By tomorrow were bringing back the rain. Tomorrow afternoon, evening, into thursday. Its time to bring back the rain but were closer to records again today. San josi would be shy by one, napa, i dont think so. Im going 76. Sfo is in the mix and Oakland Airport close as well. But this system is getting closer and the wind is going to develop westerly. Few high clouds forming up to the north. Napa airport 44, san ramon 46, san josi Mountain View down 9, oakland down 3. You can see the trends, cooler, still a nice day. This is going to give us a huge change starting tomorrow. Cooler for the coast and bay, near 80 inland but a lighter breeze and few high clouds, 60s and 70s. Sal, are things better or worse . Some things are better. Its crowded out there. Well start with a look at the bay bridge, upper deck backed up a little bit. Its a little crowded into San Francisco. Most of the backup is at the toll plaza, about a 20 minute delay before you get on to the bridge. We are also looking at the commute on 880, which is not bad so far in oakland near the oakland coliseum. A little further down, earlier accident has been cleared but traffic is already slow. Westbound 92 is slow away from 880. 580 and 680 off to a bad start this morning as well. And one more thing, 680 through concord and walnut creek, its slow from before 242 all the way in. Highway 4 is also slow through most of pittsburg and bay point westbound. Back to the desk. A man suspected of shooting three people at a tourist spot over the weekend is behind bars this morning. The arrest came after a joint operation between San Francisco and Richmond Police. The arrest took Police Forces on both sides of the bay. The 26yearold man has not been identified yet and booked on two counts of murder, one count of attempted murder and one count of carjacking. He is the suspect in a shooting sunday morning around 2 00 a. M. In the parking lot of twin peaks. Police say after shooting three people, the gunman carjacked two tourists and took off in their denali. Police tracked him to a home in richmond and police followed him and stopped the vehicle he was in and arrested him. Police cars started to gather and we started to see like undercover police, and it looked like they were trying to closing in. Police say on sunday he killed two men and wounded a third who is still in the hospital with lifethreatening injuries. The denali the gunman allegedly stole was found near the richmond home where he was arrested. Police have not yet released the identity of the man or made an official statement on a possible motive in the shooting. We are hoping for more information through San Francisco police later this morning. When we get that update, well bring it to you. Officials at uc davis say two men face hate crime charges. A woman was walking near her residence in the west village area when she was physically assaulted about 3 00 a. M. She called police, who then arrested two men on assault and hate crime charges. A third man was charged with public intoxication. None of the suspects were students. Im very surprised to hear thats happening because davis is very accepting, friendly and tolerant place. I dont think this is something thats about davis, just individual mentality. The woman was not sexually assaulted and did not need medical treatment. The Sonoma County Sheriffs Department is searching for attorney steven mitchell, involved in a high profile case of a deputy who shot and killed a 13yearold. His car was discovered sunday at a parking lot on the coast of sonoma. His cell phone and clothing were found near the car. Its a mystery as to why he drove there and what may have happened to him. Right now we dont have any information to believe that anybody else took his vehicle there, no foul play is suspected. We are going on the premise that he drove his vehicle there himself. Mitchell was hired to defend the county against a civil lawsuit filed by the family of 13yearold andy lopez, shot to death three years ago by a sheriffs deputy while he was carrying a realistic looking toy gun. The Sheriffs Department says they dont believe his professional life has anything to do with his disappearance. The search goes on this morning for 73yearold john beck. This Instagram Photo shows him walking along a trail at lands end in San Francisco. It was taken a week ago, the same day he was dropped off for an appointment in oakland then disappeared. Hes facing a 113 million judgment from the ftc over a getrichquick scheme. His daughter says she doesnt think that has anything to do with his disappearance. A new pharmacy is expected to make a big difference in many peoples lives. Reporter the county says studies show that 23 of American Adults end up skipping getting their prescription drugs because of the high cost. That ends up leading to the worsening Health Condition and increased risk of cardiovascular events. County officials know this and thats why they established the Better Health pharmacy for those who cant afford their prescriptions and they can get free prescription drugs here in downtown san josi on east santa clara near 15th street. Its the first drug donation pharmacy in northern california. They carry donated drugs from nursing facilities throughout the state that are in Good Standing. The medication is inspected by pharmacists before being dispensed, so no copay is needed. The pharmacy wont always carry your prescription, though. A list of drugs is posted on their website and it can change depending on whats donated. They will also not dispense controlled drugs like pain medication or vicodin. The grand opening is at 10 00 a. M. But normally this pharmacy will be open monday through wednesday 4 00 to 8 00 p. M. As well as on saturdays 9 00 a. M. To 1 00 p. M. This is all run by volunteer pharmacists as well as the county. Great idea. Thank you. The Alameda City Council is expected to vote on the rental control proposals. They want alameda to stay affordable. This would limit rent increases to once a year and calls for landlords to notify the city when a hike is 5 or more. They would also have to pay moving costs if they evict a tenant. The meeting is moved to the kaufman auditorium to make room for more people. Friends of a man shot on valentines day cant understand why a good person would be killed. The victim is not identified by the coroner but his friends held this vigil last night for the man they call d. C. They say he didnt have much family but he was beloved in the neighborhood for always doing good deeds. He was helping to park a roommates car when he was fatally shot. He crashed into a pole and died at the scene. He fixed all the kids bikes in the neighborhood. Every time they had a flat tire, hed fix their bike. He fed people that were hungry and if you didnt have a place to spend the night, hed let you spend the night at his home. He was awesome. Some neighbors wonder if the shooting was a case of mistaken identity. Coming up, well talk about the punishment for two types of violations. And he may not be one of the smartest criminals, and the personal item he left behind should make it easy for police to find him. A lot of traffic in the east bay today. We have a couple things that made it a little harder. Beautiful picture of the city. The bridge itself doesnt look bad once youre on it. And we have a few high clouds today, cooler with big changes on the way. It took Joel Silverman years to become a master dog trainer. But only a few commands to master depositing checks at chase atms. Technology designed for you. So you can easily master the way you bank. Welcome back. Now to the death of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia and the political battle over filling his seat. A uc berkeley political professor tells us republicans may stand firm and may block anyone the president nominates. The constitution says the President Shall nominate and appoint a judge with the advice and consent of the senate. But with 54 republicans in the senate, a republican majority, the president could find it really hard to get a nominee considered. In the meantime, the remaining 8 justices will reconvene next monday and try to figure out how scalias death will affect the cases that have already been heard. They have been voted on already but the court has not released an opinion yet. There are a lot of cases that the court reached a tentative decision on, and now they will have to go back and see if the loss of scalia changed the outcome. There were cases assigned to scalia to write the opinion, that will need to be reassigned. In some cases it could mean the outcome will change. There are critical cases the court has yet to hear, including one that challenges restrictions texas placed on abortion clinics and the challenge brought by several states on obamas executive action on immigration. Former president bush is hitting the campaign trail in support of his brother, saying hed make a really good president. Jeb also spoke in his brothers defense, saying bush helped keep the u. S. Safe following the 9 11 attacks. Donald trump hasnt backed down from his criticism of the former president s record. I never thought in a Republican Debate wed be talking about impeaching a republican twoterm president who was extraordinarily popular for good reason among republicans. I thought that was a little weird. Hillary clinton is campaigning in nevada where the democratic caucuses will be held on saturday. One recent poll shows a virtual tie between Hillary Clinton and bernie sanders. An armed robber in sacramento left behind some evidence that could lead to his arrest. It was a selfie he took with his cell phone. Deputies say 52yearold carlos came home earlier this month to find a man with a gun demanding he get on the ground. Instead, he ran to his bedroom and called 911. The robber ran away but not before leaving behind wet clothing, a bottle and his cell phone still charging in the kitchen. Even though i got away, for those few seconds, my life flashed before my eyes. The robber also took hot dogs out of the refrigerator, possibly to keep his pit bull from attacking. Making himself at home. Wow. Lets go to sal. All the light traffic is a distant dream. Thats right. Cant be gone forever because people have to go to work. We are looking at a commute where traffic is i would give it a bplus here as we look at some of the commutes. Go to thes shore freeway, traffic here on 80 westbound is just okay coming up from the carquinez bridge. Really for this time of the morning, doesnt seem that unusual. There is a lot of slow traffic. If youre going to the richmond bridge, youll see slow traffic coming in heading west to the toll plaza. Again, not unusual. Lets go and take a look at 880 northbound and southbound here in front of the coliseum. Traffic is going to be okay. East bay commute hasnt been good. Westbound 580 off to an early start with earlier problems. 680 slow through pleasanton. Earlier accident at maori is gone but the damage is done. Hello, steve. Hello, sal. How you doing this tuesday that feels like a monday . I cant complain. We have a few high clouds to the north, big changes in the temps. Well see a big change tomorrow and going into friday. This is rather common in the winter time to get a stretch, sometimes even 17, 20 days of dry weather. It ends top. Today is the day to get out and enjoy it because well have clouds and cooler temps coming in. 55 degrees, bring on the rain. Possible records today, San Francisco 73. The old record is 75. Sfo will be close, within 1. Oakland airport would tie if they hit 73. Officially napa was 78 and im going 73. San josi, record 78 and san rafael 76. Theyre still warm and very close to some records. Lake county, some of this is working its way back. I think its a sign to come. 47 santa rosa, way down from yesterday. Napa 44, fairfield 43, palo alto 46, Half Moon Bay has jumped with a little breeze warming them up in the last hour or so. 40s in the north bay, 54 mill valley. Theres the temperature difference, significant, down 8 and 9. We have lost most of that breeze, but we have gusts up to 30 out of the caldecotts. 20s in the mountains and 30s, South Lake Tahoe 23. Some of the higher clouds here starting to form, so thats a sign of things to come as this system sweeps through and well see temperatures take a plunge here. Sunny today, lighter breeze today. It will be a little cooler in the coast and bay. I think the east breeze is replaced by a westerly wind. 70s to upper 70s. A lot of temps were wind driven. If you had the northeast breeze, it was probably 8 degrees warmer than a couple blocks away. 70s on the coast, starting to cool down later today. Rain is on the way for the evening commute. Friday looking better as we go into the allimportant weekend. Weve been talking about taking advantage of the sunny days. As long as you dont have rain, get out there and enjoy it. East bay Regional Park couldnt be prettier. The creeks and streams are still rushing and you can get out there. Thats right. Everybody is talking about the Grammy Awards, a Technical Glitch while adele was singing last night. One of those talked about moments. And coming up, what she says went wrong. First, though, cashing in on the business of fear. The littleknown industry thats getting a big boost after recent terror attacks in the United States. Starting today, airlines in the United States can submit for flights to cuba in the fall, the first scheduled Service Since the 1959 revolution. This is part of the agreement between the u. S. And cuba being signed today in havana. Airlines have 15 days to submit proposals for as many as 150 daily flights to cuba. Russia says their war planes were not involved in strikes in syria yesterday. A Childrens Hospital and school were hit, killing at least 12 people. Last week world powers agreed to a temporary ceasefire to go into effect at the end of this week. Aid groups hope to deliver medicine and aid to the area but many say they are skeptical the ceasefire will hold. The bunker building industry is picking up here in the u. S. More people are trying to protect themselves against a possible terror attack. The builders of the survival shelters say they have been busy because people are scared by recent world events. Atlas survival shelters near los angeles builds bunkers, and they are blastproof with their own air systems and you bury them 10 feet underground. The atlas survival shelter is basically the last protection that you could buy in case of a nuclear, biological or chemical attack. Every time theres a terror attack, my phone starts ringing. They start at about 20,000 and can go up to 300,000. We have been enjoying lower gas prices but they may not go much lower. Four oilproducing companies have agreed not to process more oil than they did last month. Its the first time in a year theres been a coordinated effort to boost oil prices. Iran and iraq must also stop increasing their production. If all the oilproducing countries cut back on production, it could mean higher gas prices. The American Band performing when terrorists stormed a concert hall are taking the stage in paris again. Coming up, how some are reacting to that concert. Reporter its the start of the commercial crab fishing season later this week. Well talk about the important Conference Call scheduled for this morning. Good morning.

Higher clouds starting to form a halfmoon if you will up toward lake county, northern napa county. 60 in pacifica, Half Moon Bay from 46 to 59 to 58, all over the place here. Mid40s for the peninsula. Other temps are in the 40s, a lot more 40s than yesterday. If we get the offshore breeze, in place for most of San Francisco, i think this system is getting close enough that the wind is going to turn westerly. Mostly sunny, high clouds mainly to the north, a lighter breeze today and its roaring above the caldecott at 30 miles an hour. I saw 20 to 30 in the oakland hills. Sal, 7 32. I love the plane shot. Could we put that back up . Southwest wind onefive, clear 180. Thats beautiful. Did i say alaska . I dont know. Thats alaska. Alaska airlines, coming in from the seattle on time. Thank you. Thank you very much. We have had our fun. Lets go to the macarthur maze. Youre clear to land. Problem is, theres a lot of waiting here, attacking out to the bay bridge toll plaza. It is backed up about 15 to 20 minutes once you get to the toll plaza. The total time is more like a half hour. Lets talk 880 north and southbound. Northbound is beginning to show signs of slowing. All the slow traffic, ill show you the east bay map. You know my maps change colors. Look at all the red on 80, slow from san leandro to fremont, pretty solid. Thats not enough . What about concord, 680 from 242 all the way down into danville is slow. Back to the desk. Story now about muni, and penalties may come to the young people who dont give up their seat for the elderly. There will be a vote later today. Reporter dave, they are going to address this issue of fees for adults compared with young people, and i got off the phone with a spokesperson from muni who says the issue here is one of equity. Right now a young person who doesnt give up their seat for someone who is elderly or disabled on board, they can face higher fines than an adult who commits the same violation. Adults are given administrative citations and fines can be up to 112. Someone whos under 18 faces criminal penalties and the fees can be up to 380. Later today, munis board of directors is moving to address this disparity, voting on whether to decriminalize youth violations on board buses, and also to put the fines on par with those for adults. One rider we spoke with this morning was surprised to hear young people were being more severely punished. Yes, i am. For a kid, whats happening for kids . They are probably looking at fines, maybe arrest or something of that nature. Maybe they need to close that and treat adults and kids equally. Reporter right now the bus citations for young people with handled by the local court system, meaning young people and their parents have to go down to the court to deal with these violations. Muni is looking at allowing them to address those by mail, online or by phone. The board of directors says they want young people who break the rules on board buses are treated the same as adults. They will take a vote on the matter in the 1 00 meeting this afternoon. Thank you. Muni will also consider changing what it charges to ride the bus or get a residential parking permit. They will talk about raising fares and fees, lifeline passes for the low income going up 3 to 38. Residential parking permits would jump from 111 to 128. The size of the increases are tied to inflation. Muni is not expected to take any action on the increases at least until april. Oakland police are looking for two people who robbed people inside a mens locker room at the 24hour fitness on alameda avenue. Two men walked in and held up everybody inside the locker room, demanding keys, phones and wallets. Time now 7 36. There could finally be good news for commercial crab fishermen later today. Brian flores has more on the important Conference Call. Reporter this Conference Call is really important, scheduled to take place later this morning. But i i want to show you here along Fishermans Wharf this morning, this doesnt look like we are in the heart of the crab fishing season. It is quiet out here, no boats going in and out of the bay this morning, and crab fishing pods have really been along the dock here since last year. They really havent touched the water. This could change this week. At 10 00 this morning there is a Conference Call scheduled for the states Dungeness Crab Task force. Members will hear the latest test results regarding the acid negatively affecting the crab season, caused by algae blooms and could cause nausea and dizziness or shortterm memory loss. Recent tests have shown the levels have gone down, so much so that state officials decided to open the waters to recreational crab fishermen last week, to waters south of point reyes. Last week the governor asked the federal government to call the delayed crabbing season a commercial fisheries disaster, costing the state more than 48 million in lost revenue. A bulk of that revenue for the state and local fishermen was supposed to be during the holiday season, thanksgiving and christmas. Many of these fishermen, one says hes lost half his fishermen taking other jobs to make ends meet. Hopefully well get reaction to the possible crab fishing season opening up later this week. Back to you. Thank you. New this morning, prosecutors in southern germany say human error was to blame for last weeks train crash that killed 11 people and murder ever hurt dozens of others. A criminal investigation is open against the train dispatcher, which mistakenly allowed the two trains on a single track at the same time. Both trains were going more than 60 miles an hour. Belgian officials carried out raids in several areas including the neighborhood where many extremists have been known to say. They seized computers and cell phones and they are being examined for evidence of terrorists plans. These were not linked to the paris attacks last november. The american rock band that was performing when terrorists attacked the music hall in paris, they are taking the stage again in a couple of hours. The eagles of death metal will be performing at the olympic theater in paris. The band says this is a tribute concert, remembering the 89 people who died and others who tried to help everyone get out. Some survivors of the attack say they plan to be there but others say no, its too soon for them to return to paris for any reason. The idea of returning there so soon and being in a venue, i think for me personally, it would be too soon to be there mentally and physically. The lead singer of the band says musicians felt compelled to perform again in paris because, quote, you cant let the bad guys win. He also says he doesnt know why god picked us to be the band but hes grateful for it. This seems like its out of a Science Fiction novel. There are maps of mars now. In minutes, the group behind the maps and how they created them. And well go inside one of the highlightings of Chinese New Years parade in San Francisco and explain what it takes to be part of that huge dragon.

He lectured at universities around the world. Lets take a look at the east bay. When you get to the bay bridge, theres a 20 to 25 minute delay getting into the city before you make it on to the span. We are looking at the san mateo bridge, very slow heading out. 680 is backed up to walnut creek and into danville, highway 4 still slow. This is a bad slowdown, 680 coming toward the veiny sha bridge here, that whole thing is messy. Obviously a lot of people with time off or whoever ever whatever, theyre all back. We have a breeze offshore, still trying to hold on a little bit, not as strong as yesterday. Berkeley hills, 20 to 30 miles an hour and still a breeze around pacifica and daly city, keeping temps up. Napa valley, it will be cold this morning and perfect this afternoon. Not as warm as yesterday but still nice. Officially 78 in napa yesterday, though our observer had 81. Mostly sunny and warm, clouds cooler tomorrow with rain on the way wednesday evening into thursday and maybe even friday as temperatures go way down. High clouds over northern marin county. This system has a way to go. Ive seen many observations showing 53 to 60 around Half Moon Bay. San carlos is 52, east bay temps in the 40s. A lot of these were winddriven yesterday and much warmer than now. 44 walnut creek, antioch 47.

Yesterday could have been 5, 6 degrees cooler but 70s in the mix for today, close to record highs. Looks like sfo is one of the best bets for a new record high today. Tomorrow clouds come in, one more system friday and looking better on the weekend. If you were not able to watch the Grammy Awards last night, here are some of the big moments you missed. Uptown funk. Uptown funk took home best record of the year. Taylor swift got best album for 1989. People also talking about this, lady gagas visual and energetic tribute to david bowie.

Police had been doing surveillance on the home and stopped the vehicle he was in and then took him into custody. Two hours later, a s. W. A. T. Team raided the home as part of a criminal investigation and neighbors learned about the man arrested. Its too close. Too close to home, and we have to just hope these type of things are few.
