfing a building off walnut street in oektland. Firefighters say that was wind drivp. Want to get back to the microclimate weather alert this friday morning to get a live look outside, showing the stormy conditions over downtown. I think we can say that phrase will be used again here in the days to come. Meteorologist kari hall is tracking the timing of your storm. Good morning. Were looking at these very wet road conditions. Look at this camera in san jose. You can barely see anything. Thats what your windshield will look like. Make sure theyre working well. Youll see the water being kicked up from the cars in front of you, and scattered showers moving 33 as we speak. This is a large storm system. You can see the pressure well to the north of us and more moisture feeding into the bay area. We have had more breaks. As we go through the day, well still see breaks in the rain and scattered activity and winds calming down as well. Some of the heavier rain will return this afternoon into the evening. Look at 9 30, pretty much all of the bay area covered with a pocket of heavy rain. Put that in your friday night plan. Heading into the weekend, ill help you make plans as we see this rain taper off. We head over to mike. The rain doesnt just fall on the roadways. If falls all over the place, including on the tracks. B. A. R. T. Often has to ease on their start and stop. We have to watch for traction issues. Might cause minor delays system wide. B. A. R. T. Has given the typical notice. Vallejo ferry replaced by bus. Theyre doing maintenance. The traffic is lighter this week. Because of the trivalley schools on vacation. And lighter traffic all around the bay. Look at this great flow right here, all over wherever youre going. The drive time getting to the bay bridge, no problem. Still just 17 minutes from highway 4 all the way down to the bay bridge. The toll plaza has a backup, but let me show you the emeryville camera. The wind may be a factor. Shaking the camera, and it may move your car around. Be careful of all those. Back to you. A warning right now for b. A. R. T. Riders in three minutes. The b. A. R. T. Station closure thats going to have a big impact on folks heading to tomorrows warriors game. kad bs it is 6 13. Its friday. Were making plans for the weekend. As you get ready to head out, the roads are still wet. Heres a live look outside at palo alto. As you drive during that slippery morning drive, we still have some gusty winds and some cloudy skies. Our average high, 68 degrees. Will stay in the mid 60s today. And looking at some more rain this evening. Ill let you know when exactly that rain moves in at 6 19. And we have an update from b. A. R. T. In the last couple minutes. Minor delays only for the east bay lines. Again, this is because of the wet tracks. The weather conditions even causing the rails to slow a bit. Mike, kari, thank you very much. Coming up on 6 14 on your friday morning. Bad news for b. A. R. T. Riders, at least in the short term. The lake merritt b. A. R. T. Station will be closed for the weekend after the end of service today. Theyll repair tracks through sunday, but there is going to be a bus bridge to take passengers around the closure but b. A. R. T. Want to warn you it could add between 10 and 25 minutes to your trip. That could cause some problems for people heading to the Warrior Games for tomorrow night at oracle arena. The return of kevin durant there. The ws are hosting the pelicans. Tipoff is 7 30. Facebook wants to use Artificial Intelligence to improve your private messages. Its messenger app will use a. I. To suggest things to users based on their conversations. The feech can suggest you book an uber or send money to a friend based on whatever youre talking about. Not artificial, but real jobs numbers this morning and theyre startling about the state of the american economy. Far fewer jobs created in march than expected. Scott mcgrew, you say the number is worse than it looks. 98,000 jobs added in the month of march. A bad number by itself, far below estimates, but it gets worse when you consider its not even enough to cover the number of 18yearolds who entered the official market last month. In that sense, todays number is actually a negative number. Now, were crunching those numbers. Poring over the report from the bureau of labor statistics to try to figure otwhat the estimates were so badly off. We were expecting something much better than that. Unployment at 4. 5 . Ill get to that in a minute. Investors will hate this news. The only Silver Lining maybe is the fed holds off on another rate hike because of this poor showing. For the strike on syria, word to the wise. The maker of the tomahawk cruise missile. The unemployment rate, lowest since 2007, dropping a full two tenths of a percent. We expect thats what the white house will concentrate on because the actual jobs number is just awful. Then, thats what white houses do. They find the number that reflects the best news they find. Trump used to call all of these numbers fake, of course. He didnt last month. The numbers were really solid last month, and spicer and trump, spicer a little early, tweeted this is the greatest thing ever. Make america great. I dont think theyll have that today. White house has a lot on its plate. No kidding. A busy friday. Well find out. Thank you, scott. 6 16. Back to our weather alert over the bay area this morning. Taking a live look outside from our palo alto camera. Wet conditions continue on the roadways out there. We have been looking at, laura, in sped up time. A time lapse to show you from the s. A. P. Center as you can see the camera shaking around. This is what was going on overnight. The palm trees going from side to side with all heavy wind and rain coming in overnight. Things starting to calm down now this morning. On and off now today . Yeah, the rain will be. Can you believe the winds last night . We had sustained winds and some gusts at 40 to 60 Miles Per Hour. So thats why as you head out this morning theres just branches and trees down all over the place. And its still wet as we get a live look outside at san jose. Cant show this shot enough because it really tells the picture. Its still very wet out there around the bay area, and its 55 degrees right now in san jose. The high today, 64. And the sevenday forecast is coming up at the bottom of the screen, starting out in San Francisco. Rain today and part of the day tomorrow. So well talk about that. As the rain tapers off, we will have cloudy skies and breezy winds. Picking up from the gusty winds yesterday. This afternoon, more scattered showers moving in. And a few heavy downpours likely as you head out for dinner late this evening. For the weekend, spotty rain early tomorrow, but then were looking at late day clearing and dry on sunday. Heres that storm system, a very large storm system. Still drawing in some moisture off the pacific with some scattered showers this morning. Not everyone is seeing the rain right now. In fact, this is a little bit of a break. But where we do still see the showers and most of Sonoma County moving through santa rosa right now, and then were also seeing spotty showers across parts of the east bay and the south bay. A little bit of a break once again. Cloudy skies. A look at the timeline. 2 30 this afternoon, the rain starts to roll back into the north bay. And some pockets of heavy rain. The rest of the bay area seeing it as you head out for friday night, going out to the clubs, the movies, dinner, well see the rain moving in once again. It will be pouring until about midnight, and then we start to see the rain tapering off. Early tomorrow morning, another round of rain. But this one doesnt look as heavy. But still kind of putting a damper on those saturday plans. Especially early in it day. Cool and breezy late day on saturday and then monday the north bay may see another round of rain during the morning while the rest of the bay area stays dry. Youre getting the picture here. Were not done with the rain. More downpours expected for the middle of next week. As your weekend plans take you over towards the sierra or if they do, were looking at chain controls required in parts of the interstate 80 and 50 as well. And look at how much additional snow we could see this weekend. If you can make it there, its going to be amazing. There could be another two feet of snow in the sierra for those Higher Elevations above 5,000 feet. Looking at the forecast here in, 62 degrees. Showers today. Early tomorrow, showers. And dry on sunday. Monday also looking dry as we head back to work. And for the middle of next week, well being more rain. And mike has weather delays on b. A. R. T. Even b. A. R. T. Gets affected by the weather. The tracks need starting and stopping so theyll often slow the trains down a bit. East bay lines only effected right now between south hayward and the warm springs station. You may minor delays. This is residual from the heavier rain earlier and also the vallejo to San Francisco ferry is not running. The substitute would be the bus service. That is not weather related. Theyre doing maintenance on the ferry boats. Meanwhile, the rest of the bay shows smooth traffic. Standing water reported in many spots, but no full closures of any ramps or freeways. Much better news than we often see in inclement weather. The north baysa a lot of rain earlier, also sees it now, and wind, thats the advisory for folks through the area. This looks great getting to the bay bridge where the metering lights are on. Some folks have to make this choice. What is their route . Waze will help you. Our partners at waze show you over toward the bay bridge, a 54minute drive. Folks can make that drive and longer so consider yourself lucky if you have a shorter commute.

Law, the white house will likely argue today the president has Broad Authority originally given to president bush in 2001 to prosecute terrorism, originally attended for strikes against al qaeda and the taliban, but we expanded that to isis and now perhaps to the syrian government. As for international law, attacking a sovereign country without u. N. Approval is against international law, but the president could make a reasonable argument that he was protecting u. S. Forces. Remember, we have boots on the ground in syria and remember, we bombed syria every day. Sometimes more than once a day. Here, were hitting isis targets in eastern syria.

The next military step may be to send a strike package against isis and see what the russians do when we overfly syria. Thats probably going to happen today. This is an awfully complicated situation.
