Track. In san jose it took only a few minutes for firefighters to snuff out flames in a pile of scrap. It all went down at the megametals and iron company on stone avenue. Workers there had to evacuate for a bit. But then they got back to work. The cause is under investigation. And meteorologist paul deanno tells us fire danger will be high this weekend, right, paul . Reporter it is going to be high. Its going to be high for the foreseeable future. Were in our dry season, did not receive much rainfall for the entire winter or our wet season and days like today where the montgomery drops and the sun comes out for everybody, that fire danger gets elevated. We have live neighborhood weather in san rafael near that fire zone today. Mary silveri Elementary School where today was breezy, not windy, with gusts between 10 to 20 Miles Per Hour and currently its very comfortable but that fire danger is very elevated. Other winds around the bay area on average, 10 to 20 Miles Per Hour. The breeze is never good when youre talking about high fire danger. The west wind is grabbing some of the humidity from the cool Pacific Ocean so thats good news there. A north or east wind would be a problem. A west wind although not good is a little better. Well talk more about the fire danger and talk about your weekend because it cleared out everywhere today. Well talk about that. Stick around for your saturday and sunday. Live from San Francisco, paul deanno, back to you. Thank you. New at 5 00, big pot bust in the south bay worth half a million bucks.

Drivers made their voices heard about the planned closure of a major milpitas street. Fta was going to shut down Dixon Landing road for eight months for bart construction. It may be postponed but len ramirez tells us its not all good news for drivers. Len . Ro. Reporter veronica drivers in this particular neighborhood know about those problems. Im standing on Dixon Landing road one of the hot spots in the barttosan jose project. This intersection has it all, road and lean closures, heavy traffic and bush lane lane closures and traffic and businesses that say they have to close down. It will eventually fast track commuters but two years into construction they are stuck in the slow lane. Normally five minutes to school, now its 15. Reporter construction brought lanes to a trickle. Lanes are shut down in both directions crossing the bart route often at the same time. This man has to wait or drive around. Its pretty crazy in the morning. Reporter things are so bad drivers avoid the area and thats hurting businesses where it counts. [ indiscernible ] before they stopped construction then they closed the roads and people they are not coming in like they used to. Reporter three restaurants in this strip mall on mill month drive say business is down significantly since construction began but it hit joe the greek cafe the worst. The owner says construction is not the only factor but its at least half the reason its shutting down tomorrow. I have been here for 13 years. Whoa. And this is very bad. We have been as accommodating as possible. Reporter the Valley Transportation Authority which manages the project says it staggered closures and worked to lessen the impact but says some disruptions will happen. It is impossible to construct a 10mile project that crosses 11 major intersections and not have some impact on the existing traffic. Reporter the owners of the cafe wont be around to see the project finished. They have already said their goodbyes. I feel like losing cheers, so sad. Reporter the Valley Transportation Authority said the decision to postpone the closure of Dixon Landing road for eight months has nothing to do with neighborhood concerns and complaints. They say it is simply a permitting process with the city of milpitas and they expect that to be worked out shortly. Live in milpitas, len ramirez, kpix 5. The project still has a few more years to go. It is supposed to be finished in 2018. Well, the clock is ticking for muni and its drivers to make a deal but dont hold your breath. The union is less than pleased with managements latest offer. Yes, there is a raise. But drivers would have to contribute to their pension plans. They treated every other local union with a real swap. We are saying give us a real even swap and a simple raise like every other City Employee just got, then we can put this thing to bed. So there is a wage impact, but i believe its more than offset by a retirement benefit and thats why i think every other labor union in the city has agreed to do this. The deadline is sunday. If there is no deal by then the existing contract rolls over at the beginning of july. No word on what happens if the deal doesnt get done. We have already seen a sickout by muni drivers. New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is teaming up with californias republican governor nomine neel kashkari. They stopped at a flower shop warehouse on 7th street this morning.
