Right now iselle is bearing down on the big island. It is expected to make landfall later today. There are some people who could be in trouble because of these storms. Their trips may have to be pushed back. Already at least one flight to hawaii has been canceled out of sfo today. Iselle is expected to bring heavy rain and high surf and could disrupt more than a few vacations over on the islands.

Ukiah. Some inland areas in the 90s. But the fog and low clouds will keep temperatures on the cooler side by the coast and bay. A normal pattern for us. Fog on the coast. A westerly breeze.

But you have to remember, i mean, there is some very Tall Mountain areas over the big islands. So some of the impacts are kind of unknown.

This is going to be a foot of rain for some. You get tremendous lifting on the wind ward side. No doubt about it. Maybe things will be a little better on the kona side.

Fog, sun, back to warm for some. A seabreeze, thats a westerly wind. 80s, 90s inland. 60s, 70s by the bay. Heres brian. Thank you so much. When you thought things were Getting Better in terms of the traffic world, things happen. What can i say . One of the places that were talking about, the bay bridge toll plaza. Just a few minutes ago you saw traffic moving pretty freely there, but again it is backed up. The reason why . Because there is a disabled vehicle blocking one of the toll lanes there. So that is definitely going to back up traffic at least for a few minutes while crews try to remove that car that is blocking the toll lane. The winner in terms of traffic today would probably be the grade. Traffic has been moving great through this. The traffic on the right side heading towards the south bay in san jose typically you see traffic right there but its been moving pretty nicely it morning. Taking a look at the south bay, this has improved since the last ten minutes or so besides the typical traffic that you see on northbound 101 and 280 as well. Taking a look off the san mateo bridge, a little bit of traffic again off northbound 101 and southbound as well. And this is looking pretty good on the other side of the san mateo bridge as well. At 8 33 heres dave. Thank you. A woman in fremont is questioning the Justice System after a man she claims terrorized her reportedly struck again. Police say jamala morris tied up two women over the weekend and sexually assaulted one of them. This came as a shock to a woman who says he also attacked her. Janine de la vega joining us live now. You are in fremont to explain what this is all about. Reporter dave t this woman was was shocked when she saw morris mugshot on the news a couple of days ago. She says what he did to her terrified her and she just cant believe that he was let out of jail. 34yearold jamal morris was arrested sunday after police say he robbed, tied up two women, and sexually assaulted the mother in fremont. But that wasnt his First Encounter with police. Last August Fremont resident crystal escalante says he attempted to break into her apartment and then torched her car before leading officers on a high speed chase down interstate 880. While authorities confirm he was arrested for those things, he was convicted for evading police and driving under the influence. He was sentenced for seven months in jail and released this spring. The system has failed me, those two victims and anybody else that hes manipulated, hurt, whatever the case may be. And enough is enough. Reporter escalante believes justice was not served in her case but hopes it is for his latest accusers. The District Attorneys Office says it you cant comment further on the morris case and his past. According to Court Documents, he has three prior felony convictions and at last check morris is under a psychiatric hold in jail. Reporting live from fremont, janine de la vega, ktvu channel 2 news. 8 35. The bay area woman who snuck onto a flight from san jose to los angeles is talking about what she did and why she did it. Last night 62yearold Marilyn Hartman walked out of the airport courthouse after pleading no contest to a misdemeanor charge of trespassing. She was sentenced to two years probation and ordered to stay away from lax. Miss hartman says she is homeless. She only has 4. 25 to her fame. She also said she didnt mean to cause trouble but says her life is pretty bad. Reporter what was your desperate situation . Oh, homelessness. Homelessness. I had been in some pretty awful situations and so i took desperate measures. I am an american, first and foremost, and i believe very strongly in the security of this country. In that regard, it was very stupid. Miss hartman says she doesnt know what she will do next. She says her Social Security debit card was stolen. Jail guards did give her directions to go to a shelter near the airport last night. 2 investigates examines how hartman was able to slip past security and hop on a plane without a boarding pass. A source familiar with the investigation tells us hee went around a tsa agent who was busy dealing with a family. She went through the devices screening for weapons of mass destruction and explosives at the for weapons and explosionives at the main terminal. She tried to board a flight where she was stopped and turned away by an alaska employee. She then boarded a southwest plane by sneaking past the gate agent who was occupied with a group of passengers. This is urgent because this woman, although she was harmless, next time we might not be so lucky. Southwest airlines is conducting its own investigation into the incident. As we reported yesterday the Transportation Security Administration will make minor changes to the layout of the security checkpoint to prevent another Security Breach. Some east bay parents are threatening to sue over Sex Education classes they say are too explicit for students. Incoming freshmen at fremonts six high schools are required to take the health class. The parents say the schools are using Course Materials designed for College Classes with content that is too provacative, including oral sex, vibrators, and bondage. The district, however, defends the decision. The teacher doesnt teach every single page and every single item in the textbook. The teacher really says what are the parts that i need to use in order to meet the california standards . More than 1200 people have signed an online petition demanding that the fremont district stop using the book. Some parents are also planning to take legal action. The district says students can opt out of the class. Time is 8 38. Taking action here in the bay area against west nile virus. Ktvus pam cook is in our studio with more on the deaths of two people in northern california, pam, and a heartbreaking warning from a woman. Reporter yes. Very interesting. State Health Officials announced two deaths linked to west nile virus. One a 74yearold woman from sacramento county, but she did have an underlying Chronic Health condition. The only information we have about the second person who died is that it was an adult from Shasta County.

Now, many people or worry about spraying for mosquitoes but we spoke to a woman who has a warning for others. She contracted west nile virus back in 2005.

Dont fight deet. Dont tell me you are going to get a geranium and its going to keep the mosquitoes away, because its not. Reporter now a spokesperson for Vector Control says the chemicals being sprayed have been rigorously tested and they pose minimal risk to humans and pets. Health professionals do say that people with asthma or other respiratory issues may want to take extra precautions during spraying. That includes keeping your windows shut and air conditioners off during the spraying. You might want to keep your pets inside so they dont come in direct contact with the spraying and they advise to make sure you wash home grown fruits and vegetables after spraying sessions.

Executives who are found to be negligent or performing poorly. Life in washington, Kyla Campbell, ktvu channel 2 news. Time is 8 45. Lets bring you up to date on some of the other top stories we are following for you right now. Two hours ago Doctors Hospital in san pablo stopped accepting ambulances. That financially strapped hospital is due to close down in october, but it may actually close sooner because many of its employees are leaving for other jobs. Lastminute preparations are underway in San Francisco for the big outside lands festival in San Francisco. Thousands of fans expected to pack Golden Gate Park. Now, for the first time this year surveillance cameras will be used out there. This after reports of a Sexual Assault at the festival in 2012. And the lines at a costco in honolulu, hawaii, they are long again today. Customers buying up supplies before hurricanes iselle and julio hit today and saturday. Stores like costco and home depot have been trying to keep up with demands, but in some cases theyre still running out of supplies. Ktvus alex savidge live at sfo. Flights have been delayed or canceled for the islands . Reporter yes. Some travelers may have to push back their trips a bit. Already one flight out of sfo heading to hawaii has been canceled today. Duty manager says they are keeping a close tab on the situation over there, a close watch on the situation and its possible more flights could be canceled to hawaii as we move throughout the day today. Still a lot of flights have been leaving from sfo to hawaii this morning. We have been talking with some of those travelers. Even though iselle is closing in on the big island right now and forecasters expect it will make lands fall later on today, iselle is expected to bring heavy rain, high surf, the possibility of flooding, and, of course, that could ruin more than a few vacations. I talked a short time ago with a couple who wanted to call off their vacation because of the storms but they tell me they couldnt cancel because their hotel wouldnt cancel the reservations and wouldnt ajust those reservations. While some travelers are anxious as they head off to hawaii this morning others are just shrugging off these two hurricanes. Are you worried at all . Its just rain. Rain and wind. No problem. I was told high winds. I have got second thoughts about going. Reporter and iselle is the first of two storms expected to hit hawaii over the coming days. Hurricane julio will likely make landfall sometime this weekend. And some airlines, because of these storms, are giving customers a break. United and hawaiian wont be charging any fees to change reservations because of these storms. And there are some major hotels that are also dropping their cancellation fees as well. Again, at this point one flight from sfo to hawaii has been canceled today and there is a possibility of more cancellations later on today. Live this morning at sfo, alex savidge, ktvu channel 2 news. At our website we have information about various Airline Policies on these storms. You will find it in the hot topics section on the home front page. 8 48. Want to check in with brian flores in for sal this morning and see how traffic is doing on this morning. Good morning. Traffic looking good in some parts. Not so great in other parts. As we take a look at 880 this morning this is one of the better parts this morning. Traffic looking really good as you pass the coliseum. A little bit south of that towards fremont is where it gets heavy. Taking a look at the maps, this is where the damage was really done in the city or towards the city. 101 northbound as you approach 280 an earlier accident. The chp has since closed that incident but they just got the cars that were involved out of the way. But the damage has been pretty much done there. And taking a look at the bay bridge toll plaza this morning traffic would typically be better now but we understand that there is a disabled car that is blocking one of the toll lanes there. So traffic is backed up. That is backed up way past the maze all the way onto the east shore freeway. Heres steve. Thank you very much there, brian. We have a lot of low clouds around. Our pattern is back to a quiet, normal pattern. Not this tropical stuff or rain. Drizzle maybe saturday. Keeping a close eye on iselle heading 280, 300 miles from heel owe moving westnorthwest. Usually they go south of the big island. Is the impacts arent really known. But you can bet because of the high terrain there is probably going to be a lot of rain. This would not be two hurricanes hitting because julio is expected to hit north. Iselle is going over the big island and south over oahu and maui. So hurricane warnings. Also Tropical Storm warnings. There is going to be easily a foot of rain. Some of these elevations are high so thats going to wring out a lot of moisture. For us we have a lot of low clouds and fog here and that just means we are back to its not 70 in walnut creek. Thats a higher elevation. I dont know where that comes from. Livermore 64. Concord 63. 65 mountain view. Everyone pretty close. Fairfield a decent breeze but nothing crazy and there is definitely a fog bank out there. With that in mind temperatures back in the 60s, 70s, 80s, or 90s. Pretty close to average for this time of year. Today looks to be warmest over the next five. Warm for some. Cool for others. Upper 80s, 90s, 60s closer to the coast. Low cloud deck is there. No doubt about it. Our weather is quiet. Maybe we will get a cooldown on the weekend. There could be some more tropical early next week. Thank you, steve. It is nine minutes before 9 00. New this morning the Oscar Pistorius murder trial wrapped up a short time ago for the day with the defense in the middle of its final arguments. The defense will pick up tomorrow morning. So far its accused the prosecution of ignoring the facts of the case to fit its arguments. Earlier today the prosecutor called pistorius a liar, hatching several different theories in a dishonest attempt to deflect the fact that he shot and killed his girlfriend reeva steenkamp. The prosecutor even used a metaphor describing that the olympic sprinter dropped the baton on truth. Pistorius faces 25 years to life in prison if convicted of premeditated murder. Time is 8 52. Talk about a lasting impression. Changing gears, matching mementos from a Paul Mccartney concert that a San Francisco woman and her daughter will never forget. Crews continue to work on sir Francis Drake boulevard in marin county. A portion of the roadway near San Quentin State Prison was damaged when a big rig flipped over and spilled 4,000 gallons of gas. The chp says cleanup efforts by caltrans have been taking place a few days a week since the accident. Crews are working to replace the part of the roadway that was saturated with the gas. Lanes will continue to be shifted and closed until the work is done, but there is no burned when that will be. Investigators may have discovered the cause of a fire at a former hotel in San Francisco. Cal osha says the flames may have been started by some welding work during a renovation project at the former hotel. Eight construction workers were injured. Seven were taken to the hospital for smoke inhalation. All of their injuries were considered minor. The fire burned for more than three hours. Most people go to a concert, they leave with a tshirt. But a San Francisco woman and her daughter who went to a Paul Mccartney concert in montana got something they will never forget. Sharon white and her daughter made signs begging Paul Mccartney to bring them up on stage. Well, guess what . He did it. Then he autographed their shoulders. Well, they decided to make that autograph permanent. They made it into matching tattoos. And this is not the first time the whites have seen mccartney in concert. They have traveled around the nation to see him perform, and definitely they plan to be in San Franciscos Candlestick Park when he takes the stage next thursday. 8 56. Today is the start of the fifth annual Lego Convention . Santa clara. The event is designed to inspire and celebrate lego fans and their creations.

So Pretty Amazing stuff. I wish theyd figure a way to clean it up. When my boys played with it, it was a mess. Legos everywhere. Lets check one more time with brian flores. You have got a lot going on, right . I do. And i clean up a lot of legos. I know you do. A lot of legos in my house. Traffic not looking too bad. Bad in some parts, as we mentioned. As we take a last look at the traffic this morning westbound 580 looking great through the Livermore Valley. Highway 84 still red through 680. Highway 4 stopandgo traffic. But this is great once you get pasta point into the concord area. The bay bridge toll plaza starting to back up because one car is blocking the toll lanes. We are trying to get an update whether that car is removed. We have not heard back. Pretty significant backup on the bay bridge toll plaza. Heres steve. We have a lot of low clouds around. Sunny inland for some. A wide variety of temps. 50s, 60s by the coast. There will be drizzle towards saturday morning. Thank you, steve.
