We have the gang all here and we have a little weather and we have a little bit of rain coming our way. Yeah. Im not upset about anything. Im pretty excited about this. I know a lot of folks start to get a little bit, um, worried about the rain coming in as we are going to see showers and showers and showers probably over the next four to five days. How about that so we are we go. We have some rain off the coast now, clouds coming our way. It will stay dry for the better part of today but tonight, that will likely change. The clouds will be on the increase, the temperatures are going to stay mild. Still some 60s and some low 70s. Out the door right now, partly cloudy skies. Not as cold as yesterday and thats because of the cloud cover. 45 degrees in livermore 54 in San Francisco. Still a chilly 38 in santa rosa.

Well take you down a little farther south. The roadwork is still continuing. It was scheduled to wrap up by five northbound and southbound 880 between union city and fremont. Alvarado niles and fremont boulevard. But we are still see a few slowdowns in the northbound lanes. So obviously something is still out there. They should be wrapping things up shortly. Dublin interchange commute everything is great but that hitandrun accident approaching vasco, may still be blocking one lane and obviously things are slow behind it it.

Moments later deputies tried to stop the car but the driver sped off. The San Jose City council gets a report today on the citys shortage of Police Officers. Kpix 5s keit do is in san jose with a preview of what the council will learn. Reporter this report is different from all the chatter that went on before the election. That is because this report is signed by the police chief himself prepared by city staff so in theory, it is free from any spin or rhetoric. It paints a bleak picture for the San Jose Police department. According to an advanced copy of the report obtained by the mercury news, right now, the department has about 1,010 officers to drop to 949 in upcoming years. That would be the lowest number of officers in 30 years. The report is based on the assumption that the department will continue to lose about 3 to 4 officers a month to retirement or other departments. The report says they cant fill the academies fast enough with new blood to cover the losses and when they do the police chief says they are drawing from a lower qualified candidate pool. This is blamed on ongoing legal battles over pension reform, disability reform and low pay. The city council reinstated pay rates and mayor liccardo plans to do more. Accelerating hiring, get more officers on the street and continue to use more innovative approaches to make san jose safer. Reporter and this report says that they have had trouble recruiting even though the city of san jose has set aside 10 million in reserves to hire more cops. Michelle . Kiet, all this must mean the remaining officers are working a lot of overtime, right . Reporter yes. These officers are exhausted. A lot of them working five or six days a week. They typically have a fourday workweek. They work 10 hours a day four days a week. A lot of officers have been pulled from the investigative units so these are detectives that are now back on patrol which means that they are not investigating other crimes. So much overtime that in the last fiscal year they spent 25 million alone on overtime. Live at San Jose Police headquarters, kiet do, kpix 5. Keystone xl pipeline proposal could come down to a single vote in the senate today. 59 senators have voiced support for it. 60 votes are needed. The vote could also affect the balance of the senate. Its a senator democrat Mary Landrieu from oilrich louisiana. She trails her republican challenger in the polls in next months Runoff Election. Both parties for different political reasons in the senate of the United States was blocking a vote on keystone. But when the elections were over, the politics cleared up. The proposed crude oil pipeline would run nearly 1200 miles from the canadian tar sands down to the gulf coast refineries. A bay areabased National Guard unit will be deployed to west africa to help efforts to curb the ebola outbreak. The San Francisco unit is among 6 National Guard battalions activated to provide support in the region. They wont treat patients but will provide training on ebola and malaria prevention. We all wanted to be used for a function and so it didnt matter whether our function was to be provisional Rifle Company or to go out there and do humanitarian work. The unit will ship out this coming spring. Upon their return, the soldiers will be monitored closely for ebola symptoms for 21 days. 5 08. The governor of missouri calling in the National Guard to ferguson even before a grand jury decides whether to indict a Police Officer in the Fatal Shooting of an unarmed team. As Andrew Spencer tells us, many ferguson residents are unhappy with the move. Reporter primarily peaceful protests have in the past turned confrontational. Police have been accused of provoking the crowd and many people are displeased by the governors declaration of a state of emergency in ferguson. I would go as far as to say the entire region is gripped by fear from the announcement of the National Guard, police, grenades, helmets, shields, its like theyre preparing for war instead of peace. Reporter its not clear yet when a grand jury will hand down a decision on whether to indict officer Darren Wilson in the Fatal Shooting of michael brown. Its not clear how people will react. People have formed opinions about it. You know, those who want to believe that officer wilson should be indicted, i dont think any decision by this grand jury is going to change their decisions about that. Reporter governor jay nixon says he is bringing in the National Guard as a precaution in case the announcement sparks violence like what has occasionally been seen in the aftermath of browns death. This would be from our standpoint a secondary role. We would not have the guard on the front lines interacting with dealing with confronting protestors. Reporter meanwhile, the role of the Ferguson Police department has been diminished. Instead, the st. Louis Police Department will take the lead. Im Andrew Spencer reporting. Time now 5 10. Tense moments in a chicago neighborhood of a Small Plane Crashes into a home there. The close call for the family inside that house. Reporter oh, yes. That time. Year again. Good morning, everyone.

Ed lees out there was all right. Lets see. Lets go out to livermore. I had mentioned that earlier accident. Thats out there was, as well. It looks like all lanes are back open approaching vasco. Unfortunately, were still seeing slow behind slow traffic behind it. You can see the delays beginning in tracy the usual spot around Mountain House and continue to just about the vasco exit where that earlier accident is now cleared. We are going to zoom into the area. The drive time is still in the clear category about 15 minutes from the Wind Turbines out to 680 and the dublin interchange. Milpitas near 880 237, we just got off the phone with caltrans and if you are continuing northbound on to 880 between fremont and union city, the roadwork is actually still there causing a few delays approaching Alvarado Niles between fremont boulevard and Alvarado Niles. Its actually scheduled until 6 00 so you can see right there is our camera zooming past some of the slow sensors southbound roadwork is clear though. And if you are traveling farther north on the nimitz freeway, 880 in oakland near the coliseum, everything looks great. This is the Oakland Coliseum area there to your ride taillights still moving fine all the way up to your downtown oakland exits. Bay bridge, that earlier stall past Treasure Island cleared, as well.

So yeah, out the door right now, we have some clouds moving across our skies. Look at that nice swirl, that area of low pressure off the coast as that storm system winding up gets ready to move onshore but i think the better part of the day looking dry. In fact, some mild temperatures. We are going to see some southerly winds that will likely warm up the temperatures especially into the south bay but it looks like a wet weather pattern is setting itself up tomorrow through the weekend. Looks like we could see some rain as early as tonight as this system is going to start to move onshore bringing the showers later on in the latter part of the evening, then overnight into early tomorrow morning could be a wet commute. Temperatures around the state 60s and 70s for today and staying dry. About 72 degrees partly cloudy into monterey bay. Computer models showing you just those clouds kind of thickening up in the latter half of the day but staying dry through 8 00 in the evening so your commute home looks good. Later tonight looks like the showers moving in tomorrow morning showers and downpours on and off tomorrow winding down late tomorrow afternoon and theres another storm system, just get a hint of it well up to the north there, that will be moving in late thursday. So how about some rain totals . I think the mountaintops you could see upwards to an inch, lesser down below but still maybe just over. 25 into San Francisco so nice soaker coming in our direction. Not today, it will stay dry. 60s and 70s, unsettled weather pattern rain just about every day in the forecast.

Good morning, its tuesday, november 18. Im michelle griego. Hi, everyone. Im frank mallicoat. It is 5 30. Taxi drivers at sfo say Ridesharing Services are unfairly taking their customers and tensions are reaching the boiling point. Ryan takeo joins us live at sfo where protests caused a lot of problems last night for travelers. Good morning. Reporter thats right. Huge headaches for travelers. Were talking about two hours where cab drivers were blocking lanes, they were refusing to pick anyone up. One guy talked to the chronicle, he used his horn so much it wasnt working anymore because they were really going at it last night protesting unlike we have seen before. It affected travelers. Travelers were protesting Ridesharing Services. There were long lines and backups heading in and out of sfo last night from 9 to 11. Taxi drivers complained the city of San Francisco heavily regulates them and not these tech rideshare companies. Signs on many of the taxis read, this vehicle has full time insurance, tnc uber and lift companies do not. Taxi drivers have been protesting for years but this is a pretty unique protest. One driver says why it was necessary. He says his pay has been cut by a third they are our enemy, you know . They take our business. They working, you know, without commercial insurance. They pick up with cheap prices. Reporter prices taxis cannot compete with. For example, taxi drivers complain about a 4 fee automatically tacked on to rides to and from sfo. Rideshare companies dont have to pay that. Live at sfo, ryan takeo, kpix 5.

The better part of the day well see some increasing clouds especially in the latter half of the afternoon but the southerly winds likely to bring temperatures up in the 70s and low 70s. Out the door we have some partly cloudy skies over the bay. Temperatures all over the map. 54 San Francisco. 38 santa rosa. 46 san jose. 50 concord. This afternoon, warm temperatures especially in the south bay 71 in san jose. 70 in mountain view. 70 degrees in oakland. And about 68 degrees in San Francisco. Lets check the roads with elizabeth. Thank you, lawrence. Things are getting interesting at the bay bridge toll plaza. The cash lanes are quickly filling in every minute we see a few more cars hitting the bay bridge toll plaza. The middle lanes though still look okay if you are a fastrak user and, hey, better news now for fremont commuters, union city commuters all along 880. They did pick up that overnight roadwork and now the delays are gone. That changed in the last couple of minutes.

Kpix 5s kiet do in san jose now taking it a look at the report thats going to the Council Later today. Good morning, kiet. Reporter good morning. Whats troubling about this report is that it is not the worstcase scenario. You could make the argument that the views and projections in this report are optimistic. The mercury news has obtained an advance copy of the report that the city council will see and it says that the current numbers of San Jose Police officers stands at 1,010 sworn officers. By next july that number is projected to drop to 988. And then by july 2017 it will drop to 949. That would be the lowest number of officers the city has had in 30 years. The report is based on the assumption that the department will continue to lose about 3 to 4 officers a month to retirement or other departments. The report says they cannot fill their academies with enough new blood fast enough to cover the losses and when at the do, the police chief says they are drawing from a lower qualified candidate pool. All this is blamed on the legal battles over pension reform and disability reform and low pay. The city council has approved an 11 pay restoration and mayorelect sam liccardo promised to do more. We are going to get to work on ensuring that we can accelerate the hiring in this department, get more officers on the street and continue to use more innovative approaches to make san jose safer. Reporter and the report goes on to say that they are still having problems recruiting even though the city set aside a 10 million reserve fund to hire more cops. So i guess that means the remaining officers are working quite a bit of overtime, right . Reporter yes. So they typically work a four day week 10 hours a day work schedule. A lot of these officers are working five, six, sometimes seven days a week. They are exhausted. Detectives are being pulled from the Investigative Division to go back out on the streets. They spent 25 million a year last year in the fiscal year on overtime alone. Live at San Jose Police headquarters, kiet do, kpix 5. Developing news in israel where Police Say Two palestinians launched a terror attack today on a jerusalem synagogue. Israeli police have just identified the People Killed in the attack as three american citizens and one person from britain. All were rabbis. More now from cbs news alfonso van marsh. Reporter witnesses say two attackers used axes, knives and guns to kill at least four jews who were praying at a jerusalem synagogue. We heard gunshots from downstairs and, you know, heard one shot, two shots, then a flurry of shots. Reporter israeli Authorities Say the attackers were palestinians from East Jerusalem and died in a shootout with police. The Palestinian Militant Group hamas praised the killings but did not claim responsibility. U. S. Secretary of state john kerry condemned the attacks one of the deadliest in jerusalem in years. People who had come to worship god in the sanctuary of the synagogue were hatcheted and hacked and murdered in that holy place in an act of pure terror. Reporter palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas is also denouncing the violence amid palestinian and israeli tensions in the area over a contested holy site. Israels Prime Minister is vowing to respond harshly to what he calls, quote, a cruel murder of jews who came to pray and were killed by despicable murderers. Alfonso van marsh, cbs news. A crucifix recovered from a church fire in san jose is now a symbol of enduring faith for some of its parishioners. The crucifix made it through the fire at Holy Cross Parish church on sunday with barely a scratch or a burn mark. Firefighters braved the unstable sanctuary to save the crucifix in case the building might collapse. They used a ladder truck to carefully lift it down to the ground. Some called it a sign of hope. Theres not a scratch on it. Its like the day they made it. The whole wall surrounding the cross is charred and burned and the cross is untouched. The crucifix was made in italy decades ago. It was saved along with a few other religious statues inside. And now Structural Engineers will decide if the walls are stable enough to rebuild that church. Supporters of the keystone xl pipeline are trying to line up one more senator to vote yes on the project today. All 45 republicans support it as do 14 democrats. The bills chief sponsor is democratic louisiana senator Mary Landrieu, who is a Runoff Election next month. The house has already passed its version of the bill. The white house has threatened to veto similar legislation. As we said, the senate is expected to vote on the keystone xl pipeline but conditions are different six years after the project started. The prices of crude oil have gone down 30 since june and lower prices likely to remain in the first half of next year. Good news for us, of course. Cbs News Business analyst Jill Schlesinger is here to tell us whats behind the drop and how it could impact our economy and jill, we are not complaining but why is it so low . Reporter no complaints, right . But the u. S. Shale boom has boosted Oil Production to 8. 9 Million Barrels a day the highest monthly production since 1986. The government is forecasting that production is going to increase again up to 9. 4 Million Barrels next year. That would be the most since 1972. So on top of that increased supply, demand in china, japan and europe has waned. Put that together and you have a big drop, 30 as you said since the summer. So we all want to know, how does lower oil translate into prices at the pump . Reporter well, the price of crude oil accounts for about twothirds of the price of a gallon of gas. According to aaa, the National Average for regular unleaded gas is 2. 88. I know its national, not in the bay area. But it is down 80 cents from the april peak. Its the lowest price in four years nationally. That decline translates into an estimated savings of more than 250 million a day for motorists. Well, the good news is the Lower Energy Prices got to impact the economy. Reporter absolutely. Americans are expected to save 61 billion due to the these falling costs. Its not lot compared to a 17. 5 trillion dollar economy but it could immediately give consumers more money to spend on other things like, i dont know, Holiday Shopping maybe . In fact, economists say these Lower Energy Prices could increase 4th quarter growth by a quarter to a half of a percent. To learn more about the benefits of low energy prices, you can go to jillonmoney. Com. All right. Jill schlesinger, thank you. It is 5 41.

It landed on a comet last week and sent back a lot of information useful to scientists. But its been inactive since saturday because of solar powered batteries unable to recharge. Meanwhile, these newly released images show philaes landing on the comet. The lander bounced off when thrusters and harpoons failed to anchor it and it landed in a shallow crater. There is a new push to stop trains from carrying potentially hazardous cargo throughout the bay area. Kpix 5s Christin Ayers broke the crude by rail story this year and now has new information. Reporter its happening at least a few times a week. 100car trains rolling through richmond carrying dangerous cargo, highly flammable fracked crude oil that our cameras caught being transferred on trucks at richmonds Kinder Morgan facility. The oil is called bakken crude and last year it leveled a town in quebec when a train carrying it derailed. In a letter to the bay area air Quality Management district, Richmond City Attorney Says if a derailment happened in this city, the potential blast zone would impact 27 schools and hopes of the neighborhoods in richmond. The letter also says the city of richmond had no idea the trains were even running until an investigative report by kpix 5 televised the report showing the operation in action. And it urges the district to stop the trains cold. The letter asks that they revoke the permit if possible and have go through a complete Environmental Quality act review. Reporter but when we spoke to the bay area air Quality Management district months ago, they seemed to have no intention of doing that. We cant hold up their permit because theres public opposition. As long as something doesnt increase emissions, we give them the permit. Reporter Christin Ayers, kpix 5. And because of our story environmental groups filed a lawsuit in september to get the crude permit revoked. The lawsuit was thrown out because it was filed too late. Time now is 5 46. Lets check the roads with elizabeth. Its been a really easy commute so far. Theres almost nothing in the chp reports as far as major accidents incidents and all the overnight roadwork is officially clear. So well show you whats going on. You are seeing areas of congestion. Bay bridge toll plaza, they have switched on the metering lights at 5 41, just about 6 minutes ago they activated those lights already stacked up to the overcrossings a good 15 minutes to get on the bridge.
